  1. Very strange if true, as stated he is named in the Edinburgh team
  2. Bewley & Smith are riding, RR for Lunna and guest for Perry.
  3. And the real difference is exactly what. Either you can be involved at more than one club or not.
  4. Unfortunately that does appear to be the case, those that side with Chapman to avoid any aggravation and those that speak out and incur the wrath.
  5. Or 3 the BSPA MC reserve the right to amend any team line up whenever they feel like it as they did with Glasgow v Newcastle KOC.
  6. Well let’s be honest it’s not like he didn’t have previous. Fabulous rider but just not worth the aggravation.
  7. To be fair they have won the league and the pairs and are still in the KOC, what on Earth have Sheffield supporters got to complain about. I can think of a lot of Championship clubs who would have liked a season they are currently having.
  8. And that just confirms what most people think that Chapman isn’t even qualified to be a promoter let alone the chairman, and his vice chair isn’t any better either. The whole concept of the sport in the UK stopping treating supporters like mushrooms just doesn’t seem to be getting through does it.
  9. Now been confirmed for this Friday 13th October 7.30pm start
  10. Very possibly but it doesn’t get around the fact that the ones currently riding do both leagues.
  11. And most of them have no interest in riding over here
  12. Interesting that Leicester just say he is unavailable, I suppose shopping with his wife today and having his hair cut on Wednesday wouldn’t help would it. Complete and utter farce.
  13. But if it’s the same riders in both leagues how can you make it all one big league, where do the extra riders come from?
  14. Speaking from personal experience trying to rearrange fixtures during the season which enables both teams to track full 1-7,s is practically impossible because of doubling up/down, foreign commitments, FIM meetings, grasstrack, and other reasons illness/family etc. It’s clear from speaking to other clubs and the comments from others in the star everyone is in the same boat, splitting the Premiership and Championship will help significantly but it won’t solve everything. In 39 matches Panthers have tracked Their full 1-7 - 13 times R/R. - 5 times 1-7 with Guests. - 9 times Guests & R/R. - 12 times
  15. A lot of riders don’t need help getting them excluded, if they are stupid enough to go over the centre green having been told it’s against the rules then that’s their decision, no one else’s.
  16. That would have been Olly Greenwood having a spin afterwards ) To be honest since the ruling changed I haven’t seen anyone going around the starting gate not get excluded and we have had a few this season who have unfortunately tried it, not sure why riders still do it because they have all been told.
  17. Proctor wasn’t sure of his options Alan which is why he asked Tony Steele
  18. Tony Steele had a trainee with him, Busy night for him with 8 reruns. Interesting that Proctor wanted to discuss his options with the referee (in a very calm manner) following his exclusion for going on the centre green around the starting gate. It appears with the 2 minutes being close he was told to go the quickest way to the tapes and the start Crew would raise the tapes for him, personally I understood the new rule was as long as you were on track and going towards the starting gate it was ok.
  19. 7.30PM start, weather is bright sunshine at the moment. Peterborough at full strength and Workington are using RR for Jorgensen, they have Tom Woolley at no 7.
  20. No plenty of money scares the establishment
