The Eurosport guy (Andy Vane?) was also very proficient - a Speedway novice but it didnt show! -
British GP 2013

Semis and the final could well be a bit of a lottery the way the track is deteriorating. -
Part of the problem for us armchair team managers s that we dont have the true averages of those available to hand. All those mentioned that rode last year will now have a different average to that at the end of last year despite not riding due to the number of meeting included in the calculation being reduced. Six meetings have fallen off the sample six which could make for a significant swing - up or down.

What was that bit in Phil Risings post re hoping it isnt the unlucky 13th staging!! Fingers toes and everything else crossed that they can get it right in the night. -
I take it that means Somerset have meetings those nights and hence your question about priority earlier in the thread. Just to worry you then I believe Tungate had to switch to ride for Poole tonight as he is racing on an ACU licence rather than a MA one otherwise he would have had to ride in the Test match. 3 guests and r/r for Somerset then??

Whilst I tend to agree with your outlook as what seems to be common sense if rule 2 does take precedence over rule 1 then surely Newcastle wouldve been granted a facilty. As it wasnt granted then surely that means rule 1 has precedence over rule 2. So it seems the hardline approach would be to enforce the rule and make Ludvig stand down from 1 team whilst the practical common sense approach has actually been taken. Of course the result is that any such similar situation or variation of and any hardline interetation of the rule is impossible. Eg Adam Ellis at Lakeside where he technically doesnt qualify due to not having a 2012 average. Of course the common sense solution is still to let him double up anyway. If that doesnt happen then further questions arise.

Doesnt that Twitter comment re not paying the fine and that Sweden takes priority for him mean that Ludvig is confirming he is not prepared to make Britain his absolute priority as the rule requires? Would surely have been wiser to have said he was frustrated he couldnt ride as he wouldve been banned by SVEMO that he understands and accepts the fine and hopes he is not put in such an impossible position in the future.

Never in doubt that the Witches would win comfortably but even given that the Devils were very disappointing. Great pass from Cook on Wells. Rohan and Morten pretty much untroubled and Cam will be disappointed to miss out on a full house. You wait for so long fir a Witches rider to score a max ( I cant remember the last one) and then 3 in 1 night!
