If ( a very big if) Glasgow "moved up", their nearest rivals would be Belle Vue. Whether it would be in their financial interest to do so is very doubtful. The Facenna's are very good business men and if it was a case of just chucking money away they would probably make the move, but, as it stands, I'm guessing that the CL is the place to be.

Just waiting for the news that Team Manager Cami Brown has signed a new 10 year contract after winning the League title.

That's because the fans are the "least important thing" in speedway.

I could be wrong, but I doubt Stewart will drop to an NDL standard team. It might be slightly below current CL standard and slightly above the current NDL standard mind (that's only a guess too).

TBH Simon has had one, if not his best season ever, which is great to see. He's "stuck at it" when others might have been tempted to "chuck it in".

Yeah, great idea. De-value the sport even further and short change the fans even more.

Didn't realise Robert was riding.....

If it's a reserve he can take all four R/R rides, just three of them would be a reserve switch, rather than R/R, he would then only have three of his four programmed rides.

They could have said he'd "aggravated the injury".

A frustrated ride is one, whether programmed or not, including nomination as a TS, RR and IRR, which results in a disqualification for a starting offence, or for any reason, is unable to take part in a re-run and is replaced by another rider. Speedway Control Bureau Regulations 123 If no replacement is made it is a compulsory ride and counts towards the minimum 3 ride rule. If a replacement is made it will not count towards the minimum 3 ride rule.

I was going off the official Green Sheet Averages.

Lewi Kerr has an 8.60 average for Oxford and is 2nd in their averages, ahead of Scott Nicholls. I reckon that makes him a Championship heat leader.

Only if they can afford them.

Here's an idea. Stick to the thread (Redcar vs Glasgow, in case you've forgotten) and GROW UP some of you.

Sat 7 October:

I think the ultimate downfall for Redcar this season is the fact they have very little "home advantage".

See here: Page 6 second quote down

Nope. His Farewell meeting has to take place before or after a certain date (can't remember what the dates are) early season or late season. Lets not forget this is the FIFTH attempt to run the meeting.

I thought Poland has first call on Sunday's, especially when this is a re-arranged fixture? (From what others have been saying re: the Charles Wright situation the other week).

Do Redcar have a choice?

Does it not happen in cricket?

Because they extended the League deadline, there are less dates to run the play-offs, especially with six teams in them and FOUR of them running on a Friday. Spot on. Too many blank weeks and then the usual end of season clamber to get the fixtures in. I think next season should be better organised fixture wise, with 14 or so teams in one league (not sure how many will drop to NDL and how many will run in the whatever it's called "one league"). ________________00000000000_____________ Six teams in the play-offs, especially with a nine-team league, is IMO, ludicrous. Top Four - Semi Final and Final - would have been quite sufficient, but they are going after the £££, without putting any real thought into it (as usual).

OK, he wouldn't have been injured (but could quite easily have riding for Redcar) but, he wouldn't have been able to ride anyway because he would have been banned worldwide for 28 days.

I am sure @crescent girl or @NeilWatson can confirm (or otherwise!!) !!

He was in the original declared 1-7 at the start of the season and, as far as I understand it, can come back in when fit (i.e tonight).
