eric i 619 Posted May 30, 2023 Wow what a signing, it somehow seems wrong the undefeated world champion comes in on an 8.00 average. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Of course his average would have to fit then etc. Loop holes & interpretation! Now where was that solicitors number? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
AlexBrady 94 Posted May 30, 2023 Good Afternoon All, Great to see such a positive reaction to Artem and also to Kye. I do check the forums occasionally and I thought I'd just send a message today to say thank you for the support and we hope to see as many of you as possible on Thursday and beyond - Your support keeps this club alive and I/We are thankful for every single one of you.

Hope KL fans respond with huge numbers getting down to the stadium. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I presume it was processing the visa application paperwork. He has done similar for several riders in the past and presumably knows the system/procedure. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikebv 10,286 Posted May 30, 2023 (edited) Great news for the sport... The lineal World Champ... Five tracks have GP level riders now so should mean decent crowds when they visit, and hopefully, decent hone crowds too, to help justify the outlay.. The Ipswich/KL matches in particular should be brilliant to watch and generate fantastic crowds.. Let's just hope they dont get arranged for a Thursday that Poland take up their option on, meaning any of the 3 are missing... Me and my lad will definitely go to the NSS to watch him, so that is around fifty quid they wouldnt have got normally, and I am sure plenty more will go that night specifically too.. Well Done KL... All we need know is Peterborough to sign Bartek, Magic, or Woffy... Edited May 30, 2023 by mikebv 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sir Sidney 292 Posted May 30, 2023 7 hours ago, szkocjasid said: Whatever the rule is I'd like to think they'd show some common sense (unlikely in Speedway I know) Pickering has clearly been dropped because he is injured, not some clever ploy to navigate the averages, so there'd be no reason not to allow him back in. The alternative being dropping Jorgensen or Klindt now & using guests for another month till Pickering is fit - who wants that? Even if the rule says you can't re-sign a dropped rider, it probably says subject to management committee approval etc so hopefully would be allowed? From the 2023 Regulations 010.3 TEAM DECLARATIONS Teams must be declared prior to the start of the season to the BSP Ltd office, to confirm it complies with the current regulations. Where the declaration or re-declaration complies with the current regulations it will be approved and confirmed in writing to the relevant Promotion. Should the declaration or re-declaration NOT comply with the regulations the reasons for rejection will be explained, in writing, to the relevant Promotion. Any appeal against the decision of the BSP Ltd office should be made to the SCB Co-Ordinator as per Chapter 19 of the Speedway Regulations Changes must be made at least 3 days before the start time of the meeting at which it is intended to be used. In any declaration where 2 or more riders hold an identical MA (cannot be determined by a 3rd or more decimal point) then the re-declaration must nominate the hierarchical order. Where riders have a previous MA, then the higher placed rider from the previous issue shall retain the higher position. In the Premiership and Championship Leagues a rider taken out of a team through injury cannot be re-declared in that team, within 28 days. 010.3.1 Cut Off Date No team changes will be allowed after 28th August with the effective date being 31st August. Except riders returning to the team after injury who can only replace their original replacement. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
