How other people feel about him I'm not going to try and affect how others feel about him, all I can go on is my experiences of him as a Glasgow rider and that's what my opinion of him is based on 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Get what you deserve out of life Get what your saying but I find it difficult to not like Bomber and let’s be honest when he is in the mood he is box office. Being on a guarantee was a mistake and one I hope we have learned from, we must take some of the blame for that decision and should have offloaded him after a few meetings.

Everyone open to their own opinion Gaz. What will always stick in my throat is showed up on the Sunday, sure was an Edinburgh match, scored 5/6 points, couldn't wait to disappear. You find out why next night was guesting for Poole in either grand final or semi final and he's a world beater, doing lasts to firsts etc. In other words two fingers up to the club employed him for the season the guest booking was more important. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He should have went instead of Richie Worrall , and his home ef against Workington in.the play off semi cost us a place in the final. But you're right , he is box office , I was lucky enough to be at Cardiff the night he won the British GP . What a night that was Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Sport really is starting to crack at the seams.Struggle to run meeting due to staffing levels is not good news.(Mostly volunteers) Lack of Paramedics is a real concern as the situation on that front is not going to improve quickly,and is a major headache( apart from expense). l 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

crescent girl Posted July 12, 2022 Author Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 (edited) Once again, the FTS Bandits lose a rider to international duty, with Leon Flint called up by Team GB to contest U-19 Euro Pairs (with Oxford's Sam Hagon) in Latvia on Saturday. However, the squad welcome back former captain Aaron 'Spud' Summers to take Leon's place for what is a very important cup-tie against the Bears, who have snapped up former Bandit Kyle Bickley following the closure of Newcastle. Kyle remains at Berwick as a Bullet, captaining the NDL squad, and will doubtless be anxious to prove the Bandits wrong for letting him move on. Following the main event, there will be another NJL mini-match, this week between Berwick's Academy youngsters and Tees=side Tigers. FTS Bandits: 1 Chris Harris (capt), 2 Theo Pijper, 3 Jye Etheridge, 4 Ricky Wells, 5 Aaron Summers (guest), 6 Jonas Knudsen, 7 Nathan Stoneman Bears: 1 Charles Wright, 2 Jason Edwards, 3 Erik Riss, 4 Kasper Andersen, 5 Lewis Kerr, 6 Kyle Bickley, 7 Jordan Jenkins Academy: 1 Ace Pijper, 2 Owen Booth, 3 Stene Pijper, 4 Liam Morris Tigers: 1 Edward Davidson, 2 Laylen Richardson, 3 Dan McTeer, 4 Rocco Webb To encourage their preferred policy of pre-payment, the club will continue their "Kids Go Free" deal for customers who their tickets online. Adults £17, Concession/OAP/Students £13, accompanied Juniors (12-15) £5 -- free if booked online. Accompanied Children (Under 12) £1 -- free if booked online.
