I would guess that was by choice

Where has anyone said that Barry Ayres or any other ex Belle Vue speedway rider has to pay to get in? The previous promotion at Belle Vue refused PC’s 100+ list of people he demanded had permanent passes. Instead, they said that any former BV rider just needed to call in advance and they’d be admitted free of charge. I gather the same invitation is extended by the current promotion. Part of the reason for this is that stadium entry is tightly monitored by Manchester City Council under the (dreaded) health and safety rules, so no one gets into the stands without having a ticket, even one issued free of charge.

Who is 30p Lee?

For someone 16-19 it’s 12 days

Are they the same owners? I thought Oxford was owned by a greyhound man and Berwick by the Courtney brothers?

John Campbell was the fixture compiler for many years if not decades, maybe still is. Teams have an input from day one and then a draft is circulated for consideration. Poole/Plymouth are suffering the same fate as Edinburgh/Glasgow have done over the years except the latter used to be worse with the Spring Trophy and the Scottish Cup (neither of which seem to be raced for these days). But, just imagine what it would have been like with two home and away. (Unless Poole and Plymouth meet in the play offs of course!)

I think all of that says more about you than me. Time to move on….

I accept my arithmetic was wrong - I thought the score was 39-51. Don’t know why!!

Fair enough. I’m sure Edinburgh tried to get him to change his mind.

If ever there was a chance of beating Poole, this has to be the meeting for Plymouth. Steve Worrall, by his own admission has become Mr Second Place, Richard Lawson doesn’t seem to be 100% fit and Roynon seems to have lost his early season sparkle. But I’m usually wrong!

Don’t know how you work that out. What I said was factual. He scored 14 and 13 from his first two home NDL meetings and 4 last night. Do you think maybe his heart wasn’t in it? 11 from Kyle last night would probably have won the meeting for Edinburgh. IMO

Bad timing by Edinburgh - last night’s score was Kyle’s revenge.

Wasn’t he also Ben’s landlord?

Would Pickering fit when he recovers? Maybe that’s the plan. Or else Pickering gets his place back and Klindt goes to Peterborough? I have no idea if the averages would fit

I’ll leave others to form their opinion on that form of response.

Now that makes sense. Thanks for clearing it up

I’d be surprised if Garritty was out yet. He was arrested in April 2020 sentenced to 7 and a half years in October 2020. Assuming he was remanded in custody in the April and his sentence is deemed to start from arrest rather than conviction, the best he can hope for is a release after serving half his sentence, so that would be 3 years and 9 months which would take us to January next year. In view of his crimes, I would hope that his licence has been permanently revoked

Could you give me details of the charity, please? I checked the Charities’ Commission website but there doesn’t seem to be one under that name.

Close!

Steve Johnson had DILLIGAF in gothic letters on his backside. It looked like a sponsor’s logo. I think Tai Woffinden has also used it. Fans of Western Australian comedian Kevin “Bloody” Wilson (not suitable for children) will understand….

Updates site say it was Connor not Nathan that had 11 + 3???

I’m glad someone picked it up!

Would Poole want to take on a weakened team, especially one without box office Basso? Or has the win at all costs mentality spread from father to son?

Thank you. At 5.7, so quickly, he certainly hit the ground running. Huge potential but will 2023 be his last year in UK?

The assessed average was a red herring though as he’d just failed to get an official average. Does anyone know what was his true, not official, average at the beginning of 2022?
