Even if the Polish/FIM obstacle is overcome Emil would still need a visa and I guess the Home Office might take a little longer convincing that Emil is not a pro-Russian warmongering moneylaundering oligarch than (say) Ben Basso.

I like Alfie, but he has a lot to prove, away from Plymouth [2.89 away average in 2022]

Come now, could have gone to Leicester

The points limit should (among other things) be a function of the number of teams in the league. So when Newcastle dropped out the logical move would have been to push the limit back up to 42.

I was at that meeting. But it is worth noting that Killeen leant his track craft at Pinjar Park [142m]. Ablitt v Killeen at NSS might be a different proposition. Also Aaran Butcher got paid 14 from 5 rides - it was not the strongest Plymouth team.

No because Cook rode in 37 matches, and the 19 you've chosen to rely on are heavily skewed to the start of the season.

Your figures are not across the whole season - only one match after 20 July. Post season in this context means after completion of regular league matches

Post season Ben Cook averaged 7.13 from five away matches (none at reserve).

20 is too many . Matches from July last year will still be in Championship averages at end of next season. I'd rather have 16 for both leagues than different rules for Prem and Champ.

How much did they pay for their semi final spot?

Agree with you on Kasprzak. We know KK is inconsistent. But he's still a force in the Ekstraliga and I think a lot of people are underestimating him.

This is a non debate, like many before him I would expect Morris to be no more than back up for Grindsted, riding the odd match when Birmingham don't have a fixture.

It has been under discussion, and given Armadale are ru n8ng I think k it is highly likely that it will go ahead.

Does this mean Armadale have got their wish to include Jacob Hook?

Can't see him making many appearances given Birmingham race day is Weds.

What - bunch of Clowns who've never won a serious competition?

Gillman 300m Mildura 302m Kurri Kurri 320m North Brisbane 350m Pinjar Park 300m (big track), 142m (small track)

Not having rider in a GP qualifier since 2017 might have more to do with it.

Still 4th in the away averages (Musielak, Kurtz move above him)

Masters had the highest average (official fixtures exc bonus) of any rider in the Premiership last season bar Jason Doyle. How the hell is he not a number one?

Another thing that makes the Poole offer attractive is that near certainty of extra meetings as they are pretty much nailed on for the play-offs most seasons

Add in Kubera, Kolodziej and home advantage and they look crushingly strong to me.

Good news

Just an approximate date would be helpful, like ... ... which decade?

Most of the difference in their Championship scores was down to Hume riding half his matches at reserve. Very little t9 choose between them, I'd be happy to have either of them in any team I supported.
