    Not sure how easy a congealed lump of plastic will be to mould though.

    Oxford Cheetahs 2024

    Tarasenko fits
  3. I've been to too many of these now. What makes a successful farewell is engagement with fans memories. Exeter set the gold standard (Honey Sandford's laying a bouquet in memory of her father, and Ivan's final lap). Despite a fairly mundane field Reading's benefited from a bumper turn out of former riders (plus Dave Lanning and Diddy David Hamilton). Peterborough on the other hand was a disgrace - a chat with David Howe (who just happened to be there spannering) and that was about it. I'm confident tonight will be a good (if teary) send-off.
  4. Congrats to Scunny on a dramatic and well deserved victory
  5. Yes. It happened in SGP2 this season which uses the same system. Will Drejer got 8 from 4 reserve rides in Vojens and went on to the semi (and final) scoring 16 GP points for finishing third

    Workington 2024

    Poole have a good record at restructuring teams when necessary. I suspect that whatever the points limit they will prove more astute than their rivals at putting together a septet under the new points limit whatever it is.
  9. Bit it would appear Jack Smith was riding in Austria
  10. Dan was riding at Leicester last night. So unless that exhausting parade lap did for him...
  11. And remember how after last year Leicester assured us they had sorted out their drainage problems. Do you think that might have been wishful thinking?

    Playoff Final

    Not according to the rule book
  13. Indeed. Clearly we are being too naive in believing that the SCB regulations are a reliable source in such circumstances. There is also a big double standard in that Atkins (and Jenkins if fit) appear to have been punished by exclusion from this meeting for doing exactly what Thompson (J) and Ablitt are now doing.

    Brandon Update

    No. The council has a statutory obligation to draw up local plan containing appropriate planning policies for the area and designating land uses. However the plan goes through a long process including consultation and potentially public enquiry. Any plan policy saying the land must be used for a particular sport would be regarded as too narrow and never get through. The present policy is about as strong as could realistically be expected.
  15. So a grand total of FIVE of the originally qualified line-up (Clegg, Complin, Morley and the Comets duo) are expected to race.
  16. I discussed this with an SCB referee after giving a 15 year old alcohol as a 'man of the match' award. It is clearly against the rules.
  17. Er no he should be at Worky exactly the same as Ablitt
  18. I'd choose Ashton Boughen (assuming Joe T and Max Perry are the Leicester representatives at Worky)
  19. When THE BSPL decide it no longer exists.
  20. Think it's a question if when rather than if it rains, but median forecast suggests 9pm so fingers crossed
  21. Just put in a sell on clause. If a new stadium materialises then further payment is due to Buster. Common in land sales where if planning permission is subsequently obtained by the new owner some of that increase in value is returned to the old owner.
  22. My word you are a humourless over sensitive delicate little flower.
  23. I'm sure every morning Tarasenko wakes up and the first thing he thinks is "what is the Bournnemouth Echo saying today"
