I would think not, it's unfair to expect a rider to remain on standby if another club offers them a spot in their team! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm assuming the PJL will be far weaker than the likes of Hume riding in it! Also plans for last year was 2 home & 2 away matches, so the number 8 wouldn't be at all the matches with the junior team anyway! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bash 496 Posted December 6, 2021 They said there will a PJL meeting after all the main matches so they will be at all matches supposedly, but this is British speedway, like they said there would be two RS riders in the Premiership this year but that hasn't happened.

kevin bass 247 Posted December 6, 2021 So as Danyon has now signed f Glasgow in the other league who gets first dibs if there's a fixture class, Ipswich coz he signed for them first or Glasgow coz he's part of their 1-7 and not a number 8 on standby.

Just because Ipswich named him first , does not necessarily mean they signed him first, they may have but only the promotions know the date contract has been signed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Won't be an issue as Ipswich (PL) have protected race nights on Monday / Thursday. Glasgow (CL) not allowed to ride on those nights as PL protected Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
2ndbendbeerhut 1,781 Posted December 6, 2021 So as a number 8 can guest for another team.... they could guest against their own team 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) This is pro speedway,,, anything could happen,,, he can probably be our number 8 and guest for the opposition in the same meeting,,, possibly even see himself racing himself in heats 2 and 8,,, Obviously it could get a little confusing if he knocks himself off,, and who gets excluded Edited December 6, 2021 by Baldyman 2 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arch Stanton 2,241 Posted December 6, 2021 (edited) That reminds me of the time Reading rocked up with a couple of riders missing, we had Rory as a guest, he took off his Witches bib, jumped over to the other side of the pits and put on a Reading bib, and both clubs then ran R/R to make it a bit of a contest Edited December 6, 2021 by Arch Stanton 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
