Congratulations to Luke (and his teammates) on a podium finish in the inaugural 250cc European Youth Pairs.

I'd guess (not claiming any accuracy) 400-450 for the first and 500ish for the second. (So as many as four or five Championship tracks I've visited this season)

Unless the FIM reverses its position on participation of Russians it would be hard to sell a meeting where all the participants would be from countries other than Russia. Good for Hansi Weber though.

Why? I can only see one rider I'd chose in preference (Pickering)

They are too busy posting on the Internet about how to save British speedway by having better line ups that will bring the crowds flocking back and the need for more meetings other than league matches.

Then why do you provide a totally irrelevant link about Sheffield council's policy for licensing of events staged Iin the public realm? MR is indeed best ignored, but it is quite possible he is right in this case. In general curfew conditions are attached to planning consents, and long running stadiums have been use since long before such conditions were common place.

Good news for Plymouth

That's a rescheduling of a previously rained off fixture. The only one in Denmark for a month. And that to has been called off (24 hours in advance!) so Hans will be riding for Glads tomorrow.

Because of early call-off in Denmark, Hans was declared in the Fjelsted team for tomorrow's match

Agree. Sunday People expose followed by World of Sport dropping speedway were the major staging posts in that decline during the 80s.

The administrators have to go by the insolvency rules. Unless season ticket money is held in a separate ring-fenced account then any unused part of the season ticket will be bottom of the list for repayment.

Add in a few 'occasional' riders and your figures were pretty much spot on the 2002 numbers.

That's true (and the odd Aussie too). Although even in 2012 the top 85cc rider in Denmark was ... Max Fricke

quick look at my records - number of regular (approx > one third of fixtures ridden) 85cc riders

New member on SOKKAR (Supporters of Kent Kings & Royals) yesterday: Connor King Are you thinking what I'm thinking?

They are definitely self employed. (I'm an a accountant specialising in tax) and I know people who sort out speedway riders tax affairs.

There plenty of industries where it is common to place restrictions of self-employed sub-contractors. I don't think Bosman would help any rider seeking to challenge the Polish rules.

Would have to be Kent all the other Southern teams seem well fixed up at reserve. I note Jody Scott's riding again, could he return to Oxford's seven freeing up Aaran (14 points on his last visit) Butcher to go to Plymouth?

So Clegg is too old at 25 but Aussie Keleher at 29 is fine?

So given the tremendous progress that's been made thoughts must be turning to getting licensed and operating. Is it still NL for 2023? There was a suggestion there might be a 'soft opening' with a BYC round possibly this season.

Only the the third non Danish winner in over 20 years. Anders Mellgren (Sweden) and Norick Blodorn (Germany) were the previous ones. Past Danish winners include: Leon Madsen Mikkel Michelsen Anders Thomsen Nicolas Klindt Michael Palm Toft Mads Hansen Benjamin Basso

Replacing the burgers with a salad van are we?

Berntzon looked out of his depth in last year's GPs, but looks much improved this year, both in Sweden and tonight. He's clearly learnt from 2021. Similarly even if Adam does struggle this season he will learn from the experience and be back next year but more competitive.

I think Oxford Conference/NDL team comes in at six too: Kids Acadamy Cubs Lions Cheetahs & Chargers

Those look like June averages. Try 9.26/7.09/6.96/6.64/5.51/5.00/2.17
