  1. No fixed gate positions in the 70s either and the top boys often pulled rank to get the best ones further cementing their dominance
  2. 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!!
  3. 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
  4. Pollestad was under consideration in the original plans prior to the sale I believe
  5. Sadly another example tonight with Bewley Fingers crossed for Dan
  6. Couldn't have that at Kings Lynn If its Sonny its a compulsory 20 minute break and Buster does 30 laps on his tractor
  7. BREAKING NEWS Kings Lynn hospital bed shortage today following unprecedented influx of severe sunburn sufferers
  8. Not the subject most will be expecting
  9. Damned if you do damned if you don't No point getting too worked up about it really As an aside how was Lambert lined up ti guest when he isn't named in a 1-7 in either league?
  10. This will end up a full thread that won't stop
  11. Too close to call 4 points either way - likely to depend on who gets the rub of the green at a vital time
  12. 2 weeks I think It eas said he would miss 3 meetings - so just the next 1 and then he should be back
  13. Lidsey looks like he ihas the objective of a 2027 return to Belle Vue on a sub 6 average.....
  14. Most won't have seen it as they weren't there and Sheffield are so tinpot they don't offer a stream
  15. The Holders whinging - I can't believe that for a second Never before have I known a more chilled pair that simply smile and get on with it than them You must be mistaken
  16. 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
  17. Thursday May 7th - everyone's chance to make the change.....
  18. Didn't you go to see the Witches at the Cornhill? If it was big enough to warrant a full parade Speedway would've got one as well....
  19. 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!
  20. It can only be that as he is not in a Premiership 1-7 that the converted Championship figure is used
  21. The official cop out for that one was the regulations being 'interpreted' as a rider that has never achieved an official match average as opposed to being assessed Lambert had of course achieved a match average prior to that time and although officially (re)assessed at the time of the booking this was conveniently 'clarified' to allow his inclusion
