  1. Past hour
  2. If you have a brilliant season in the Championship your looking at 17 home meetings. 8 League 4 BSN includes Semi& Final, KO Cup 3, Playoffs 2. So Berwick could open May 2nd and have 25 Saturdays to race 17 meetings. It would be 27 but obviously i have taken Glasgow GP Round and British GP into account
  3. Had had to leave the UK because he couldn't afford to ride in one league.
  4. I believe he was contacted regarding an academy spot and NJL spot then told us he’d signed for Glasgow in the NJL so put an end to that conversation pretty fast. I know a space was also open for Mark if he wanted to continue riding but he’s taking time out of the sport for the time being I believe.
  5. On your remark on Liam was there a team for him ?
  6. I think it’s a bit of confusion with the name, they have the same first name
  7. My point is and you have mentioned there not too enough for the new NDL most of them have ridden in the NDL last year so what do they do give up or the phone To ring
  8. Personally don't think there are any minor Fim events they are all major in each individual age category.
  9. Pretty sure Marks not ring anymore, the other two don’t think are good enough for NDL yet. Liam maybe just but he’s decided after the academy bringing him on to move to Glasgow in the NJL so that’s that bridge burnt.
  10. Yes other riders and teams will be affected. Think a lot of people/fans don't realise how many of these major and minor FIM meetings affect British speedway, and at a cost to said riders and family to travel
  11. Think Scunthorpe may have a similar problem with Luke
  12. This company was formed in August, more than likely the operating company for the GPs
  13. Not controversial, but I think the logistics are slightly different with Doyle being in the GPs and if you can believe all that is written about the SPG, riders need to fund the riding themselves because the pay out is pretty meagre. When you consider the cost of travel, accommodation, mechanics etc. which the riders have to cover they are not in it for the money. Both riders need sponsors but Doyle’s income needs are likely to be greater than Tom and therefore needs to get some good sponsors onboard asap to be able to ensure the income is in place to meet the outgoings and still leave some take home pay but is conscious of the fact that to get the sponsors to promote on meetings covered by TV he needs to be sure of where the money is coming from. Selling himself and the sport to sponsors cannot be easy and at a lower level, the same applies to Tom. In summary I don’t blame him for getting his house in order as soon as possible and if that means being assured a team place elsewhere, so be it.
  14. Today
  15. The main and Micky mouse FIM meetings are the big problem for weekend championship fixtures, take my team worky, both Tate and the new young Dane will be in official GP 2 qualifications and various U19 and U24 meetings, pairs and fours, seemed last year was a FIM or European meeting most weekends in June July and August
  16. They’re just kicking the can down the road. Same old same old. It can’t go on .
  17. Is that to see that they have enough clashes with FIM meetings, and domestic individual meetings like the U21 Championship, to smash out of the park that 196 guest total from last year?
  18. Busy atm but years a start Mark Parker owen booth Liam greens
  19. I think the important thing to note is that with all the delays and speculation that the damage to the brand could be irreparable. It could be that you a small oil leak 3 years ago but now your engine has seized as you spoke about the repair but done naff all about it! ( I'm talking speedway in general and not just Ipswich).
  20. Just how can the NL ( it can no longer be classed as a ‘D’ league, surely ?) arrange fixtures? when most of the clubs hosting them are in the other leagues and so have to wait till those fixtures are sorted !
