He didn't go on holiday - that was Ryan Douglas and your precious Steve Worrall. Sam's partner had visa requirements that meant he needed to leave the UK. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wolves knew the situation and agreed not to ride that day... until they were forced to! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But a holiday is still a holiday. Nothing to do with 'Australia releasing him' !! He wasn't in Poland lol. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was nice to see a rider putting his club ahead of other activities for a change though, shame it wasn't meant to be, obviously family comes first.

Dickie Head Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 So does Scott get a 7 day ban for missing the fixture for a non speedway absence? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope the BSPA would understand Scott’s situation (which as they have allowed a guest for him suggests they do) it is no different to having compassionate leave in a regular job. This is as the statement said to do with his family no conspiracy theories here. I would rather Scott missed a meeting than turn up with his mind elsewhere that’s when accidents happen. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

While I agree wholeheartedly with the sentiments of your post, technically he's withholding his services as I assume was Hans Andersen last night, which last year at least carried a 28 day ban 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scott was allowed to miss a meeting when Penny was born and didn’t get a ban (other riders have also done this) I guess as you say he could be seen as withholding his services however, it would not look good if they forced him to race in the circumstances. The Lynn meeting was a joke Andersen did not ride as he “missed his plane”, Laguta apparently injured his wrist at the weekend although I can’t see that he crashed plus he scored 13 points. But at the same time in the original schedule there weren’t meetings planned for this week due to the SWC racing, but with the backlog of fixtures the powers that be changed this. Which is why Sam Masters had other arrangements for this week, and there is no talk of a ban for him. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope you're right with the Nicholls thing, apparently the Hans thing was genuine as he sent a picture of the traffic jam he was in that made him miss the plane to his ex-manager over here, Laguta... hmm. Wouldn't Masters have been classed to have been on international duty? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t think Sam was named in the squad, otherwise he wouldn’t have arranged to be elsewhere or as someone else said he was given permission to be away.

Technik Posted July 28, 2023 Report Share Posted July 28, 2023 It's more laughable each & every time it happens. Hans in a traffic jam.... I'm in a traffic jam most mornings on the M25 i could take a picture at 07:00 & send it at 14:00 but what does it prove? Laguta with a wrist injury.... How? is there a record? it will be interesting to know if Scott will be at SWC for the play off tonight.. Lets wait & see 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lets wait & see I would be extremely surprised if Scott will be anywhere near Poland tomorrow, that’s not his priority at the moment and will probably be the very last thing on his mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
