Don’t think Beau Bailey will ever ride in the UK.

Has Slater Lightcap got an official average as he’s only rode 3 home and 2 away league matches? Or is he still on a 4.00 assessed average?

I'll say a few things just to make my position crystal clear..... 1. I'm not a Poole fan. I've been a Bees fan for a lot of years and our conflicts have been "intense" to say the least. And don't get me onto Poole's track preparation. Its a joke. 2. I watched both legs of the final, supporting Scunthorpe, although they mean very little to me apart from their speedway abilities. 3. I was excited to see the second leg go to a Super Heat. I was particularly impressed by Josh Pickering's understanding of what it takes to win a race where coming first doesn't necessarily win you anything. 4. I saw Zach Cook take a "very tight line" when Josh Pickering let him take over the lead. Did he put both wheels where they shouldn't have been? The evidence (so far) is inconclusive. Yes, that's right, False dawn agrees with the referee and the speedway supporting population of Poole. 5. The SCB clearly said that Zach breached the rules. My conclusion. The SCB ruled on something they didn't need to. They knew before their investigation that the result could not be changed so why do anything? And worse still, why muddy the waters by saying they are 100% certain the rules were breached. And worse still than that, why say the rules were breached without saying how they reached that decision. What evidence do they have that we haven't seen? So, despite my history with Poole, my argument is not with Zach Cook, the club or anyone associated with them. The SCB have many questions to answer and their response to the controversy is silence.  I am, first and foremost, a speedway fan. I deserve my sport to be managed better. 

I don't disagree with the 'little change' stance. As for the fixture planning let's not forget that every 2 years there are major international football tournament dates to avoid  as many sports fans like to follow many sports. Having said that, the majority of regular Championship fixtures were completed by mid Sept. 2027 should be better, weather permitting.......

I wonder if mikkel michelsen could be tempted over? Rumour was Louis got very close to a deal with him as an injury replacement for Doyle

Riders don't come to Poole for the track though, they come for the trophies! 😁🤷‍♀️ Tate also rumoured for Edinburgh, that is why i said Scotland😉 Though tbf he rumoured everywhere apart from Worky!  Everyone thought Masters was too. So maybe no one is Poole bound til they have signed. Better way to look at it.
