In a word - yes.

Last year, it was only top 3. 3 x 4 qualifies plus 4 wildcards in the GP Challenge.

Glad to hear. A club with the heritage of Eastbourne would be a welcome addition to the Championship.

Just remember team building is like a jigsaw. At one point, Scunny may have only been able to fit in a certain rider. Then another rider may change. Rob G knew all along which riders were entitled to the 2.5% discount. Personally, I'm quite happy that we ended up with Jason Garrity. Steve Worrall's rolling average may be higher, but going on just last year's performances alone, then Garrity was the more accomplished performer.

Scunthorpe are Fridays at 7.30pm

Spot on.

It will be in both the Speedway Star and Scunthorpe Telegraph first thing in the morning. And then the Scunny website will be updated as well.

Two more riders to be announced tonight, at around 9pm.

I will miss coming and sitting with you guys on the back straight.

Drew Kemp.

Josh Auty – upped his game to become one of the best riders in the league this year. All the other riders listed have had good seasons, but pretty much stayed where they were.

If we sign up to the ISLB agreement. Maybe we shouldn't do that. Riders would have a choice - they ride in Poland or they ride over here. We need Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. If this year has proven anything, it's that running mid-week (with the notable exception of one or two tracks) is financial suicide. Put speedway on a night when the fans will come, because you need to look after the supporters as your No 1 priority. And then the riders have to fit into that. As I said, no more tail wagging the dog.

Who actually cares what nights that Poland uses? Friday, Saturday and Sunday are the best nights for attendances, so we should use them. The riders then have a simple choice. It's about time the tail stopped wagging the dog.

What's so special about Thursdays? Surely crowds are bigger on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays. I would suggest one big league, with all fixtures taking place on a Friday, Saturday or Sunday.
