How long can you use a guest for a banned rider ?it's a joke 

as its not the clubs fault i'd say the 28 day rule should apply 

and i guess that's up now.

club again shouldn't benefit from this either.

After last night's "outcome" and last year with Ben Barker, we only ever hear about tests when a rider "fails" Apart from these 2 random tests  I as wondering how many other drug tests are carried out each year? 

Could be random 2 riders every meeting?

Or maybe track gets visited once a month? 

Or maybe just once  a year? 

Like I said we have heard now of 2 tests and 2 failures, maybe they not random after all? 

 

And another random test catches 2 with a non negative result.....

Lions didn’t use a guest for Morris at any point following the offence taking place. 
That said, it’s difficult to see how in similar circumstances, using a facility can be regarded as beneficial to a club.

Look at Brum.

Nick Morris GSA 8.82

Actual average in 2023 league fixtures 6.84

Average of guests used since drug suspension : 8.86

Looks like a huge bonus(at least in terms of scoring capacity) for Birmingham to me.

Are my eyes playing tricks on me or have I just read that two riders in the one meeting failed drug tests?

The testers know who they're after, normally through tip-offs, that's why their success rate is so high.

Who actually does the testing in UK speedway? Is it the same VADA that föcked Robert Helenius?

Silly boys. Wonder if both were in Cardiff during the weekend and someone seen something and reported it?

Worrall having another test done with an external testing outfit proves nothing, as stated somewhere else cocaine can be out the system in 48 hours and alcohol even less.
