Bojangles Posted October 11 Report Share Posted October 11 (edited) 3 minutes ago, Fromafar said: These were racing incidents caused by some very inexperienced riders .These things happen in the sport. We saw senior riders knocking lumps out of each others on the 1st/2nd bend,without coming to grief,that’s the difference.Its a tough sport. Did you see Foord in the first leg at Oxford, or the U19 championship? He's definitely a bit reckless, but has speed. Just needs to learn to tone it down a bit - and more importantly listen to advice from some more senior riders.

Tried to ride Lubos off his bike at Stoke coming off the 4th bend and then came around and stood on his bike dangerously revving his bike pointing at Lubos being attended on the ground by track staff and medics. Crazy guy copying his father and egged on by one of the promotion and crowd. Not the only incident Diamond fans hate him of course. 😉 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AFCB Wildcat Posted October 12 Report Share Posted October 12 I've only just gotten to watch it. Seems unfair to single out Vinnie. There were a lot of hard moves by the Poole team as a whole. As Thomsen said, Vinnie was just "sharing the stunts" I think that's what he said anyway 🤔 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They were shouting at him before he did anything, so he could have not reacted and they would still have been shouting. Maybe not as crazy but they still would have. You only want him banned because he rides for Poole. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he's referring to the clown of a father rather than the rider, he did need throwing out of the stadium for his antics, absolute bellend and it's no wonder his son has that similar attitude.

He didn't have a go at the paramedic when a rider was on the floor. That is in the rule book as a throwing out of the stadium incident. But in the heat of the moment you let these things run.

Yeah, but it's a blow up air fence and not a polyfoam, so meetings might last longer than we're used to 😄 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup 100% . Surprised it hasn't already happened tbh. Referees will also be keeping an eye on his every "move" and he'll find his exclusion light on in every " incident" whether or not he was to blame.
