LisaColette Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 6 hours ago, wtf said: personally I find Erik's description of his symptoms and situation very disturbing. He's confessing to racing with blurred vision! Then thinking about whether to do it again. At what point, should he have to pass some sort of fitness test, before riding again. Not sure I'd want to be one of the other three lining up along side him when he admits his vision is blurred! Has he edited it, can't see where it says blurred vision anymore?!

LisaColette Posted June 15, 2023 Report Share Posted June 15, 2023 Never mind, it still says he has blurry vision in the German section. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I think he's edited it, it definitely said had blurred vision twice when I first read it. Someone should have told him you need to edit the German section as well, translation software is very handy.

Arthur73 Posted June 16, 2023 Report Share Posted June 16, 2023 Would danyon's 25% reduction and Danny's 5% still be taken into account if we were to get some new riders in? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Has he though? Weren't much cop last season until going down to reserve,, where his average increased to what it is now,,, Also I thought he is still suffering from blurred vision whilst racing,,, pretty dangerous I would have thought Edited June 17, 2023 by Baldyman Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has you’re right, so Ipswich have been a little unlucky there. But even with a fit Riss I think we’re at the stage where we’ve got to accept we’ve ballsed the team building up below the top two unfortunately. Reading the comments from Redcar supporters Riss looked uncomfortable against Poole and still not his usual self so I’m unsure what difference his return will actually make. We’ll see.

The big balls up was putting King anywhere near this team, far to hit & miss last season & has proved so agin this 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Granted it would've been hoped (perhaps expected) to rise Rew meanwhile is at least 2 points under expectation and just posted a zero at reserve That situation plus missing Riss is the root cause of the current position imo 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny is a real concern for me. Whenever there is a pressure race he seems to crumble even if he gates he gets easily passed. Watching Redcar on Friday as I regularly do he failed to score in heats 13 and 15 and got passed on the last lap in the superheat by gating tart Richard Lawson thus giving Poole two league points danny has been a fantastic servant to the club and is probably the nicest man in speedway it’s sad to see him struggling but it’s so frustrating to see him getting passed so easily and often by the opposition and yet a team mate often gets blocked by him as he is totally unaware of where his team mate is because he never ever looks til coming off the final bend 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He has been in positions to do better and lost out (often quite tamely) and that justifiably adds to the frustrations and the validity of more negative opinions Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
