Yes. Which is why I pose the question.

This could be a problematical signing if there is a hard Brexit.

Might be because he is in the Polish squads of Leszno ( extraliga) and Rawicz ( league 2)

Sticking to those I have seen the five that impressed me most were: Jessica Lamb, Carly Gittus, Hayley Perault, Charlene Kirtland and Rachelle Kerr (sister of Chris). Sabrina Bogh is undoubtedly the best female rider of the modern era; Celine Liebmann and Maja Aamand look to be the best of those currently active

Now Dave DeTemple ... there was an American leg-end!

Correction it was Matty Bates not Josh. Other riders in the meeting included Austin Novtatil, Tuff McBride and Liam Rumsey

The meeting on 16 Oct was the 'Transatlantic Challenge'. (originally planned for Buxton I seem to recall) featuring the American Dream team and local riders Scratch Main: Michael Raines (US), Josh Bates, Rocco Scopellite (US), Richard Andrews Handicap Main: Raines (30m), Chris Widman (20m), Eddie Castro (US) (30m), Mikey Buman (US) (30m) Other participants included: Dean Felton, Lee Geary

Now we have the full team it is clear Lawson, King ( and presumably Harris) get the reduction. Heeps - we still don't know! Unless of course their team is subsequently declared over the limit!!

As there is no clarity over what the rule is, it is hard to tell what it is for.

The difference between Schlein and Nicholls is that Rory rode in the NL(when it was the CL), but Scott didn't so that doesn't explain it.

But he is a British national with a British passport riding on an ACU licence, so why not?

So does Schlein get a deduction?

Heeps rode in the NL for Mildenhall so should also get a 2.5% reduction

12 at Somerset was a very impressive performance. So two good scores out of the four away appearances - both on tracks he would never have ridden before. My concern would be the two point drop in his Polish Extraliga average last season.

Christina did t other

Yes - identical table

I'm not sure about this. Using CL History - part one (Vasey), he has the same results as you, and total race points for the three teams agreeing to the official figures. I have added up all the results for the three teams, and they reconcile. Have looked at league table in SS (up to 8 Sept) and added on St Austell figures for last two matches. They agree to Vasey and official totals so I see no evidence of changed results.

They tried that in 2016, but Rawicz and Opoole were so overmatched that they only rode home fixtures. One of the oddest looking league tables of all time

They are not the first team to have six nicknames. The team I'm thinking of can also count Panthers as one of their nicknames.

No nomination for best place to meet a furry friend!

No - California reopened in 1948 but never applied to join the leagues (until the SAL came along in 1954). The Reading application was for Tilehurst. A couple of attempts were made to stage speedway there pre-war and further efforts in 1963/64 before it finally opened in 1968.

I assume that a good chunk of the debt waivers have arisen from intra group loans to finance the renovations at Ashfield. Where available capital allowances will be transferred around the group and used to reduce the profits for tax purposes. The on going revenue losses should be available for group relief with the caveat that HMRC could seek to disallow the offset of losses on the grounds that the speedway subsidiary is not 'trading with a view to a profit' [note that is not the same as trading profitably]. I have experienced a challenge on these grounds when acting for a speedway client however I expect Glasgow/Allied Vehicles are better placed to resist such a challenge.

It appears to be a new rule that wasn't in the post AGM press release. However it is not a ban on such riders, but a restriction to ONE per team. ( at least that is my understanding of the situation today)

Not to be confused with the US Open (champion Aaron Fox), the AMA American Championship (won by Billy Janniro) or the US National Championship (also held by Billy Janniro) !!!

Bellego (British GSA 6.11) and Freddie Jakobsen (5.04) are the closest comparisons. So an assessed average of 5.00 hardly seems too high.
