Seen IofW 3 times this year at Plymouth and each time they looked poor( Wilson, Cockle Greaves apart). Sealey really struggling at reserve. I know the 2 tracks are so different but if you do have the pts spare I would use them wisely to strengthen up.Plymouths change of Roynon for Smart has made them so much stronger.

Swindon - Plymouth 22.6.17 National Trophy Meeting
iand replied to A ORLOV's topic in National League Speedway
The statement below answers your question regarding Young Henry Atkins. Atkins will be present at the Devils clash at home on Friday but unable to ride. His father is out of the country on a business meeting and requested that the Devils youngster miss the two clashes which the promotion have agreed to. Rider-Replacement will be utilised to cover his rides with Benji Compton, Richard Andrews , Callum Walker and William O’Keefe eligible to take his rides.

But how can we bring in Grondal, it was quoted earlier that we had to keep Branford and Perks to comply with the rules when I talked about bringing Barker in for Branford. Does that rule not apply?
-
Barker rode NL and Klindt didn't , not sure what rule would stop Ben being included.
-
Ben Barker replaces Ricky Wells tonight at Belle Vue. Would he fit average wise? Not everyone's favourite but will the promotion make a change.
-
Very harsh comment. Lakeside and BSPA previews both had Steve down as an injury doubt. Steve tested his back in a pairs meeting on Friday, struggled and pulled out Saturday morning. Plymouth tried to get a replacement but couldn't. Don't know when Lakeside were told of the planned R/R and if there was time than to put out another press release. Obvious choice would have been Bowen, but to change your plans at the last minute on nice sunny Saturday night and upset her indoors might have been difficult.

The new promotion at Plymouth of Laurence Rogers and Mark Phillips have been very open,frank and honest with people on the Plymouth Speedway Forum and seem very genuine in their responses and willing to help where possible. Quite refreshing in today's world.

Plymouth Devils V Swindon Sprockets Friday 26/5/17

Saul Bulley rides for Swindon tonight at 6 according to Swindon website. -
I know what you mean Ben. Personally I find it strange that a press release regarding a single match is put on the Rye House2017 thread and not on the particular meeting thread.

Somerset V Rye House- Rye House V Somerset 19th/20th May
iand replied to JamesM09's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
A Rye fan living in Cornwall. Watched the meeting at the OTA, remember commenting about most of it being FTG. Yes we had some very good races, but not every race( Nicholls superb). Some were quite spread out. Miss my weekly visits to Rye. You can't beat live speedway. -
Are Gravasen and Tungate still able to guest for other teams? as they don't have any other attachments.

Mr Schroeck was heavily criticised last season with regards to some bad decisions, he appears not to have learnt from them.

Wolves V Rye House - 24th April 17
iand replied to Beowulf's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
A injured rider can covered by the I/R/R rule during the meeting if the rider has to be replaced due to a NEW injury taking place. A good rule IMO when used correctly, not sure where a migraine fits into the rules. I certainly wouldn't want to ride a speedway bike with one. -
Apart from Ryes rain-0ff kings Lynn fixture, as far Branford and Perks are concerned all Ryes fixtures are originals so Rye have priority, but with Wells the same fixtures are counted as rearranged fixtures and Edinburgh have priority. If Edinburgh have to cancel and rearrange in the future a fixture, will Rye then have priority over Wells?
-
What's the point of the priority list, if you then ignore it and change it to whoever signs the rider 1st.
-
Thanks , just seen your answer, hope you're right.
-
i believe this is ruling regarding doubling up riders, but how does this relate to Ricky Wells this season in fixture clashes 16.1 Fixtures shall take priority as follows: FIM SGP, SWC, SGP Qualifying Meetings, FIM U21 World Speedway Championship Meetings, FIM Europe U21 Championship, British Championships (Senior, Junior), BSPA Shared and Fee Events, Official Competitions: 1. SGB Premiership; 2. SGB Championship; 3. National Development League. NB. Non-Official Competitions have no priority over any of the above. A Rider must be released to take part in a higher priority Meeting, unless he is “Doubling Up”, in which case the priority for a clash of Official Meetings is as follows: - 1) The Original Fixture if there is a clash with a re-arranged Fixture 2)1st priority to the owner of the rider 3) 2nd priority to the previous season club 4) 3rd priority to the league in which the owner club is a member.
-
Who will have priority when Edinburgh and Rye fixtures clash? No idea who owns Ricky's contract.
