  1. Read a note on Facebook by Jordan Palin a young 15/16 yr Belle Vue guesting for IofW, from the comments shown he had never seen the track before. This is what he wrote "Yesterday I scored 6 points for the Isle off wight at Plymouth track was abit tricky to start with and want to say thank you to the track staff at Plymouth for getting the track sorted for my next ride and was a really nice track to ride Was meant to be at stoke today but got cancelled "
  2. Forget to get my entry in , was going for Lambert more so would not be the competition now anyway.
  3. Good to hear no negatives about the track.
  4. Thanks for all the feedback, sounds like a good meeting . Do hate a long drawn out meeting so nice to here this one was pushed through in a sensible manner. One last question which I nearly asked in my original post is did Somerset price the meeting accordingly?
  5. What was the meeting like? Was it useful exercise for Somerset who tried out some youngsters? Also what was the crowd like?
  6. Zmarzlik £200 less- with spread stretcher .Dont mind being 1 of the 6 to fail at the next hurdle
  7. What did Greg do that was so wrong? Only black mark thing I can remember in the past few years with Greg was an incident with Nicki Pedersen in a league meeting resulting in some after race scuffle
  8. Also what would happen if someone like Ipswich came along offered him a chance in the Premier league this season later in the season. Would his loyalty still lie with Kent.
  9. 1. Tom Perry. 8.06 Stoke 2. Rob Ledwith 3.50 Kent 3. Jason Edwards 6.73 Mildenhall 4.Richard Andrews 5.92. Plymouth 5. Nathan Stoneman 7.61 Plymouth 6. Dan Gilkes 2.00 Kent 7. Jordan Palin 2.00 Belle Vue  Total: 35.82 Name Nevilles Gladiators
  10. If Kemp was to start the season well and did move upto Ipswich as has been rumoured on other threads could he continue to ride for Kent ( treble up ) ? If he did have to drop Kent could he be replaced by someone with an previous over 4 Championship average.
  11. Co-promoter Len Silver is delighted with his pre-Christmas business,“I am happy to announce now that our side is (subject to British Speedway Promoters Association [BSPA] approval):1. Drew Kemp (on loan from Ipswich and doubling with Sheffield) 9.152. Anders Rowe( on loan from Swindon, doubling with Somerset) 7.263. Jordan Jenkins ( Asset of Kent on full contract) 7.044. Alex Spooner ( Asset of Kent on full contract ) 4.505. Rob Ledwith ( Asset of Kent on full contract) 3.506. Daniel Gilkes (Asset of Kent on full contract) 2.007 Nathan Ablitt ( 15 yrs old provisional contract) 2.00Team total: 35.45 within the 36 limit imposed this year.“Both Chris (Hunt – team manager) and I are delighted with our seven riders, all of whom look to have the potential to push up their averages. "In Drew we have an out and out Number One (carrying on in the best of Kings' tradition) - he was the rider to watch last season, storming through the NL with Mildenhall and when he turned 16 immediately making a huge impression with his home town club, Ipswich. Drew will double up with Sheffield this year but we don’t anticipate this causing us too many problems with any fixture clashes. . Drew will link up with newly contracted Jordan (also a member of that unbeaten Mildenhall NL side of 2018) and, of course, Anders - a super trio to top the team.” Part of article On Kents Speedway website.
  12. Practically impossible to do this next season with the introduction of the new only 1 rider allowed with over 4 previous Championship average .
  13. Kemp has signed for Kent. Who would qualify to take his place if he was to miss a match through injury? Could it be As an example Morley , average wise fits but can he because of this new ruling about only 1 rider with the over 4 average. Does the ruling only effect start of the season team building?
  14. Would Kemp start with a 2 average?
  15. Leek obtained a 2.86 average last year so starts on that, depends what O'Keefe obtained, if he did enough meetings whilst in a declared team. Sheppard at Plymouth I believe starts on 2.01 as not as a complete newbie.
  16. Read somewhere that Hampshire not riding next year
  17. That's my understanding as well, not sure how many riders it affects, Armstrong, Bowen, Bacon, Shane's,Wilson, Ayres, Hurry,Baseby and Roynon I would have thought reached that level at one time. Not sure on Clegg, Morley or Perks.
  18. Ben Wilson is the new Number 1 that's 6 named only 1 to go.
  19. Read that Atkins wanted to only do Championship when he first signed for Somerset. Believe since then he has changed his mind.
