I think Simon Stead may not be riding. I'd read that Nermark was replacing him though some said last night that Wright is

We've both voted.

I've been wondering myself how he is. Early last season it was said that he hoped to be back riding this season but haven't heard anything since. Hope he does make a good recovery, he'd been unlucky with injuries before that crash too.

Promoters come from all walks of life, eg ex riders and aren't experts in legal matters, I'm sure the BSPA could afford to use an immigration specialists skills for a couple of months or so to make sure everything was in order or to advise whether a visa was likely or not. Disappointing for riders and fans too when when they're turned down at this late stage.

Don't think they can use R/R as Kozza won't have actually rode for them.

I'm sure that Mason Campton moving from Glasgow to Workington was part of the the problem he had last year. I think the BSPa should have an expert to deal with all the applications instead of clubs having to do it themselves, Kozza's good to watch, shame he's not going to be here.

Would have liked Tero to have got a team place but doubtful now.

Good, cheers.

You know what they say about sarcasm I presume. If not, lowest form of wit. Few weeks to go anyway.

How's the Somerset track in all the floods?

Can only see Joe as being a good appointment, the supporters have got a lift and the young riders will surely respect his advice, it's not as if he hasn't been there and done it himself. If they won't take Joe's advice then they probably wouldn't listen to anybody. Glad Sheffield survived.

Yeh, agree about keeping injury free. The performance of guests too and there's always riders who for whatever reason don't perform as expected once the season starts, thought Vissing for example would have done better for Edinburgh last year.

Rene Bach named as our captain, good choice.

There's only a reduction after missing one full season if it's due to injury.

According to Mirror Screeny is your new team manager.

Thanks, didn't know that. Berwick look to have a good team. I think he'll do well there.

What happened with Kus in Argentina? Missed that.

There's logic in it being harder to come back after a bad injury so I'd expect to be less if not injured.

I think one full season out gives an 8 percent reduction. I once asked about Kenny Ingalls who hoped to return to speedway next season, you'd think 2 yr would be more. After his accident against Scunthorpe in the 2012 season he must still be not fit enough, haven't heard anything but it was an awful incident.

Speedway Star is £2.90, some say it's expensive. Depends what people want to spend money on but compare it to the price of a pint, I know which lasts longer and I don't mean drinking time.

Aye you were right last year weren't you.

I remember Sedgmen riding well for Birmingham and looking forward to seeing him. He then went Elite with Swindon and that seemed to drain his confidence and I think he's had injuries too. Thought he went up too soon though. Could turn out to be a good signing. Pity Newport aren't still with us, must have been terrible for the fans with them pulling out after the team had been picked.

Ok for me me too, try it from Google

Howarth of course and less travelling for him

Richard Lawson would be great guest for Josh
