    NEW LOOK FOR STAR

    HAVE stated before that over 95 per cent of mags arrive on a Thursday or Friday so not so sure your argument about shrink wrapped mags stands up on a national basis.

    MORE POLISH LEAGUE INTERFERENCE

    IT is no secret that as part of their bid to the FIM for the commercial rights of the World Championship and other events Discovery proposed to take the SGP to many new countries but that could turn out to be a fool's errand. Speedway is a hard sell to the uninitiated and especially to countries where there are no 'home' riders available. Cannot see central contracts working either.

    Royal Mail has acknowledged delays to its deliveries amid "exceptionally high volumes" of post and anti-Covid measures. Despite "exhaustive planning", customers may be experiencing "slightly longer delivery timescales." It came as people complained of late or missed deliveries... tell us about it!

    THANKS ... we did look at a similar system but the figures didn't work for us.

    2021 GP Series Dates

    IT made perfect sense to postpone the Warsaw event to later in the year when, hopefully, there is more chance that the Covid pandemic will have abated somewhat. But bear in mind that the 2019 Warsaw event was a sell-out so as soon as it is possible those who wish to secure tickets should do so.

    BEING pedantic again, and as previously mentioned, it is Royal Mail ... the Post Office is a separate entity.

    GOOD news... hope it was worth the wait

    Email ssdigital@pinegen.co.uk and we will send a link to this week's mag. As much as we are frustrated by late postal deliveries, the problems lay with local sorting offices. Over 95 per cent of subs are delivered by Friday although, of course, having paid a first class fee we would expect Thursday.

    NO, personal choice. Sign or don't sign. Many people in a wide variety of employment sign excursive contracts...

    MORE POLISH LEAGUE INTERFERENCE

    NO but a Polish club can include certain terms in a contract and then it is up to the rider to sign it or not.
  21. ARSENAL'S Emirates is very impressive. Hopefully will get to Tottenham's new home next year.
  22. WE actually agree on something. Used to attend most soccer matches at Wembley (internationals, etc) in World Soccer days and it was a dump. But it did have an aura. The two dressing rooms had huge baths rather than showers... more like a swimming pool. Practice for speedway World Finals were always held on a Thursday. Media were allowed in and we used to stage a mock soccer game for a few minutes to say "we played at Wembley." Actually did the same at Ullevi in Gothenburg one year. Happy days ...

    SPEEDWAY is normally used to describe a motor racing circuit

    PROBABLY because the FIM is the international governing body for all forms of motorcycle racing

    Armando Castagna article in SS.

    THERE have been times when the BSPA thought of breaking away from the FIM or, at the very least, been the body affiliated to the FIM rather than the ACU. But the FIM would never accept that.
