And a further problem is 16.3.3 A rider in a Team's declared 1 - 7 at the end of the previous season and not included in that Team’s new season’s initial declaration may not be subsequently re-introduced into that Team from the 2018 Rulebook Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Final sentence is "without the express permission of the Management Committee" As Wilson-Dean has been put on the sidelines through no fault of his own, but by Workington closing, a request to reintroduce him at Somerset would probably be granted. But on the other hand, would they want him? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

CountyGround 75 Posted February 17, 2019 PLAY OFF CONTENDERS Is it only me that I can see no point of the "Play offs" were they not introduced for the benefit of Sky ref. the Elite league? The Championship "Play off" winners won't be getting promoted the following year, so whats the point! I would rather see an end of season K. O. Cup. I've said it before but I think the promoters have taken their eye off the main event, I think we the supporters want weekly entertainment. The Promoters put all their efforts into winning maximum league points by any method with entertainment & good speedway not top of their shopping list...... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

What about bringing the old silver helmet match races & meaningful second half racing back ( they were the good old days ) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do you think any current promotions genuinely give a toss about bringing on young uns? The vast majority of M/SDL teams are all organised and run by devoted individuals despite clubs/BSPA best attempts to hold them back (i agree the NJL is a little different). Until everyone stops thinking about the next meeting and has a genuine view to the future there will be no future. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
