Danny Kents problems

[coffee]

After being handed a lifeline with Leon Camiers MV Agusta he's now lost that ride after being given a suspended jail sentence for a knife crime,apparently he came upon his brother being held down by a bloke in a scuffle and pushed him off and a kitchen knife he had on him fell on the floor and the bloke involved in the scuffle picked it up and took it to the police who then arrested Danny for carrying it,he said he was carrying it as part of his work,but it didn't wash with the judge who gave him a suspended jail sentence.His boss of the racing team must have given him the elbow immediately,'cause Gino Rea has got his ride at Cadwell.I'm not sticking up for Danny with regards to the crime,I don't know enough about it,but when your lucks running rough it seems one thing after another,I've always rated him and hope this isn't the end of his career.

Read that earlier today. Trouble is there's far too many talented riders chasing a very limited number of rides. All teams need sponsors who want media exposure for their product, so can't see a company happy to be associated with someone whose misdemeanor falls within the knife crime spectrum, especially in the current climate. A shame, but hasn't done himself any favours.
