Well his local track is now Sheffield......

So its now in effect 0.71248 instead of 0.60? Taking Hansen's ave into consideration 5.5 / 0.6 = 9.17 5.5 / 0.71248 = 7.70 Thats a difference of 84%! In 2014 the average EL admission was £16.65, PL admission was £15.23 (conversion rate of 0.915) does that now mean admission will also reflect this new conversion rate?

Team to beat. But that's what everyone said about Workington this year. ......

So this will mean that any rider with a EL average under 6 is now open to the "new and improved" average conversion? That includes riders missing from 2014 then? some good out there with interesting aves now then........ Thomas H Jonasson finished 2013 on 5.69 new PL average of 7.97 Others: Robert Miskowiak 7.15 Dennis Gizatulin 6.27 Jonas Davidsson 8.30 Jesper B Monberg 6.44 Dennis Andersson 7.60 Dawid Lampart 6.41

An increase of .75 for each year then? If every Witch next year does that then we be in with a shout!

How is 7.70 correct? What was his el Ave? And what's the conversion rate?

7.70 really? where that come from?

Still a future son in law but now lives in Loughborough i believe.

But will Risager need to ride at Ipswich as no longer lives local?

Interesting quote from Chris Louis “It is fantastic to have Danny back at Ipswich which is of course where his professional career began when my dad gave him his opportunity back in 2003. I’ve always had a great relationship with Danny and I feel he is just the right sort of racer and character to take our team forward. The two-year limit on doubling up obviously puts a limit on his Premier League availability, but who knows where the club will be in two years’ time? From my point of view, signing a local lad who is well liked by fans, officials and riders alike, as well as a proven entertainer, is the best possible start to our team building for 2015.” Hmmm......

Yup Masters 8.22 Tungate 8.36

Taken from Lovespeedway24.co.uk Ipswich Witches director of speedway Chris Louis has told Suffolk fans they won’t have to wait long before they find out the team’s No.1 rider for 2015. Louis returned buoyed from a positive British Speedway AGM Conference at the weekend and promised Witches fans the rider to lead the charge for Premier League honours next year will be announced soon. “I hope in the next week to tell our fans who the No.1 rider is, ” Louis said. “The reason I am not able to now is because it depends on more than just personal contract negotiations. “As I have said before I have a number of permutations in my head with the team but the AGM has left me with a more fixed idea, as the 42.5pt team-building limit remains.” Whether Louis will go for a strong top end, or a more solid-looking 1-5 in the Witches team of 2015, he would not confirm. But Louis has admitted he would work with any of last year’s team again – and that includes current No.1 Rohan Tungate. As regards the AGM, itself, Louis admitted it was the ‘most positive’ one he had attended. “We are sorting out the doubling-up rule which has totally lost its way over the last few years. And everyone who knows me knows I’ve been a big critic of the Fast Track rider system which was introduced last year. “This year it is being tweaked. Too much has gone wrong over the last 15 years in speedway and there was lots of debate about sorting the sport out over the next few years. “It was the most positive AGM I’ve been to.” The Witches have been drawn against Berwick in the first round of the Knock-Out Cup, the winners racing Rye House or Workington in the quarter-finals. The League Cup will stay the same and the play-offs will be the top six teams, but with the top two going straight into the semi-finals – there will be no mini-leagues.

"Witches to name new number 1" Thats whats on todays local flysheets, paper goes on to say that Chris Louis will name rider within week. Currently "depends on more than just personal contract negotiations" Continues to say that he has a number of permutations in his head but has a more fixed idea since the AGM. Would work with any of the 2014 linep again in 2015.

But nothing on the PR from the BSPA though? Does mean that all the teams apart from Poole can keep their final 5 from 2014. Poole 1.69 over If Auty is "in" does that also mean any Brit under his ave will be allowed to be a FTR? Plus what happens to Steve Worrall with his ave of 7.54? Still lots of questions to be answered.......

Wheres the only 2 riders over 7 come from? Currently there are 15 riders over 7 from this years averages But what happens when all then GP stars want to come back?

Everything is fixed.... the yelllow and black helmet colour is back! No further business needed!

Seems strange that everyone keeps going on about Evans when there is a convicted rapist who owns a Championship club and from what I recall this has been swept under the carpet.....

Haha. Think someone was having a laugh when that was mentioned!

Only 5 months until season starts!

Wasn't being specific with King, but why shouldn't "assets" of a club be given something?

Why not get a reduction for being an asset?

But then the ones that always leave after heat 14 at Foxhall would see even less of the main match!

One thing that would be good to come from the AGM is that they could let in free the updater to provide the updates more "officially" Maybe even give away 2 "match tickets" 1 to the home updater and 1 to an away fan to give an unbiased view? But yeah great service

If Worrall goes then its 5.44 to play with. (Mat Tress 5.44) However If its a 5 pointer that could increase ave by a good margin eg Brady Kurtz then not bad?

Tungate happy at Ipswich: http://www.lovespeedway24.co.uk/teams/ipswich-witches/witches_no_1_tungate_why_should_i_look_to_move_i_m_happy_at_ipswich_1_3834003
