1970's or 2020's?

No fixed gate positions in the 70s either and the top boys often pulled rank to get the best ones further cementing their dominance -
Tigers vs Aces 25/05/2026 19:30 PL R1

Average of rising star not included in team building limit so would be allowed to replace him in a full redeclaration but ineligible to guest Home team riders (1-5) can have a guest with a 5% higher average even though they would be ineligible to replace in a redclatation Gotta love speedway rules!! -

Emil no longer has a valid work visa so even if he was willing to come over he couldnt I suppose if they really wanted him and started the process straight away that there is chance the admin could be complete in time for the play offs -

Too close to call 4 points either way - likely to depend on who gets the rub of the green at a vital time -

Interesting adjustment in the averages to take effect from May 11th Scott's converted Championship average used for team building - 5.25 - reverts to a Premiershio rolling average and will be 6.43 -

When promotion is worth around £150 million I think you can understand the celebration! It does highlight the stark reality of Speedways finances when the flipside is that it could mean a reduction in the crowd at Foxhall that is the difference between a break even season and a large loss The usual 1500 would traditionally be raised to 5000 on a good weather bank holiday If that is down to 3000 then the 2000 difference costs the Witches in the region of £40k Peanuts in relation to the football club - a weeks wages for just one player but vital to the Speedway club! -
