King's Lynn v Ippo 17/08/23
Roger Jacobs replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Why should there be any sanctions? It's not their fault they have a number of injuries, and there isn't much choice for guests. -

No - although they have arranged a Wednesday afternoon banger destruction derby, with orders to hit the pit gate as hard as possible. -

Lawson has better record on countback, i.e. 1 win and 3 second places. Head-to-head is only when countback is the same. -

#BusterGate provided both openness and transparency: apparently there was no "openness" for the pit gate, and we could all see through the excuses ... -
What does Tai Woffinden mean?
Roger Jacobs replied to Hamish McRaker's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
That’s an interesting thought, although they would need Holder to return by 31 August. Not sure if Pickering and/or Ellis and/or Kerr would be excited at the prospect of being released … -

As I said earlier: the average is irrelevant, he's replacing Holder. -

Kings Lynn Stars Vs Peterborough Panthers
Roger Jacobs replied to klstarsfan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
No, they've been testing transponders, but not every track has the appropriate equipment - or possibly even the facilities to install it! -
Kings Lynn Stars Vs Peterborough Panthers
Roger Jacobs replied to klstarsfan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I recommend that you try it with a hand-held timer ... the same race several times - you probably won't get it to the same tenth every time. -

Survival of The Premiership?
Roger Jacobs replied to Najjer's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
But it was never to the extent that people remember. ITV was, as pointed out, localised. World of Sport showed highlights of some big meetings. -
Survival of The Premiership?
Roger Jacobs replied to Najjer's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It has never been on terrestrial TV, apart from highlights. People have rose-tinted, and very distant, memories. -
Survival of The Premiership?
Roger Jacobs replied to Najjer's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Way back when Ipswich nearly went to the wall, it was confirmed that John Louis, as promoter, was the only person (other than the riders), who took a wage out of the club. All clubs are totally reliant on volunteers, and most clubs have no tangible assets. There doesn't appear to be viable operating model, and certainly no opportunity for investment. -
Survival of The Premiership?
Roger Jacobs replied to Najjer's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
8 x 6 = 48, which is roughly the total number of different riders currently gracing 16 teams in the Prem & Championship - so your hope of a 4.50 minimum is impossible. Guests? R/R? Squads?
