  1. Of course we don't because that's the top level of British speedway! The argument here is that most agree that their should be a limit determining what ability a rider can reach before he is no longer allowed to ride in the NL and therefore progress upwards into the PL and EL. But our current league structure does t aid that natural progression. Some think that Ellis is above that limit, but some don't. Though there's a clear argument for Ellis being the highest achiever in the league and currently at a higher standard than Morris, Clegg et al, when you look at his EL average, a World Cup place and U21 achievements.
  2. £17 for the NL is a lot of money, whether it's 2 meetings or not! I'm sure even Coventry fans won't fancy stopping until gone 11pm or whenever their marathon double header will finish at this time.
  3. Other clubs could really take note from Barry and co on how to promote the sport properly!
  4. It's 2 semi-finals and then a straight 1 race final.
  5. I suppose I may as well gamble so £100 more on Milik and Laguta £50 less.
  6. NKI £10 less Jonsson £10 more I know I missed the original time but this is before the restaging.
  7. What about NL teams who aren't even in the competition??
  8. I've obviously missed this, but when did Ayres crash to break his wrist?
  9. I think Bernie is right. At the AGM they said the deadline is Sun Sept 25th.
  10. Johnson has practiced and is fit now. Not allowed a facility so had to use an unattached 3.00 rider (number 8s are also classed as unattached).
  11. Harris won't get a new average until Sept though and Cottham should be back by then.
  12. Len's running scared and doesn't want the Warriors using Liam Carr for Compton (Cupitt is riding at number 1), but here's the rulebook showing why his argument that there can't be a guest for Compton for longer than 28 days is invalid. '16.5.2 For an absent rider with (a) an assessed MA, or has been approved in a team’s declared line-up at the start of the season, a 28-day Facility may be granted at MC’s discretion. ' '16.5.2.1 In the NL this only applies if he was in that Team’s 1-7 at the close of the previous season.' The Isle of Wight weren't even running 'at the close of the previous season'... So surely the usual facilities rules apply without a time limit restriction.
