No as per my edit which I hadnt finished before AOs reply

I agree AO Would only work if they all did it - a few on their own would simply be frozen out

I believe it was previously possible but the loophole closed when it was seen that it would be very advantageous to riders and effectively end the 'asset' system which underpins the promoters position Edit An perfect up to date example is Drew Kemp. I understand he ideally only wanted to sign a 3 month contract to ride for Ipswich at the end of 2018 but it was ruled he had to sign his registration over to a club or not be alliwed to ride

I would quedtion that as my understanding is that a rider cannot hold their own registration and that it must be in the control of a registered promoter

Still to be clarified but would seem illogical if it didnt apply to Scott but did to Schlein for example (who may qualify under the criteria in the agm statement) Scott had a short time in the 2nd tier at the start but never in the 3rd

Which is fine when that spending goes to the speedway club (and a sensible plan where it is the case) Unfortunately it is a small minority of clubs that could attempt that strategy

Just caught the last couple of minutes during the mid session break of the snooker where players were asked what they wanted to change and Barry Hearn responded Hearn was very candid and his final answer....(paraphrased) "Snooker was in the doldrums until I took it on and why - the players had control. It isnt that way now because they dont control it now" Anyone see any parralells?

Again then earnings meaning what - turnover or profit?

So it will come down to which leagues are included that mean a higher starting assessment

It would seem rather harsh for just 1 meeting. Didnt realise it was just 1 rather than a run of meetings

2 Aussies? Isnt there 3....

Would that Lidsey and whether his Polish experience last year means he is higher than a 'newbie' 4?

Are you saying earnings as in turnover rather than profit?

That has been the reg in force but until the full 2019 set are released or a statement from a club re signing a rider in that position we wont know for sure if it remains in place

Not overrated but has under achieved When he is working with others and challenged he gets whats needed done and it pays off. When left to his own devices he can let things slip and it shows He was poorly prepared coming into 2018 and it took most of the season to recover his condition Im reliably informed he has kept up the training this closed season and appears to be finally realising he needs to take more responsibility I hope he does whether as a Witch or not as it would be sad to see his undoubted talent not fulfilled

Rory back at Lynn would be a real shock though

Chin up J - it can only get better from here! (I think/hope)

Thats 4 more than everyone has been thinking are signed Rory was always an outside chance given the Wolves connection and the Glasgow call off incident

I expect he could be persuaded by the refurbished heating in the changing rooms

Lets see how each 1-7 ends up

On plan C already.....

Whatever Buster wants

So much for reducing doubling up...... And so much for having to have an established average to be able to do so....

Kasper Andersen has been named by a few as a preferred option He didnt actually achieve a real average in either league in 2018 so will still be assessed and therefore not able to double up/down Already named by Sheffield
