He will be slating the British system of guests & r/r probably all this week. Best to have him on ignore(barring other posters quoting his posts. 100% utter

It will soon change to a "covid reaction" as the young lad had his 1st jab & felt ill about 18-24 hours later after doing a double header Saturday night.

t the moment it is looking irrelevant as Glasgow leading 35-25.

He can not get past the Border Control/Mafia who know nothing about the sport of Speedway.

put some more of that shale down on the track rather than leaving it on the "landing strip" on the infield.

At present, weather predictions for Friday are 15-16C & cloudy & for Sunday 12C & showers.

It is a generalization of most teams when rain expected & not just tonight at Glasgow.

Spitting dummy(ies) out now are we.

From what I have read on other topics, nearly every team/curator preps a slick track if rain is expected.

We, as Scunthorpe patrons, like seeing open & exciting racing on our track as it seems very fair & wide leading to many racing lines but I have read many times in print & social media that riders find it hard riding at Scunthorpe because they are nearly all guessing the right set ups to use every time they come. Some riders can find that sweet spot almost straight away(Douglas & King spring to mind) & even Pickering, on his visit here this year, found speed out of the corners I could not believe.

Why have a meeting if this was, probably, their intentions even before Mondays result was known. This could have been done over the phone, live on air Monday night.

also, with Pedersen probably moving to reserve in October. Strange!

Or even on Glasgow's track in 2019, only home defeat v Scunthorpe.

It has been extended once from the 16th to the 26th of September.

He had an illness of which he fought privately. Tell that to the family & friends of the late Sarah Harding & John Challis & many, many others who had illnesses but when that day comes, it is sad for everyone.

same as for a draw, 1pt home 1 + 1pt bonus away

Just last week alone, in 4 Premiership meetings, 1 had no guests, in the other 3 r/r x 1 G x 5. In the Championship, in which there were 9 meetings, not 1 used r/r or G, but r/r x 7 & G x 16 times was used.

In 6 man teams, the top rider will probably have 6 rides, the next 4 riders would have 5 rides & the lowest rider 4. How many guest riders do we use every week? 1-3? 4-6? 7-9? more? Riders can still go into the "assistance pot" even if they ride in 1 league but use the conversion rate as we do now.

Workington 2018. Won League, KO Cup & Shield with a team picked late. (thought Neila or Geoff100 would have posted this but probably do not come to the Premiership section too often. )

Going by the original date for play offs being from 17th September (why have rules if you are going to break them to suit others), 4 teams have now ridden their allotted 20 meetings & as of today, the league placings are 1. Poole 2. Redcar 3. Glasgow 4. Leicester 5. Edinburgh 6. Scunthorpe These are not final placings as some teams could not be bothered in arranging on alternative nights so were given a 10 day extension. This now means that the play offs have been shortened from just over 6 weeks to around 5 weeks &, as it stands at the moment, 4 of the 6 teams mainly race on Fridays. Lets us see how many change a race night to suit when the weather gets worse during October.

With the Championship Play offs being shortened from 6 1/2 weeks to 5 weeks, I would think it would be VERY difficult to arrange a CLRC.

6 man teams with riders earning more as they get more races. Riders not chosen in declared teams go in to an "assistance pot" where they are allowed to assist any team up to a maximum of appearances. Riders earn more, lessens doubling up/down, team identity no longer guest/joke issue.

I can not see the reason it shouldn't as 1 meeting at home & the other away. From what I remember because of a few years ago(think it was Scotty), a rider can not ride for 1 team then the other in a 2 legged tie.

He puts that many ideas on here, then rambles on about them, that if he put them to his own promoter, his promoter would not have time to do his own jobs.

A bit of both possibly
