There's no problem with Wolves signing a British kid. They're discussing whether clubs can sign foreign assets without them riding for that club.

Completely wrong. I guess you missed the news from yesterday's press day where Blodorn was given the No.6 jacket and spoke to the gathered press via facetime? Just can't come over yet because his visa has been held up. Good old Brexit.

How is it poor? Comparing to last year..... Fricke is a like-for-like replacement for Bewley. Kurtz, Wright, Brennan and Etheridge are the same people. So the comparison is that you think Lebedevs and Blodorn are much poorer than Worrall and Worrall? I'm not sure I'd agree. I'd suggest they may be stronger.... Last year BV finished runners-up to Peterborough. But while BV are stronger this year, Pbro are weaker due to experienced super-reserve Pedersen being replaced by inexperienced Basso, and all the other old-guard being another year older. The only problem is that some of the other 4 teams may be stronger, and I'd say that applies mainly to Sheffield.

Think it's one of the existing 5 signings who can't make it to P&P. Expect the final 2 to be announced.

Not aware of any other brothers in the final. Ila and Pepe Teromaa represented Finland in the 1975 World Pairs Semi-final but didn't qualify for the Final. There's possibly some lesser countries represented by brothers in World Pairs preliminary qualifying rounds. Adi Funk seems to have ridden for Austria in a preliminary round alongside a Robert Funk who may be his brother.

LOL. "I didn't have any bitterness to Smith" < Goes off on yet another bitter rant about Smith > At least you bring comedy value.
-
The laughable thing is that his bitterness was towards Adrian Smith, but now that Smith has moved on, he's had to find a new target to attempt to troll. What an absolute sadsack

You're entitled to believe what you want to believe. But keep saying it doesn't make it true. (nor does a silly amount of exclamation marks!)

I've read Godfrey's statement . I've also read Dan Bewley's comment which caused Godfrey's hasty panic statement. Which one is true? Well, I make that call based on which person I believe has no reason to lie, and which one I believe has a documented history of not being entirely truthful. Bit of Background Reading

Yes. Definitely seems the case that the Poles have dropped the two league only rule. Godfrey is trying to spin it some other way, because other teams completed their teams early, while Lemon looks like he had inside info from Poland and waited for the rule to be dropped. The teams who completed early seem to have gone bellyaching to Godfrey about being outsmarted. Would be interesting to know which 2 PL teams supported the Aces and which 3 put the block on their legal team declaration.

Michael Masi might have engineered a fixed Formula1 championship with a corrupt end to the season, but he's not really in Rob Godfrey's league.

Why don't you just message his grandson, Mattie Bates?

2022 championship predictions

Poole Glasgow Leicester Plymouth Edinburgh Berwick Redcar Oxford Scunthorpe Birmingham Newcastle -
Looking like this prediction was spot on. Phillips, Woolley, Rothery, Lewis Millar and Josh Embleton finally named. Gregor Millar surely a certainty. Leaves room for Willie Lawson.

Do you mean nationality-wise or ability-wise? In terms of nationality I don't know if Luke was born in England or Australia, but he'd qualify as British because his parents are British (being the son of the former Belle Vue and Wolves second-halfer Frank Killeen - known as "Fearless Frank" or "Frank the Fence" depending on how he was going at the time). In terms of ability, I don't know if riding in an Australian State Championship still allows him in the NDL on a 3.00 average. (presumably it must). -
Seems Jack Parkinson-Blackburn had a self-contained workshop within one of the units that was completely gutted in this fire https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-leeds-60057425 He's lost both of his bikes and all of his tools and equipment. If anyone can help him, there's a "Go Fund Me" page here:- https://gofund.me/ca7617db

Plus you'll have access to the previous 20 matches from earlier in the season as they say they'll stay available all year on demand. -
Third name is George Rothery

7 days since announcement no.2. Thought we might have had a third name today.
