False dawn

Hang on. I think this sounds sensible. As a lifelong speedway fan in Britain, I'm a bit unsure what to say.

Thank you for that. Just to be clear, "The final Green Sheets for 2019 on the BSPA site" that you mention, are these the "2019 Team Declarations and Green Sheet Averages"? If so, Claus Vissing is clearly listed in the Swindon team at 4.43. But szkocjasid seems to think this won't apply going forward as he hasn't ridden enough meetings in the Premiership. So if a Premiership team manager today wanted to know his average for team building a 2020 team, would he have to calculate it from his old Championship average, ring up the BSPA or what?

Interesting. I must admit, despite my love of numbers, my ability to unravel the rules on this point (pun intended) is not what it could be. I'm guessing there must be a definitive source to which teams have access, detailing riders' averages for team building purposes. Wouldn't it be nice for us, the paying public, to have access to this master list?

The final team declarations show his average as 4.43 Still not interested?

I believe his last average was from the NDL in 2018 and was 9.67

There was no year nought. I'd start a thread on the subject but Fd is bored now. Besides, people would rather discuss who the other 3 signings are for the Witches eh?

Funny that. I typed tokens into the satnav on my phone and the predictive text sent me to Vojens

If that team beat the 64.84 team average above, they either improved an awful lot throughout the season or someone's abacus needs new batteries.

Where did you get it? A rare item indeed.

Don't they spray clouds with silver iodide to actually make it rain?

No it didn't. We just all celebrated it a year too early.

Well I learned something, thank you. I guess I assumed the rate was negotiated between the two clubs involved not predetermined by this document. If clubs stick to these rates and are not coming to clandestine agreements, I can't see why the document is confidential.

Not too surprising. No bu**er wants to live there. It's too bloody wet.

Oh no you haven't, not unless you've known for more than 9 years. The new decade starts exactly one year from today (no year nought!).

But shrouded in mystery. Or is that commercial confidentiality?

I thought you asked some sensible questions. Why delete the post? edit: I see. Duplicate thread

Thanks for the intel. There are many factors where a track can be placed, but you do have to wonder why anyone would build a track there!

The real trick is to have enough money to sustain your learning period, how ever long that might be. The entry costs are astronomical and your earnings potential minuscule in those formative years.

Just long enough for the cloning process to come to fruition.

Just one question. In which league does Bournemouth compete?

Actually I think Ireland's answer to the JCB is a JCB. Unless you mean Eire. JCB are definitely not EU friendly!

I think it'll have to be a very loooooong weekend. i.e. assuming Wednesday is part of your weekend.

You have to wonder why he bothers with TV game shows with all the money he makes writing books

Norman Jacobs? I'm sure I know that name.

I knew I had something that proved there were two of them......
