But if crowds are (say) twice/three times that much wouldn't it just lead the application being turned down on traffic grounds?

As the captain of the Titanic said about the iceberg. [There was no drone at Cardiff in 2023 because it crashed in practice]

No Beau Bailey, Australian, just turning 16, SGP3 medalist.Probably a better prospect than Cairns

Oxford Chargers v Belle Vue Colts 27/7/25 3pm

He should have accepted the booking, could have had 9 rides then [8 in practice because ht 9 might have been a bit tricky] -
Extra rides for Ingram and Perry is probably doing more for rider development than drafting in Sam Woods.

It doesn't. Ask Oxford.

Plymouth Gladiators v Oxford Cheetahs 26/7/25 7pm
arnieg replied to NumberEight's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Isn't it: guest or R/R for missing rider followed by ban for withholding services or 75% guest and no ban. - looks like Plymouth have gone for the latter. -
I thought of that but as the potential missed match is his debut wouldn't that be a 75% guest? [And therefore lower than Cook]

Glasgow v Berwick Friday 25th July
arnieg replied to AndiCapp's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
To the best of my knowledge neither of these competitions are usually broadcast on Polish TV (except possibly when staged in Poland) And why would Polish TV wish to broadcast the European Pairs in competition with the Polish Championship Final on the same day. The list of winners is hardly stellar: https://pl.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mistrzostwa_Europy_par_na_żużlu As for the Euro Junior Teams it's been going since 2008 and the main feature is the constant hanging of the upper age limit. Funnily enough I've just written an article about an event that exactly fits your description - the World Speedway League. -

Looks to me as if Aug 7 is only clash as Solkatterna probably won't make play-offs.

Is that Victor Palovaara who rides for Solkatterna on Thursdays?

Current guest tally: Spires 15 Cheetahs 14. [So Cheetahs guests will overtake Spires guests tonight] Edwards will become third rider to guest for both Spires and Cheetahs this season. [Zach Cook and Vuolas being the others] Oxford top in both leagues!
