If their averages are below 4, they remain on a 4.

He rides for Mildenhall in the NL, who also ride their home meetings on Sundays, so it would depend if he would want to make a permanent step-up to the SGB Championship.

He won heat 2 tonight. Job done.

If he did that he would cop a 28 day ban, therefore effecting him riding in the NL for Belle Vue.

Yes.

Because we can't have a 'facility' for Bukhave.

yes:

No. Has to be NL guest who hasn't got a Championship average.

I thought last night's meeting was one of the best I've seen up at Shielfield for a while. Some great tactical riding, especially when TJ protected Jacob in heat 9. With our home form, it's still all to play for, but, hopefully, we can go 7 or more clear by heat 15. I also thought all riders gave 100%, including Danny, who clearly had engine problems after retiring from heat 2.

Teams: NEWCASTLE: Steve Worrall, Max Clegg, Lasse Bjerre, Matthew Wethers, Thomas Jorgensen, David Wallinger, Danny Phillips.BERWICK: Aaron Summers, Jye Etheridge, Paul Starke, Dany Gappmaier, Nikolaj B Jakobsen, Coty Garcia, Leon Flint. Wallinger for Bukhave, due to Jacob having Danish commitments. Makes t even more interesting.

Tero has been available all season after Workington closed.

Wouldn't disagree with any of that. The only thing I would say though is the NL is now down to just 8 teams, so team spaces are limited. But you still have the likes of (and I'm not picking on these riders particularly!) Rob Ledwith, Paul Bowen and Ben Wilson, although, that said, it isn't as bad as it used to be.

Don't forget, he was originally going to ride for Workington this season.

I looked on the Berwick site, which is kind of why I thought I would ask on here, as I thought someone was bound to know!

The NL has been pretty much the same since it started way back when. You had teams who just wanted to develop riders (mainly due to them having a main team and a second team - like the Diamonds/Gems for example) and you've got those who are stand alone (Mildenhall/Cradley etc) who want(ed) just to win the league. Anyhow - back on subject - any team news regarding Saturday?

I knew Kev was third in the averages from Saturday onwards. More prompted by the confusion of Matty guesting for Pickering! Also thinking exactly what ruffdiamond says above!

Have the rules changed as far as a missing top 5 riders is concerned? I noticed last week, Matty Wethers guested for Edinburgh (in place of Josh Pickering), when no one else was missing. Last year it was R/R for one missing top 5 rider and guest(s) and R/R for more than one missing rider.

Over 100 miles apart.... and he was born in Fredericia on 30 December 1993

Obviously you didn't buy a Raceday Magazine against Leicester !!

Explain?

Jacob Bukhave joins the Diamonds: http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100985

Any foreigner on an assessed average cannot fall below that average.

Think you could be wrong.
