If they’re going to make a change it needs to be before 22 June when Castagna’s average plummets officially to 3.82 - and come 01 July he will almost certainly be at reserve, with Rushen currently over 5 …

Monday’s thrashing at Belle Vue will count towards the July Green Sheets. There’s currently only 0.35 between Brennan (7.18), Lawson (7.11), King (6.93), and Musielak (6.83) - so there could be a new #1 from 01 July … although the new averages will also depend upon the oldest rides & points dropped from the rolling averages. At some stage in Tuesday morning we shall find out …

There wasn't much racing to get excited about, but I must say that I thought Fricke's team ride with Jenkins was first class - Fricke filled every gap, while Jenkins rode solidly outside - a real throwback to the days of Olle Nygren and Tiger Louis.

One 11 second clip on YouTube? I think ShanoXtra is a regular contributor. I assumed that the illegal stream they were talking about was someone filming the big screen ...

I was told a few years ago that the advertising in the programme effectively covered the production costs, so the sales were profit.

Absolutely no contact. Few riders negotiated the outside line on either pair of bends with any confidence.

Because they are well under the points limit, it looks like they could replace Batchelor with Zagar, if fit, at least up to 30 June - then new averages would come in to play. Once the Foxes have completed 75% of their league matches, a returning Zagar could only replace Jeppesen.

You do know that an experienced SGP rider from Australia couldn't be used to replace Batchelor ...

Seems like he's been given the thumbs down ...

Where are the Admins?

Handed back by sponsors?! They can't even give them away?

Another very noisy and heavy thunderstorm around 4-5pm for an hour, and then heavy rain for about 10 mins around 6pm. More black clouds over Foxhall at 7:40 - although I’m a couple of miles east and the sun is shining. Ipswich fans will be delighted that it’s off, because they’re desperate for a chance to see the Holder Bros flying on a slick dry Foxhall, instead of their usual pootling around on a damp and grippy field.

No. Never went. In fact I’ve only been to one Individual World Final (Bradford ‘85) - it didn’t appeal to me the same way that team racing did.

You don’t re-run cancelled matches, only postponed matches. * SCB Regs CHAPTER 1 – DEFINITIONS & ABBREVIATIONS

Won one, drew one away. Lost one, drew two at home. 12th out of 15.

Isn't Gavan the town cryer? PS: Ipswich doesn't employ a Town Crier 😉

I think the naval gazing is because the sport's all at sea.

The fans have been doing this on Live Updates for over 20 years!! And it was started by Ipswich’s very own Crazy Sue. At one time she received a call from the Proboards CEO to say that Live updates was their busiest forum! Also, I know that in the bad old days of the BSPA’s premium rate dial-up results service, the guy who recorded it would use Live Updates because it had more details, and was often quicker than waiting for someone to call from a track. The obvious bonus with Live Updates is that you can chat during the meeting.

Still being done by Live Updates … and you get to chat with other users

I think that subject was exhausted at the time 🙃

Nostalgia ain't what it used to be. Even so, Kennett is hactually two weeks younger than Danny King. Can't imagine he will appear to be any worse than Hellström-Bängs in terms of on-track effort. He rode at Iwade for Kent Kings against Mildenhall on 10th May, beaten only by James Shane's in the final heat: Eagles: Edward Kennett 14(5), Ben Morley 12(5), Jack Kingston 11+1(5), Connor King 5+2(5), Alex Chadd 5+1(5), Nathan Hargrave 5(5). – 52 Fen Tigers: James Shanes 12(5), Ben Whalley 10(5), Sam Woods 7+1(5), Kenzie Cossey 6+1(5), Patryk Daniszewski 3(5), Max Broadhurst 0(5) – 38 I know this means nothing in terms of how Kennett might perform in the Prem, but at least it shows he's kept fit and is still interested in riding.

They ask for a volunteer from the crowd? You're welcome to check the Regs to see if there's anything that covers such an eventuality ...

By the same token of you saying J.Holder only got 6 last time at Belle Vue, Kurtz's scores at Sheffield last season were 9+1 from 5 (with a last in his final ride) and 4 from 5 (with three blobs).

Regs: 011.4 Facilities "If riding at #7 a guest from the Rising Star list must be used, their MA must be lower or equivalent to the missing rider."

You do realise you're not replying to Woffinden ...
