Will he get a visa?

Brady’s performance on Monday really highlighted the big miss he was in our KO Cup campaign. These things happen but it would be easier to take if we had missed out as a full team rather than the usual, it is what it is. 12 points makes the bonus point interesting. I’m expecting things to get back to normal for us down at Foxhall after the witches fabulous championship season. Prior to that barnstorming year, Foxhall was our happiest of hunting grounds with The Aces going well there. The last ten fixtures at Foxhall prior to the witches title winning year were DLLLWWWLLW with one of those losses being a last heat decider. 50% success rate for the witches, so I’m hoping we get back to winning ways down there again.

Morris is a good choice of guest for Leon on Friday and possibly Jason Edwards for the away leg. However cover for Mario seems more problematic. Have we really listed KJP as the higher of our two 5.00 riders? It's a very poor call if we have, meaning the RR rides are taken by KJP with the reserves sharing the other three. Guests are very limited as there are surprisingly few in the 4+ category particularly on Friday when Redcar (Pijper, Mulford and Scott) are already riding, leaving Simon Lambert and Kyle Newman as options, not great.

This is the main situation, there are so many TVs, software versions and other hardware it is impossible to say it will work on this tv or that tv. Many TV browsers cannot handle modern websites, the BSN website being built for the future is using the latest tech. Some TV browsers may work, in which case happy days, but if not casting or connecting from a laptop or phone is the best way, until the new apps arrive hopefully very soon. On some other devices clearing your memory cache can help too, as basically they’re running out of memory. The stream itself on Monday broadcasted out fine so far as I know though.

Ben Barker posted on Facebook yesterday evening that he still hasn’t heard from Rob Godfrey and if he doesn’t hear back in the next few days he will be whistleblowing and lifting the lid on other issues. - Yesterday

Clearly haven't planned the fixtures very well, which is ridiculous when you realise how few matches they race these days.
-
Dan Gilkes is having a ride at Leicester in the next couple of days to see how progress is going with his knee injury and whether it’s strong enough to return to racing
-
What fixture is on May 6th as it says Oxford vs Poole but Poole are at home to Redcar?

Got to send them a message and they will get back to you, one said from £5 a day, lump sum injury payments available -
Don’t think many UK tracks will suit Mario just now.Though if you saw him in Heat 1 at Berwick you thought he was going to have a decent night,but was terrible the rest of the meeting.5pt av will be difficult to achieve unless he really gets the hang of Ashfield.IMO
-
You’ll find suitable replacements for Leon. No Mario for both meetings will be a bonus on Showings so far.

Several insurance firms popping up on my Facebook feed advertising cover for motorbikes all sports covered even mountain biking -
Yes. His record at NSS is not as bad as some think. Has just collected two more engines I think so we'll see what pans out but I don't agree that he'd ever go into a meeting with a defeatest attitude. Had to smile at his April Fool joke though about the weight of riders😁 I agree wIth others that away from home he should be riding at No.2.

A random thought given it seems Beau Bailey is going to skip the UK in the short term I wonder if Poole might make a move for Brady Langdon next year if he's willing to come to the UK. The US talent pool has been near bare for to many years sadly but this lad looks like he might have the making of something good he's raced against Will Cairns a few times stateside also so there's a possible in there. He looks a talent but risks would be guess he would have to come in on a 4 point average and long way from home at 16 all be it Middlo and co would probably provide the best support team any youngster could hope for coming to UK for the first time.

Thanks

It’s on Berwick Website that Morris is guesting for Leon.
