Fromafar Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 2 hours ago, screm said: Sums things up perfectly when a rider is off chasing the big pennies in Poland first chance he gets, so much for loyalty. Funny thing is Redcar seem quite happy with it. If you allow riders to take an inch, don't be surprised if they take a mile. It’s a nothing fixture for the Clubs involved.

StevePark Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 2 hours ago, Bojangles said: That's your opinion. I was stating a fact. Poland has priority on a Sunday, I don't know why this is so hard to understand. I believe Wright signed as injury cover for Wroclaw around August 10, a good three weeks before Woffinden got injured at Cardiff, so not sure where you got your info from. If Wright was to ride for Redcar on Sunday, he would be withholding his services in Poland - not the other way around. Am I right in thinking, if he missed the Polish fixture (and rode for Redcar), he'd get an FIM ban, so would wouldn't be able to ride for anybody, anywhere? Or is that not the case (I believe it used to be, but they keep moving the "goalposts" so it's difficult to keep up!)? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LagutaRacingFan Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 Me and many others didn't vote for Brexit so people like Charles Wright can ride in Poland ahead of Britain. The BSPA need to do something. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Biffa Posted September 8, 2023 Author Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 So what about the CLRC that was raced on a Sunday, Masters, Basso, Pickering & S Worrall all were pulled out by their Polish clubs/ fixture list and that was a BSPL EVENT. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bloom89 Posted September 8, 2023 Report Share Posted September 8, 2023 Wow quite an opportunity for wright! I hope he does himself justice and grabs the opportunity with both hands. Nobody can have any complaints it’s been agreed Poland have Sunday priority whatever meeting is being raced why can’t people understand this. 5 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
allthegearbutnaeidea Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 What a read this thread has been, a rollercoaster. Some people just not grasping it. How dare he not ride for Redcar on a Sunday rather than the Ekstraliga play off semi final infront of a sell out crowd with Laguta, Bewley, Janowski as teammates! 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SharpenRake Posted September 9, 2023 Report Share Posted September 9, 2023 Both teams missing riders and for very good reasons, as has been explained patiently by many folk earlier. From a Glasgow point of view it provides an opportunity for some of our team to get vital laps around the excellent Redcar track prior to the play-offs. Can't wait! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted September 10, 2023 Report Share Posted September 10, 2023 Is Pijper out? I wouldn’t be surprised after Friday night’s crash. If it was me, I’d still be lying in intensive care, but he walked away from it. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly - forecasts I’ve seen say possibility of rain around late afternoon/early evening. Sunny and warm at the moment though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
