Gazc Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Where is Bobby's outrage on this as he seemed to be outraged at signing a Pole without a visa that did have a visa tut tut. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No go in the Championship. What a farce just let him ride.It’s not his fault that the Team dropped him,if he is happy to comeback and ride for them and his average fits let him ride,it better that the farcical rising star situation where Flint will be guesting for the highest bidder for the rest of the season( through no fault of his own,just through the ill thought out rules as usual) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jamie Posted September 18, 2021 Report Share Posted September 18, 2021 Did the transfer deadline apply to the NL as well as the top two leagues? If so, I can understand why the powers that be wouldn't allow William to sign for Armadale. Going beyond that, he is therefore not in a declared 1-7 and so can't guest in Championship or above. If the deadline does not apply, then the decision would be illogical, albeit not completely unsurprising. Nathan Greaves has a lot to answer for, leaving not one but two teams well and truly in the lurch. I hope he's proud of himself. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A bit harsh on Greaves,when your struggling losing money and having a sh#t time,riding a speedway bike can’t be much fun. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree to a certain extent. Just unfortunate he retired after Monarchs dropped William Lawson. We can only use Leon Flint at reserve to replace Drew Kemp. So essentially going into play offs with 5 riders in our team with guest reserve and possibly R/R at 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Personally I would say that if your heart and mind aren't totally in it then riding a 500cc monster probably isn't the best idea for you ir those you race with.

He decent at Armadale at reserve and r/r for Rowe looks a good option now that you have Kemp.Finding a guest for Rowe with such a small average is a bigger gamble IMo.

If he was struggling and losing money at the start of September, it follows that he was also struggling and losing money at the end of August. Therefore, if he wished to quit, at least have the courtesy to do it before the deadline and give us a chance to replace him. 8 hours ago, Bagpuss said: Hi pal hope you are well. Ouch!

For the avoidance of doubt, I did like Nathan Greaves. I was happy when we signed him. "He'll do a job" I thought. And he did for a while. Seems like the crash at Beirut was the beginning of the end for him. Told you it was a second rate ploughed field 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
