What's the conversion rate on averages for premier league riders moving into elite, and national league into premier league?

Who is Paul Lambert?

I've gone for a draw With watt/Lambert and gom/groc to score the same Holder 10 points

Also boxing tonight on sky ppv

Finish work at 6pm, get my daughters ready then straight to Foxhall

And don't I agree with you 100%, Speedway in the Capital is a must.... I wonder if a GP could be held at the Olympic Stadium in the future?

I agree Speedway must re-invent itself..... I have been working on a plan whilst say at work in the office lol I like my own ideas obviously.... For Speedway to really take off, It must have a team based in London.... must be a site or something that be done in connection with the Olympic Park! It would be great to have a team based in Belfast also and an "invitational" entry into British Speedway for a team in Dublin.... yes its pie in the sky talk, but.....

I am going for a Draw.......

Yeah but short term solution at least he has been there and done it so to speak. I'd love to work for the club but not in that capacity!

I agree its time for leadership at Ipswich If I were in charge, Louis would take over as Manager with immediate effect I would also take the captaincy away from Hawkins and give it to King, its a young team they need to look to their leader and without the responsibility hopefully Hawkins can step it up

I agree to an extent but king always clears off, the only "team" I saw riding was Berwick. Ipswich are great on paper but they need to toughen up

Lots of things to look at, king is an out and out number one, scores big but isn't a team rider, had no intention to team ride with tungate in heat 15. The whole team look soft, no hard chargers willing to dominate, they should literally bully teams at home. From what I have seen Covatti, Nielsen, Manzares and King I'd keep 100%

Well done Berwick

23-25 Berwick 8 heats

4 heats in 13-11 Berwick

haha I am working that day until 6pm but my children want to go so i hope i have organised myself properly too

I presume you mean May

bit off topic so apologies, but is Ipswich's home meeting at the end of the month on the Saturday at 7.30pm start?

I probably missed that incident

Who wasn't happy with his team mate? Did I miss something when getting another burger in? I just hope when Edberg is seen again at Foxhall its because he has developed as a rider and can put on more of a show, as I said, he seemed to gate reasonably well just the rest let him down.

I thought Branford did himself proud to be honest, he looked decent, just ran out of puff as the meeting went on (who else does he ride for?) Edberg hmmm to be fair he gated pretty well indeed just a shame points aren't awarded after the 1st corner, i've not seen a rider that poor for a while but lets hope he comes back to Foxhall in the future and scores some good points. Jakobsen & Kennett looked decent, really like the look of Jakobsen to be honest

Interesting, I work in an entirely different sport where I deal with Professional (who are obviously paid) then Amateur who are unpaid but it still costs them money to do what they do, nothing in the same terms it would cost an amateur speedway rider for example as the equipment is a big cost, but its interesting to read all the comments. £3k per meeting is a good deal if you can get it lol

I obviously hear what is said "in the stands" but obviously its pure speculation, then I read from other people on this forum about riders getting guaranteed money per meeting regardless of points, just interested to see the difference between the PL & EL

I have been out of the loop in Speedway terms for several years, stopping around 1992 then really only then getting back into watching the GP since around 2011, and this year I have not missed an Ipswich home meeting. Anyway was moving off topic, does anyone know or have a rough idea or would like a realistic stab at saying what the points money is like in the Elite & Premier Leagues for the respective no1's, heat leaders, second strings then reserves? I am interested to know how it compares to my sport for which I am a promoter of, no real reason other than interest, not planning on making the move into the big black hole of speedway

Shads - I will admit my knowledge on the sport has gone off the boil, still getting to know some of the riders across all leagues, was brought up on Speedway, then my old man retired only really got back into it back end of last year. I hope i am way off and there is some close exciting racing on Thursday
