  1. Mmmmm what comes next? A rip roaring success I hope. Welcome back and see you Saturday.
  2. The real problem with this is home snappers/ video technicians will jump up and down to correct a decision that goes against the home team, but not when a manifestly wrong call is made in their team's favour.
  3. But he's ridden far more than most of the riders competing last night. By my reckoning 9 of the 14 were on their first or second meeting of the season.
  4. But limited to 7 rides so couldn't have RR, IRR, a TS and ht 15.
  5. Gappmaier would be ok, but only got six at Mureck last week. How about Antti Vuolas - scored 13 in the same meeting beating MJJ, Gusts, Huckenbeck and Rasmus Jensen (and also going well in Polish u24 league).
  6. I assume because it's a challenge match 10.5(h) doesn't apply. [That's the automatic 7 day ban following a meeting missed through illness.]
  7. There were at least two riding regularly in the Danish lower leagues last year
  8. He still rides regularly in first division at Costa Mesa. Last Saturday: https://www.speedwaybikes.com/res2023_w/CostaMesa-20230429.htm
  9. And what are the alternatives to paying on the gate? I see no details of advance tiocket purchase on the Worky site.
  10. Irrelevant. For example a 8.40 rider can replace an 8.00 rider at home but he still, and always has, assumes the replaced riders average. 75% merely refers to the quality of the guest that can be used. So if Sedgmen were to be injured in his second ride Wolves could use Douglas and St Worrall as IRR for the last two programmed rides. Whoops, have I found another loophole?
  11. Sedgmen's average is below 5.33 (75% of Becker's) so should be OK.
  12. Zach at Leicester: http://www.gbspeedway.com/2023/ridervstrack.php?mc1=s&mc2=rv&mc3=x&mc4=x&name=Zach Cook&track=Leicester
  13. Isn't it 5? (cf Jordan Jenkins 4.72 for Cheetahs). Also isn't it signing rather than riding, so if Jordan's average increases he won't be forced to stop riding for the Chargers.
  14. 360 yards (~324 metres) for all six seasons.
  15. Is this the same Nathan Ablitt who didn't make it to Armadale with the Colts last season or Mildenhall last month?
  16. Those are pathetically small amounts of rain. No yellow/ red patches at all. Quite large gaps between showers. Probably less than 10% of the rain that fell on Gorican last week, or Oxford v Poole last month. Both of which proceded without incident. If those spots are sufficient for a call off then no track is going to complete the season.
  17. But Buster says there's a dent in the crown so it may have to be postponed to an even later date.
  18. Don't think Greg's on the table (he's pro Putin), but maybe Vadim (Tarasenko) or Paul?
  19. Compared with the previous week it was pretty dull, but there were a couple of good races As meetings go, nothing special, but I've seen plenty worse.
  20. Note the use of quotation marks in that tweet
  21. Darkin's been riding regularly. Bondy came out of retirement for 2020, but only rode one or two meetings last year.
  22. Or maybe it's just Bondarenko coming out of retirement?
