It shouldn't since CWG tickets included public transport within the West Midlands but I don't wish to get caught out. On 8/8/2022 at 4:41 PM, Skidder1 said: CWG finish today. The CWG are over but the traffic management and parking restrictions (at least as they affect the residential areas) continue for the rest of the week. There's ample parking at the One Shop Stopping Centre, and the new road layout provides you with a simple right hand turn option outside the main entrance when coming southbound down the A34. Access to the OSSC is traffic light controlled and seems to work well. It's far better than in previous years when you had to go around the Crown & Cushion roundabout and double back on yourself. Give it a go, you may be pleasantly surprised. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So, is the "visa issue" just an excuse of convenience? Is he actually withholding his services and the people are being shielded from the truth so that he doesn't end his season with a 28-day ban? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I doubt Jonas would've been riding for Berwick anyway tonight as this is a re-arranged fixture and Knudson is racing in Denmark tonight. At this rate we will be lucky to see Jonas in Berwick`s colours again this season. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not sure of which topic I read this on but Knudson was signed on a 28 day visa which started on the rained off meeting Berwick v Scunthorpe 25/6 which expired on Sat 23rd July which was why he could race on the Saturday but not away on the Sunday. His working visa would take approx. 7 weeks which I understood, should have started early August so it is late in being verified/issued. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

What date did Berwick actually apply for the visa is more to the point. They can only trundle out the current visa narrative for so long, its become tiresome. Why not come out and say we are protecting Knudsens average for 2023 and be done with it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are 3 Berwick riders with a bigger home/away differential: Etheridge, Flint and Pijper. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
