Jaizer

That he came in on a 4 suggested to me he didn't have that? Wouldn't he been a 2 like young Connor? But definitely if he's eligible for NDL he should be desperate to get a team place

Wouldn't bwd and Congreve need permits?

Danyon Hume be racking up the most miles in the league this season? Remember guy from the deep south travelling to Edinburgh every week for not many points. Gary Phelps maybe? But it has been difficult in the past to entice southern based riders to the northern outposts

Most recent example can think of would be ourselves at Eastbourne. Cookie and claus both got bans think Craig's was rescinded on appeal

I think it's a reserve if there's an exclusion under 2m or tapes, but if a nominated rider can't take their place in re-run then an eligible replacement from 1-5 can be nominated

Not entirely sure but might be the injury he got at the GP qualifier last year?

I was just thinking where this late team building rhetoric for Newcastle came from. As I remember had 5 signed pretty quickly and were slow to fill last 2 slots. That's a totally different thing

Horrible, horrible news. We may have made light of his commentary in recent years but speedway will never have a bigger promoter. So sad had so much of his life ahead of him

Reading between the lines of grants quotes I assume we've seen the last of BWD?

I'd be booking kiwis on first flight out of UK personally. Try get couple decent middle order men at least have bit of strength in depth

The Norwegian certainly looked decent at the gp qualifier seems the best of new guys, wasn't expecting castagna score so well. Harris letting a team down at armadale... Where have I seen this movie before

Despite the score still some decent racing. Shame Starkey had engine problems but so unprofessional from Newcastle. 2 x 3 riders races cause couldn't be bothered putting a rider in is cheating the public I'm afraid

Sorry but this is very poor from Newcastle and I don't mean about on the track!!!

Confirmed on the Glasgow stream my old man tells me

Wee bit of fisticuffs in the pits?

Tbf it's his first proper spell out of the reserve berth as only got couple matches last season I believe. Much harder to score points which might be affecting confidence in the prem. He wouldn't be first rider who needs that second spell at reserve before they kick on again.

First time I can recall the monarchs in team suits. Pains me to say it but look pretty smart. Still odd seeing the sarj in one though

Magic. Still score more than BWD probably though

"Mourinho" trying to pull a fast one with his riding order lol. I like having your number 2 in averages at 4, might slightly weaken heat 13 but gives you strong 14 and 15

The 3 established Aussies and the sarj should all be strong at home and likely only need a few points from the new riders to get the win. But if the Ricky Wells from last season's play off shows up could be a good night for the bandits...can only hope

Not at the level it is now no, that's what I'm saying if was anyway decent then maybe they would as seemed popular before

Bit over eagerness from home boys early on?

You've got your views I've got mine. We've discussed them fairly and with respect how it should be

As I've said earlier, Birmingham and Newcastle imo should be in it. Eastbourne and Workington next season. IOW should have been busting a gut to get back in. That gives you 7, add 1 or 2 reserve sides then you have a proper league

Going to have to agree to disagree on this one I'm afraid. In any sport going from amateur to professional has to be a big jump, and if you can't make it then NDL is your level. The NDL as was 4 years ago was it's best level. Revert back to that would be my suggestion
