Has the meeting finished?... Doesn't seem to be many people there!! *Edit* Pre meeting interview

Form over what period of time, days, weeks months?

Cheers Paul

Anyone have a link please?

I'd doubt it very much if you'd be allowed to use that ticket to gain readmission to another meeting... As normal PL prices applied on Monday the NL meeting was effectedly free, so you shouldn't really expect free admission to another PL meeting just becuase you arrived late on Monday!... I reckon you've got a cheek to ask!!

I didn't even know who Roynon rode for, so hardly knocking Dudley!... I couldn't give a stuff who he rides for as I have very little interest in the NL

I can't believe Adam Roynon is allowed to ride in all 3 leagues. Sure the guy has had terrible luck with injuries, but allowing him to mug kids of their pocket money in the NL is just taking the p***!!

I feel for the Buxton riders, fans and officials for a wasted journey, but anyone who saw the state of the track would agree that it wasn't worth risking man and machine in those conditions!

I only made a handful of visits to Plough Lane, the first in the late 80's... My abiding memories are the horrendous journey from my North London home and Rye House always getting a beating, except the one visit I made in National League days when we actually won! I always used to think the start and finish lines in seperate places was pretty weird, never had it explained why it was like that. Also, sitting down indoors to watch speedway seemed odd and the stadium being 3/4 empty!

While the fee is un-disclosed it reflects the potential of the rider whilst also reflecting the harsh economic climate of the current day In other words Belle Vue are skint, so accepted the first offer that came their way!

I read somewhere that the IOW had last been seen floating out into the English Channel, heading for France!

Berwick was chosen for a GP qualifier dependant on the necessary work being completed, which they have done at huge expense... The Scunthorpe promotion probaly looked at the cost, thought about it and said, "sod that!"

According to Nelsons Twitter page, his last Tweet on April 7th stated he was looking for his visa application to be accepted in June!

I've got a hunch you're not far off the mark me lord and that he's shelved his plans to race over here... The visa application story could be just a smokescreen he used to buy some time while weighing up his options. He may have had some partner pressure to stay in Australia. Who wants to travel half way round the world with a toddler to live in a caravan at a speedway track away from family and friends?

Personally I prefer to spend my hard earned money following the Rockets away from home. He is the curent NL Riders champion which suggests he is better than the vast majority of the NL boys

5.18 with bonus points, 4.47 without

Wish I hadn't asked now!!

Waco is 100% correct. This USA side look well out of their depth and will be lambs to the slaughter, especially with Ritche and JasonG in the Raiders side... Even if I wasn't out on a works do on Saturday I'd not turn up to watch this. I've been to a couple of these USA touring meetings and they were entertaining, but not with side's this weak. He's a PL second string riding on an NL reserves bikes

Do we still have to be within the 42.5 limit if we redeclare?

You had me worried there!!

He lost around a quarter of his weekly audience when Doyle left last year, the same could easily happen if Anders is let go.

11+1 last year from memory... Well impressed with him so far. My fear is that it'll be only for a short while.

I'm not the best at keeping up with other sides scores/averages etc...

Very impressed with Anders, nothing like what I was expecting... I thought we'd signed a 5 point reserve!

If I knew why he did what he did to Berwick last year I could attempt an answer!
