I have a feeling that Ashton may sign for a Premiership club as an asset then be loaned to a CL team for the rest of the season in a similar way that James Pearson is a Belle Vue asset. There was a lot of talk back in July that Ashton was Birmingham bound this year however after some recent performances the last I heard it was turning into a bit of bidding war on who was prepared to offer the best deal. At the start of the season money was not the main objective for him and his family it was what could help further his career more long term hence joining Leicester with free practice when you want and a winning team so pressure is off to develop at own pace . For 2024 I have heard he is going to Wrocław for U24 and possibly 1st Team so Championship may be more limited if not available Tues,Fri and Sun plus Wednesday if he returns to Slangerup in Denmark Edited August 13, 2023 by flagrag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
therefused 819 Posted August 13, 2023 He will be at Glasgow if rumours are to be believed. He’s based in Norfolk isn’t he? Missed opportunity for Lynn if they don’t sign him as an asset and loan him out 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The rider will dictate where he will be riding. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noelinho 922 Posted August 13, 2023 The idea of riders being club assets when they ride for multiple clubs and are ostensibly self-employed, is quite possibly the weirdest of speedway concepts. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mikebaker 199 Posted August 13, 2023 Jordan Jenkins became a Redcar asset last season. Where is he in 2023. Oxford. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,780 Posted August 13, 2023 The asset thing is a load of cobblers. Teams getting transfer ans loan fees shouldn't happen. As for Boughen, you can't blame him for steering clear of Lynn, the club is a dog's breakfast. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure it would be easier for British youngsters to get team places if the asset system wasn't used, or used like in Poland / football. There would be a lot less of clubs flying in Aussies to gain an asset, when they could save air fares by using Brits, with no loan fees to worry about. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whether they are willing to is a different matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
