I would think Villads Nagel (Den) could have a strong case, He missed a qualification after run off but he defeated 2 of the riders that were in the top 4 through the heats. Slater Lightcap (US) is another that scored well but just fell short & it would be another flag on parade which always makes the FIM happy. The third spot is a little harder Bedner (CZ) would be another flag but his scores were disappointing. Blordon (Ger) or Rew (Aus) would also be in the mix.

He was a swinger for Deon Lynd after his own partner was injured in a crash at Western Springs.

One of the international tours in New Zealand had a sidecar passenger Rory Dingo & then to use the middle name David Rosco Steen

If a team is opperating R/R can they also use IRR & if a rider has taken an R/R ride can they still take an IRR as well? I think a home win by 14 points

Dan Thompson is the form rider, Leon Flint is struggling & I find it hard to place him in the top 3 as he has been very inconsistent. Ashton Boughen & Sam Hagon have been putting some scores together. Then a whole bunch of kids that can take points of each other & trip up the stars. I'll pick Boughen, D.Thompson & Hagon

Prince Andrew would have been there as his mechanic but was stuck in trafficing

Quite right the still picture taken from the inside doe's not even show Fredriksen's right leg & if your on the outside you would need to be able to see through 3 bikes to see what your saying The young Norwegian was lifting from the start all the way to the turn all night long. I believe his machine was set up to strong & did not suit him or the track as it pulled him past the turns most evident on the exit of turn 4 where he kept going wide & had to loose speed to set up for the home straight. It's one thing to be able to set up a bike to pull hard but another to be able to control it.

On the BSPA website there is a picture of the start of Ht 1. It clearly shows Fredriksen (Y) of gate 1 with his front wheel turned to the right whilst Heeps (B) in 2 is straight. My view is that Fredriksen lifted all the way to the turn & was not in full control went past his turning point & crossed other riders path causing the crash.

I'm guessing Lemon got a flea in his ear

I think an away win 42 -48. Oxford without Atkins doe's not hinder them But Antti missing for Comets is a much bigger problem Bailey had a good meeting at Oxford & could get a few tonight but equally he could end up with an Audi badge. Ace for Celina is a small improvment but not enough against the Cheetahs reserves who are both returning good scores more often

They have said he will need test's done using his hair. This would indicate a smoking habit, Hair samples are a normal way to test for recreational use of morrocan woodbines.

Whilst I agree the league is/should be about bringing the younger riders through, This situation would possibly done more harm than good as they would have been riding at number 1 for Redcar & 2 for Oxford. The rules do not allow promotion of a reserve & then the unattached rider slots in as reserve

Middlesbrough had to make a redecleration to use Mudgeway as Jake Mulford was away at an international meeting in Germany & it was deemed to be more helpful to his ongoing progress to honour this commitment & to offer a team that used a novice at number one was not a step the club wanted to take. So step forward Jade Mudgeway & thank you for your efforts. For Wayne Hutt I'll agree he is not at this level & he is 40 but he is available as a 3.00 unattached rider & there might have been others but with limited options he stepped in to fill a gap. Both teams had a full 7 riders, each race had 4 starters weather we like the rules or not both teams complied without question & a full match was seen by all.

Sometimes I think Buster acts like a two year old. This will have minimal effect on him but doe's more to damage the trust of his loyal fans. To say calling off a meeting to save riders from traveling from another country is a poor excuse as the flights will already have been paid & without good reason a refund will not be given & a postponed meeting is far from good reason

I think we all understand that if it's raining we don't race. But this was called off yesterday afternoon on the strength of a weather forecast & it's not the first time it's happened. The difference tonight is that Norwich will play Leeds in the play off semi & KL/Buster are afraid they will get a poor crowd. I'd say keep calling off early & that's a nailed on dead cert!

Big Black clouds over Wiltshire & Berkshire..... ....so Kings Lynn must be off again

If a big blue van with Tesco printed all over it pulls up outside your house & your doorbell rings the man standing there holding a blue tray with your shopping order in it. Do you invite him into your home? or do you ask him if he's been in prison first?

The girl had life changing injuries. & I don't think it was a not guilty verdict. As I understand a very expensive barrister supplied to the riders plea bargained for a behaviour bond & a large compensation pay out.

I know he had numerous drug/alcohol tests when he was riding & he always laughed & went along & at no point did he ever provide a non-negative sample so I'd suggest that will remain the case. especially if he is under any form of probation scheme because he can & will be tested at any time so no racing schedule to work by. If by staying away when he's riding at your track makes you happy then that's what you have to do but there's no need to try to influence others to do the same. The Guys done wrong & been punished for it let him have his chance to prove he has changed. So many before have suffered time away or been banned by the sports bodies & they have come back into the sport at a latter point & worked hard to regain their deserved respect.

Back with Reading Petri Kokko rode at reserve one season after arriving with an unimpressive opening CV gained at Newcastle & took often 6 sometimes 7 races in a meeting. I'm not sure but this could have been in the early stages of Lee Richardson's career. For sure they both went on to produce big scores for the Racers as heat leaders.

As I understand it filming companies are required to attend each track a certain number of times in the season so everyone gets a fair showing. I respect that the Plymouth side are possibly not a great draw with R/R at #1 but they must have their time. Later in the season as the league develops & the play offs begin then the bigger teams will get their time.

I have to agree Lee would often fall multiple times in a race when he first started at Reading. until he was taken under the guiding wing of John Davis who I believe single handed turned this raw talent into the World star he became.

Excellent racing all night. Killeen was the match winner in my view. Bougoen looks like a beaten man, A big off in his first race then he backed out going into turn 3 in another his confidence is so low I believe he should return to NDL & learn how to win races. He is still 16 & has a big future theres no need to push so hard in his first full season. Glasgow to be fair other than Harris & Worrall looked poor. The reserves were very bad & both vastly experienced with good family pedigrees. Well done Oxford. It's going to be a headache fitting extra meetings in with 3 teams to run. Lets hope the rain continues to dodge Oxford.

Oxford for the win 50+

It has been the same for everyone for many years. The sentence handed down is the maximum an individual will serve. But the term is only set for half & parole can be applied for at that point. With the time served & the offender demonstrates good behavior whilst incarcerated, shows remorse for their previous actions with a plan to improve in society & follow a set plan with a registered probation office. The sitting panel will consider all aspects & decide if the applicant is safe for release.
