I think you have misunderstood this statement. I believe it means no return to ride at Belle Vue this season.

The play-offs have been put back by one week in order to catch up on outstanding fixtures which should allow Wolves to visit on 7th September. However, Jack will probably be back by thern.

...and where's Boris now?

Yes, I watched the last SGP as a delayed start on the Discovery+ app.

I don't see a great deal of difference here than Jonny Bairstow carrying off a 'just stop oil' protester from the pitch at Lords a few weeks ago.

There is a discrepancy between both Clubs' previews published on Sunday. The Stars made this statementThe Stars also have Chris Harris on standby to guest at No.1 should he be required to replace Artem Laguta, following his ankle injury last week. then Wolves included this in their preview With a doubt over the fitness of 2021 World Campion Artem Laguta, King's Lynn have named Chris Harris as a guest at No.1 Therefore it is perfectly possible for Wolves to have produced amended programmes as early as Monday morning.

Hume isn't exactly 4.00. He will have an average whereby the third decimal point used either, rounds it up or down to 4.00. Rew's average is lower than 4.00 now but, any rider who starts the season on an assessed average, is not allowed to drop below 4.00.

Erik scored 12+1 from 5 rides for Redcar this evening whilst Danny dropped just one point. Not the strongest opponents though, Berwick.

Not as good as Connor Bailey who scored 10+1 including 2 race wins, 1 paid win, on the rising stars list and available.

Okay. Thanks.

The Krosno v Gorzow meeting yesterday and abandoned after nine heats, does that constitute a result or will it have to be re-staged?

Streamed via BSN. Wolves have booked Scott Nicholls once again whilst Nick Morris rides for Sheffield in place of Jack Holder. Details: http://www.wolverhampton-speedway.com/news.php?extend.3678

So many gusts? Plenty of gusts of wind from you OB as usual! lol.

Following today's postponement this becomes the first leg. Erik Riss may be back for the Witches whilst the Panthers will need a guest @1 or RR. Only Belle Vue not riding so they might call upon Brady Kurtz.

In this instance Poland probably do have priority and this is why. Lublin v Krosno (Jack's club) was scheduled originally for 21st April but postponed and re-set for tonight. However, at that time Wolves were to be hosting round 1 of the Pairs so, had this gone again ahead, we would have retained priority. But as Wolves v Sheffield is a fixture change arranged after the Polish match had been re-scheduled, they get first call on his services.

Yes, but only if the opposing team is in agreement I would imagine.

I wonder how long Ipswich will be permitted to run RR for Riss as he must have been out for 28 days + by now. I am comparing this to the situation Wolves are in now having to use the guest facility only for Becker up to 75% of his CMA.

Yes. 010.4 TEAM NOTIFICATIONS Home teams must notify their opponents of the team line-up at least 5 days before the meeting to which the away team must respond within 24 hours with their team line-up. Notifications must be in writing, include MA’s and where applicable, the reason for facilities being used. At least 3 days before the meeting, the home promotion must log the team line-ups, including NJL and MSDL teams, at the nominated SCB website. The information must include each riders MA, details of any rider in a team’s current declaration who will be missing, the full reason for absence and the facility being used along with the name and MA of any guest rider. Further necessary changes must be notified, with reasons given, to the nominated SCB website, opponents, BSP LTD office and Referee as soon as they are known

I don't know what the ruling is. Vatcher appears to have introduced one which doesn't appear to be in the 2023 SCB regs. Perhaps he, and others in the BSPL, were miffed by the fact Wolves included Scott as a temporary replacement for Luke then went back to their original declaration after Nicholls was injured in Poland just before Wolves' home fixture v Belle Vue on10th April.

Jason set for his third full house in a row, Sweden yesterday, Poole today, both 15 point maximums.

This Saturday, 13th May, sees the 'Celebrating Hackney Speedway' event. Details here: https://www.pwpark.com/events/celebrating-hackney-speedway/ https://www.facebook.com/groups/1981040038888988/permalink/3661160094210299/

I am wondering what happens next. The BSPL ruling implies that Becker is no longer a Wolves rider but, as a concession, they have allowed them a guest facility at 75% of his CMA. Therefore, when he recovers from injury and ready to ride, Wolves will have to re-declare and sign him as a new rider. He retains his original average so, if he cannot be fitted in with the points limit, they will have to make further team changes in order that he may be accommodated.

The PZM don't have priority. You are referring to the Lublin v Krosno fixture arranged for the 15th May and affecting Doyle and Holder. In theory we would have priority regarding their appearances in the Pairs. In reality, Both Ipswich and Sheffield might have compromised allowing them both to appear in the Polish match and nominating other riders to go to Wolves. However, now that the fixture has changed I would imagine Poland have priority over Jack Holder's services leaving Sheffield needing a guest or RR.

Max Fricke rides as a guest for the Panthers whilst the Witches continue using RR for Erik Riss. Full preview:https://ipswichwitches.co/raceday-preview-peterborough-knockout-cup-semi-final-first-leg-a/ This fixture is due to be shown by BSN but the weather forecast for tomorrow is so poor I think this is unlikely to go ahead.
