  1. Negative 'fake news' from Mr Webb then.... At least he is consistent
  2. Time will all start at same point when tapes rise Clock will stop when cross the line so will be a significant difference from front to back of bike
  3. Where is the common sense in a pairs/team event being decided by an individual run off?
  4. I would like this to be possible My only doubt is that with the amount of power and tension at full revs no movement must be almost impossible
  5. Agree thats seems the logical position. Need to be identically placed independantly and the riders not allowed to meddle That should cover almost all eventualities
  6. That would be a fundamental change to who wins a race though At the moment its any part of the bike cutting the plane of the finishing line (usually the front wheel) but would now be the transponder
  7. Good point Also what happens when one rider reaches the line on the back wheel with the bars slightly crossed against a rider pointly dead straight The straight wheel could reach the line first but the transponder be behind the rider with the crossed bars.....
  8. Yes because speedway press releases are a known paragon of truth and virtue Lets see how it pans out
  9. The finances I think was an early smokescreen to the discussion that has been found to be a red herring.....
  10. I would expect there will be at least an initial upturn Very few of those that could be tempted back will read the mixed verdicts on here - they will get the mainstream news - and I think the top flight return will be viewed positively A good start at home and some entertaining meetings will be needed to capitalise and maintain that advantage Fingers crossed
  11. The calculation will be taken to further decimal places for team position if required Not sure that the reduction counts for team position anyway but perhaps only for team building
  12. You can still have 7 separate press pieces by having follow up stories about each rider That could help build a team identity and promote a growing sense of club identity
  13. Are the costs really too high for a 2nd tier professional sports team? An attendance of just 750 would see a break even position There are other clubs with higher crowds and we hear few if any clubs are making profits. This must mean those clubs have even higher costs
  14. But leave a cherry too long and it goes mouldy. By the 3rd bite the taste isnt that attractive I can understand every few days over a period of time or even week by week til around Christmas Once a month from November and less than half the team announced by February though doesnt do it for me
  15. Just as well Gospeed didnt need to be asked......
  16. You do have to respect confidences or requests to not disclose though
  17. I hope so Although that was how the regulation was worded last year and yet shield matches were included in the championship figures
