  1. Lewis Kerr was giving a kitted out race van to use from a sponsor for the season kitted out with bed sink and cooking facilities sometimes that's a deal breaker
  2. On the Leicester video just put up with the interview from team manager stewart Dickson they are hoping to run a NL team and mentioned the Thompson twins would be riding for them but will be confirmed soon
  3. Got to love some of the Rumours, various sources ,heard from a reliable source my mate says, people in the know, even I can show you there wage slips lol what a load of bullsh1t unless a rider comes on here and tells you what they earn which I can’t see people should state facts not fairy tales not hear say it’s went from £100 to £200 a point to £1000 a meeting to £1200 now £2000 a meeting to the whole team on a guarantee lol lol by the time the season starts they will be all millionaire with secret offshore bank accounts and pretty sure if it was that pay scale every single rider would be queuing outside Allied head quarters the day after the season finishes begging for a team spot for the following year and before they agree to ride for any other team but not happened yet
  4. That’s defo chinese whispers No where near they figurers
  5. Your source has been listening to chinese whispers
  6. They will have a team that will be very hard to beat at home ,Arlington is a very hard track to get around and the home team will have plenty practice there and I think if their reserves are Brennan and woods they will get a barrow load of points even against heat leaders
  7. Think Maybe worky got a wee under the table deal done with him a while back ;-)’-)
  8. Love how all these post saying they know how much Glasgow pay there riders and what deals they are getting and riders getting silly wages double of what everybody else is paying (bullsh1t) more like chinese whispers starts off at £50/£70 a point and by the time it gets on here it’s trebled and don’t forget their mega signing on fees lol guess they also know how much sponsors give them towards the riders wages
  9. THJ. As you said if this is your first year then your still wet behind your ears and you better get used to it riders also approach clubs as well even before the end of the season looking for a spot for the following year this is speedway no one goes by the book every club for themselves ,most promotors have every riders number in there phone and it’s easier to call them We never heard the promotors at Sheffield moan much last year when there agreed number 1 rider went somewhere else and that was not long before the season started
  10. Promotors Can always say no to any rider if it’s outwith their budget I know Glasgow knocked back a rider because of his demands and by the sound of it Somerset knocked back Charles Wright because they would not go over their budget and with the low team ave this year some decent riders might miss out with their demands so there will always be another rider that will take the deal
  11. The thing you can buy the best riders on the league but it does not guarantee you anything who said worky would win 3 trophy’s with the team they had a good solid team from 1-7 with riders that will put something on there average will always win
  12. So if you were offered more money and paid on time to move to a different company you would say no thanks happy with What I have
  13. Surely the owner of the rider is the bspa so you contact them first or if you contact rider because no club owns him they would tell you to contact bspa before any deal can be done the riders are only being loaned to the club for a season unless they gave a contract that’s for more than one season pretty sure every promoter in the league will approach the rider before the club just to see if he would like to come common sense really
  14. So basically if the rider has signed on the dotted line for you you have him if not and you want him back but he wants to go somewhere else for a better deal he tells the bspa he wants to go to wherever and goes the riders does what he wants nothing new there move on
  15. from what I was told he is owned by the bspa and will go where he wants
  16. Pretty sure most teams will be top heavy this year With 2-3 pointers at reserve in most team and the team with the best reserves will be up at the top end when the play off come only problem with that is if the reserves get injured they will not be many good enough to cover injuries
  17. Leon will be at Berwick for sure he does not chase the money as he has knocked back a good few clubs from what I was told it’s who he rides with is more important to him than the money good lad
  18. Maybe Less 2.5% for brits coming that came through the NL league
  19. Quote from Scott’s FB page There has never been a more important time to show your support for Berwick Speedway. Jamie Courtney will be sailing the ship in 2019 and I can’t emphasise enough how crucial it is for everyone to shoot for the same goal and help make this viable. I’ve done my stint front of house but if I could ask for one last thing it’s to show your unconditional support for your club.
  20. Sounds like Scott’s stepping down with Jamie taking control
