GAH 409 Posted July 19, 2020 10 hours ago, Bagpuss said: Trouble is that’s probably his season over, any further opportunities with Wroclaw have evaporated and even the chance to impress in practice has gone. No U21 events either in what is his last season at that level. You’d like to think that he’ll have learned to be more professional next time. think again !! only out for 4 weeks there is the world under 21 in october also the world under 21 team championship in september !! also the re-scheduled SON 24/25th oct at NSS of which bewley will be the under 21 reserve for team GB woffinden/lambert being the other 2 !! so it certainly isn't season over for him !!

Particularly in the UK. Can't really expect him not to partake in other hobbies. I would dispute that remark , Speedway in Poland is not semi professional If you are good enough to get to the top.!

mikebv 10,285 Posted July 22, 2020 I think the Aces should keep the same seven next year.. None of them have increased their averages, but then again, none decreased them either.. Overall then, for me, it was a fair effort... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Dale Allitt seemed to suggest that has been put forward.So hopefully all teams will do it.King's Lynn certainly want to keep the same 7,and wasn't it Sheffield or maybe Ipswich that said the same.

I suppose it will depend on how many want to ride.. If some get 'decent' jobs then maybe they would be reluctant to be paying out tens of thousands going forward should this thing not go away, and have far more job security.. As basically they are at the whim of a Govt edict which could come at any time. Team building also must be impacted by flights being subject to getting pulled at any moment. eg. Would riders accept being stranded 1000's of miles away from home without any chance to earn money? Lots of questions need to be asked, and answered, going forward.
