I've have been advised that the Stars management will allow Poole to turn up race day then add the protest against Robson's inclusion. Interesting

The rules are clear, Matt's making up the reserve rules as we speak

Lets hope as many EL clubs close as possible (Coventry Swindon currently a concern) so that will properly screw up your arrogant mob with no clubs to race

Great signing from the Pirates Looking at their team it looks more like a proper elite league side how it should. Will p!ss the league now barring injuries

Don't have a problem with that as the averages fit. The workings of the reserve rule is a different matter as Poole are using something that isn't in the 2016 regulations

Robson makes them million times stronger around King's Lynn. Poole fans saying otherwise are just trying to justify the blatant rule manipulation yet again

The thing is, the EDR list isn't the 2016 regulations though. The regulations state:- FACILITIES a) Absent Rider (1-3) G or ARR Absent Rider (4 or 5) ARR only c) Absent Riders (both 4 and 5) ARR and G d) Absent #6 (if an EDR) G (EDR* only) e) Absent #6 (if not an EDR) G f) Absent #7 G (EDR* only) g) “No Facility” for Absent 1-5 PL G (PL MA of 6.00 or less)

To right the cheating bar stewards. Here we go!!! http://www.poolepirates.co/news/20160225_newman-out.html

Stars lineup amended on the original post Poole also amended as Newman is ill According to the Poole website they're bring in Stuart Robson. How is that allowed for an EDR???

When posters can't even acknowledge a positive within a subject then their arguments against are null and void. It's purely and simply, bitterness. That becomes quite sad frankly

Anti Tai folk will struggle to suck this one up. Again, delivering on his promise to help British Speedway. Legend

Niels will not see out the Elite League season with the Stars http://www.speedwaygp.com/news/article/4810/nki-to-avoid-british-burnout

They said he was unwell, more like a tactical switch to me

After reading all the other comments this one really surprised me Sounds like it was Woffy's fault too. Sounds like a great meeting to watch and pleasing to end up with a draw for the Stars ✊

Absolutely right but I will share mine anyway regarding the Elite League:- All UK tracks to be reworked, leveled, removed of bumps & ruts with plenty of dirt added Removal of rider assets, contracted stays only Review of the EDR system - No'7 Brit U-21 - No'6 any Brit with less than 5 years EL experience Team building back to 42.50 average A move to 2 race night's a week (Monday & Thursday) Foreign assessed riders 5.50 or above, their averages cannot drop below at any time Referees to have access to video technology Like GP's, ready to race in 2mins with visible stop clock That's just a few

To be fair, if he's not able to do his job to the best of his ability he should be signed off. He's clearly feeling depression and you can see that also by his tweets. He could become a danger to other's with his mind clearly not focused on the job

We all know that but Mr Watson is saying that's not the case. So the question is to him that how Poole got a facility if the UK fixture wasn't organised first. Thing is also, I couldn't see anything that says about which fixtures where organised first. It does say that facilities are available if a rider is missing due to their home federation fixtures. Poland isn't Holder's home

Steady has already stated on the Podcast that he has a full time job now so isn't looking to do EL. Wants to concentrate on Sheffield only

Seen that Josh Bates has now got a 4.00 average. If no team changes are forth coming, could you put Josh in the top 5 then use guests for Woryna at reserve who's also on a 4.00??

Correct on both counts It is unfair, I now feel he was only signed as a safe guard that keeps Huckenbeck as No'8. We have no intention of using Jakobsen clearly. Another rule loophole.

I know it's completely within the rules but Jakobsen was signed as one of our top 5. I just think if teams are running squads they should be made to use them if there's no reason for a missing rider.

2nd - 3rd week of May was mentioned

Correct, it was. I meant the Lindgren guest oops. Still the same, the rules don't allow a guest for Holder with clashing fixtures abroad

I've just spent hour of my life reading the regs and it's clear as mud. Poole shouldn't of had a facility (R/R) for Holder. Something sinks here

Stars look to extend Iversen's stay http://www.edp24.co.uk/sport/king_s_lynn_stars_in_talks_to_extend_stay_of_niels_kristian_iversen_1_4507043?utm_medium=twitter&utm_source=twitterfeed
