Shame about Charles getting injured last night, but not the first & wont be the last unfortunately to have it happen. Short & long term replacements are going to be hard to find I think. Drew Kemp & Nikolai Klindt spring to mind, or a fresh foreign signing in the hope he comes good very quickly. Oh the joys of promotion/management🙈

Seeing as the British Final doesn’t count towards the GP this year/is ridden after the GP, then technically Charles Wright should get the spot again as he is still the current “ highest” qualifier after the GP riders. I fully expect it will go to Brennan though as they will probably nominate/seed a rider rather than go on the qualification procedure.

As different names are mentioned for the promotion, surely it must be a current/recent person involved as they would probably need to be a VISA sponsor or whatever is needed for foreign riders🤷‍♂️. Just a thought

Totally lost by these replies🤷‍♂️. Obviously it’s been said somewhere but I,like many are unaware of previous news. The Northampton bit I know has been on the go for a while, it’s the “who” that’s been kept quiet🤔

Will be interesting to find out who the promoter/money man is. Whoever it is has done a cracking secrecy job to keep this all under wraps. Well done 👍

Why use your own money when someone else is offering to fund it, that’s business🤷‍♂️

Think they have to be signed to either a Premiership or a championship club to guest.

And in that statement lies most of today’s problems. The youth know the price of everything & the value of nothing. Old school vision by myself maybe, or is it just a generation thing and they will be saying it in 20+years time 🤷‍♂️

Without getting a diary out, in 2006 Redcar we’re putting the tracks clay base down in February, so there is plenty of time for Northampton to be ready for early April. I can’t remember how many facilities Redcar had in place around now, but Northampton is definitely more advanced at the moment than Redcar was. Redcar opened on the 4th April ish I think. There is a more documented state of Redcar’s beginning in another Facebook group but I can’t remember the name of the group🙈

Maybe Mr Godfrey will offer a cheap rent & lease to use Scunthorpe if Northampton can’t run 🤷‍♂️. 7 day access etc I do believe. Funnier things have happened 🤔

So Simon Lambert gets all the stick yet a World Champion is named as the second highest average rider. Couldn’t make it up 🤷‍♂️😂

Maybe team manager contract 🤷‍♂️

I know the 75% one exists as it affected Redcar last year with Erik Riss. Not sure about the other rule 🤷‍♂️ but think if it had been brought in it was to stop the possible re declarations occurring when a situation like Josh Pickering’s average drop comes about. 🤷‍♂️. Where’s all the knowledge when you need it 😂

Thanks for that 😂. Wasn’t sure if it was out of line or the angled Font of the writing. Hope it get squared up officially, can’t unsee it now 🙈

Doesn’t the team have to ride so many matches before changes are allowed? Sure this was a rule before but not sure if it’s now scrapped. 25% of matches before a change is allowed rings a bell🤷‍♂️
