    Promoters Conference

    Poland had their meeting & only came up with home riders must be at 6 & 7 but they have massive sponsorship & backing from local councils. Sweden have ben struggling financialy with non payment of some riders & what have they changed. Stop being all "doom & gloom".

    Swedish league 2024 signings, news Etc

    His average is put as 1.404. What is this based on as it is his first season in Sweden? Do they take averages from different leagues as it is not his Prem average divided by 4 to give heat average? Is it based on his Polish average? (don't know where to find them, sorry). Are the different race formulas in both leagues or the same?

    Sport related Manslaughter charge

    Is there not an incident which was brought up not long ago of 2 female rugby players, one of which when tackled was on the ground bent over & the attacker jumped on top of her fracturing her neck or spine & is now confined to a wheelchair. The said attacker, apparently, had history & was done for Actual Bodily Harm. https://www.mirror.co.uk/sport/rugby-union/paralysed-rugby-compensation-court-case-29296088

    I hope we don't move up to make the numbers up(2 + 2 = 5) as we would need Ryan & he is rumoured to be with you again.

    You got a bit of a sweet tooth? Bourbons, chocolate Hob-Nobs(they are good), ..........

    And the many sponsors & fans who have whip rounds for injured riders or mechanical issues.

    Promoters Conference

    It seems some posters think that it will be a holiday jaunt. How long will the meetings take? 6-8 hours? May be a break in between? Any one would think they are having the meetings on the beach, on sun loungers, drinking San Miguel, sangria or pina coladas!

    Promoters Conference

    You keep repeating yourself over & over again. My post was based on last years AGM(Nov '22) in RUGBY, ENGLAND with decisions changed at the last minute. Even Danny Ford mentioned to his local press a few days before the AGM that the points limit was 42.

    But, if like last year, there is nothing left to discuss then why did some teams with NDL sides say that we can not fit in all the fixtures so 2A 2H will have to go & only have 1H 1A plus the BSN & KOC competitions. Also, we will reduce the team declaration points from 42 to 40.

    Needed some news to keep us on page 1 but not this.

    Richie Worrall statement

    It seems strange to me that 2 riders from different clubs have tested positive for the same 2 substances.

    Hasn't he had a knee problem these last 2 years? Knocks you mentally & confidence wise!

    Berwick 2024

    So, you must run around at 100mph but just be patient. We all know that the AGM is 11th Nov & after last years 2 late changes( agreed before the AGM in monthly meetings but changed at the last minute) of 42 points down to 40 & 2H2A changed to 1H1A, all will be revealed later.

    Don't Poland ride Thurs, Fri, Sat, Sun ....... Denmark Wed ....... Sweden Tue. Clashes?

    Got to be Two leagues then

    MTV has just contradicted himself with his 1st & last paragraphs. If say Killeen, Boughen or Harrison come in at no 7 & beat fellow reserves & the occasional 2nd strings they could, potentially, be running with a 5 point average but you say in your 1st part that they have to stay at no7. Yet in your last part(not beating heat leaders), you are saying that they should not stay in their protected no7!

    Scunthorpe 2024

    The way he has Dougie's bikes singing, would he come back as a rider? Sorry Joanne, only kidding. Still needs the rider to twist the throttle & ride the right lines. Put a CL rider on Zmarzlik's bikes, would he then become a GP rider? No!

    Scunthorpe 2024

    The teams I had scribbled down before contained Dougie so needed to change. (Douglas, Pickering, S Lambert, Z Kennedy, D Kennedy, Harrison, A N Other). The other team used riders from this year(Douglas, Allen, Toft, Lambert, Z Kennedy, D Kennedy, Harrison). This came to nearly 40 though. I also had both Kennedy's as Declan done a few meetings already but has a decent job & rides for fun. Zaine has just had his 1st meeting. They could share accommodation & travel easing their costs. Due to the latest snippets of a 38 point limit & using riders that could still improve(the main aim), we could have a 2024 line up of S Worrall, K Howarth, S Lambert, C Mountain, D Kemp, Z Kennedy & L Harrison note; just had a notification that Pickering might have a change in heart in riding in the Championship so would change Howarth for Pickering & a 4 point rider.

    We need a new manager as well. Dave Peet steps down. Many thanks Dave.

    Poole 2024

    Pickering & Douglas have already said that they are not doing the Championship but want to, personally, try to progress in the higher leagues in Europe against better riders.

    Scunthorpe 2024

    Tapped up around the end of August according to some before his proposed move went flat. Having the bad leg injury probably made his mind up to leave.
  23. League then play offs took priority.

    A Jake Allen return?

    Scunthorpe v Poole - 2023 KOC Final

    You say that you bought the stream but you must have had it on mute! He wants to "upgrade" by riding against better riders in possibly Sweden. He does ride in Poland BUT in Liga 2 for Rawicz. He says he is moving up to Polish Liga 1 but in International Section it has him signed for Poznan who finished 7th(last) in Liga 1.(possible relegation?)( unsure on their rules in this matter)
