Looking at the filing history the last accounts filed were for the year ended 2022

I think they know what's what when it comes to visa issues in fairness

Thats an interesting angle, presumably in a speedway scenario the 3rd party has to be approved by the BSPL?

So as its the club thats been suspended (rather than Zagar for Brum for example) does that suggest an issue with the sponsor licence?

There has to be a reset on costs (for promoters and fans) soon if its to survive in anything like its current format Some tough decisions to be made i think but will they...

Rumours also that Leicester are struggling with crowds. Grim news when these purpose built venues that are always held up as the way forwards hit difficulties I hope its resolved soon

Sam Masters for Pickers Zach Cook for Rowe

Absolutely, the legal fees could be substantial if the matter ends up in the lands tribunal. Be interesting to see if the Council are prepared to do this in the current financial climate. I wonder what offer they'd make for the CPO? You'd pretty much expect BE to appeal whatever it is though

Cheers

Harris is a 6 pointer, was at the start of the season and will be at the end What's his current GSA?

I suspect much revolves around the suggestion (not confirmed anywhere that I've seen) a couple of months ago that Owlerton had been sold. See the Sheffield 2025 thread for those posts

And Oxford potentially not running 3 teams

Anyone "buying" anything in speedway needs their head testing

Perhaps MJJ had only signed a short term contract until say 31 May?

As everyone has known since the start of the season

Also stops people moaning about the team I'd imagine

Cook will end up with a 5 point Premiership average if he rides enough matches

60-30

Correct. You can't redeclare with a rider who isn't eligible to ride named in the side Replace Vuolas you have to replace Zagar

It sort of reads that way, as Zagar is ineligible they couldn't redeclare with him in the side. I'll be amazed if we see him again though Whatever their options they've replaced a heat leader and a reserve with 2 reserves

Castagna and Hume replace Zagar and Vuolas

Could be 5

They'll beat Oxford with the current set up. If Zagar isn't coming back then they've a problem finding another heat leader. Might be a Sheffield type double change which wouldn't be exciting and wouldn't likely make much difference overall

No riders of a decent standard who aren't here already want to ride here ask Sheffield Oxford and Birmingham are hopeless but other than some lower/middle order tinkering what can they do

I can't see a CPO in this climate plus it would undoubtedly be subject to a legal challenge (depending on the cpo price) that would potentially incur the council in substantial legal costs I'd say negotiation remains the only hope for Cov however slim that possibility is. I do however wish them all the very best
