Belle Vue v Ipswich 22nd April

That would depend on the traffic I would suggest keep checking the traffic reports and adjust your journey accordingly, common sense really. -

Possibly, because he said "heavy traffic" delayed him getting to the airport, if you have a plane to get you should assume heavy traffic/accidents/etc and leave home earlier than needed, it might mean sitting around in an airport lounge but at least you wouldn't need to use lame excuses for missing a plane. -

He didn't miss his plane, he was sitting on it when passengers had to get off due to technical issues -

I daresay they are trying to work out what to do/say as unlike Tungate he didn't miss his flight he was actually on the plane. Personally I don't think Doyle/Ipswich should be penalised for something that was clearly not their fault. -

There is an SCB statement , Doyle was on the plane but all passengers has to disembark due to a technical issue, I don't think there was much Jason could do about that unless he had his toolbox with him -
Witches v Lions KOC 2nd Leg April 4th

It is showing it as on with a preview of the meeting but on the same website the fixture list has been showing it as off for quite a while now, as you say not very impressive -
I'm of the older fan base, I hear swearing on the streets etc I don't like it but I accept its now part of life but when a Media day is to promote something as a sport for all to watch the excessive swearing used by Tai was unacceptable. His comments about punch ups on track and how they the riders should be paid/applauded as they put the viewing figures through the roof were also out of order. If there's an incident on track and in the heat of the moment riders resort to fisticufs it happens so be it, let the referee put it in his report etc but to use it to promote speedway is wrong. Phil Morris should hold more media days, with louder microphones, but have a word with riders/participants first about what is or is not acceptable, surely people can make a relevant point minus the bad language.

Peter Craven Memorial Trophy - Monday 18th March.

Perhaps he could have a word with some of his relatives on behalf of all of Eagles fans re allowing speedway back at Arlington - we live in hope -
Perhaps if there is another broadcast live conference and also when being interviewed during live streamed meetings riders should be told beforehand to moderate their language, surely they can discuss/make comments without the swearing then they would come across as more professional.

Well done to all the Save Coventry Group, lets hope this is one step closer to bringing back Speedway to Brandon.

Genuine question, is there a scale/table of fines ie £1500 for failing a drug test, £3000 for bringing the sport into disrepute etc or is a figure just plucked out of the air and also what happens if the fine isn't paid, does it just increase (like parking tickets) or do bailiffs get sent in or is it just written off?

How is the following condition to work when obviously if you have a booked drug test on a certain date you won't be partaking in the previous couple of days unless you are really stupid . "Must undergo regular testing, furnishing the results to the SCB, for the two months prior to resuming racing, at his own expense."
