6 exclusions out of 88 races for Coventry is hardly 40%. (6.818% actually)

Or Premiership 1.4 x Championship prices! (Just kidding!)

If 50 points is the initial Declaration Limit then I would suggest that somewhere around 42.5 would be the re-declaring limit. ​The only problem is what if a rider who has achieved a 'real' average (after 4H & 4A?) gets injured and you need to replace him with a new rider whos average is EL x 1.4.

So, when I win the lottery and have a team of:- Sayfutdinov, Woffinden, Doyle, Iversen, Nicki Pedersen, Garrity and Robert Lambert, that would be OK?

My mistake, sorry! I've just had it clarified by a Referee that TR's are allowed in the EL Play Off's...But not in PL!

I don't think Tactical Rides are permitted in 'aggregate ties'.

So you think he was lying in the interview when he stated that he had not contacted any other club and that no club had contacted him?

I believe Jason actually caught the fence with his hand after being forced out so wide.

And who will be missing from the Coventry line up on Friday? As for my hair colour? Obviously silver + shale red = blondish! (Because I'm worth it!) Never before seen riders having to wear goggles just to watch a race!

On one hand I agree with this post, but playing Devil's Advocate, is it fair that (without Friday's meeting being Rained-Off) Lakeside would have been twice facing a weakened Coventry side whereas other Play-Off contenders have not had that 'benefit'? ATB Dave.

Yeah! Could just have sent him a text! Usually solves any problems!

Summers is 'allowed' to ride if Leicester wish to use him now that he is available. Wolves took the option to use Hansen. They could have used Masters, but chose not to. ATB Dave

Maybe others were considering moving in for him, but were blocked by the promoter of the club that holds his registration?

How would the track be made bigger when there is the greyhound track around the outside?

Hindsight is a wonderful thing! I wonder how many Coventry fans (me included) had pencilled in James Sarjeant (6pts) for Heat 14 rather than Josh Bates (2 pts) ATB Dave

Krzysztof is on an assessed average until he has ridden 4H & 4A. The latest info I have is that Rolling Averages now only include the previous season (2015). As he did not ride in England last season his 2014 average applies until the 4H & 4A is achieved. ATB Dave

I believe that this is only a recent concession to the 'rules' regarding the showing of meeting footage, but with a restriction on how long that footage can be displayed. ATB Dave

Like the idea of lasers at the tapes and behind the rear wheel, but would a laser be visible to riders and fans on a sunny Summer afternoon?

In an interview I did with Charles Ochiltree, back in the Good Old Days of the Speedway Mail, the C.O. explained that the Brandon Bee was chosen more to wind up the Birmingham promotion at the time than for any other reason. Birmingham of course having the 'B' emblem on Racejackets. ATB Dave

I spoke to St. John of Buildbase at the Track Shop a couple of weeks before Christmas. I asked him about the 'new' stadium plans and although he did not go into specifics, his reply of "Keep The Faith" is enough to keep me optimistic about the post-2016 future of Coventry Speedway. ATB Dave

Extract from a recent Coventry Telegraph report regarding CCFC and a new stadium:- Coventry City FC chairman Tim Fisher said he could not comment on the progress of the stadium plans in order to avoid “prejudicing” negotiations. Coun Stokes added the council had spoken with Coventry Speedway bosses about finding an alternative location for a stadium, with their existing Brandon home set to be converted into housing. However, he said that was a very different prospect to finding space for a new home for the Sky Blues. He said: “A major stadium that might attract 30,000 people some day is going to be more difficult than a stadium that will attract a couple of thousand for speedway.” Full text here:- http://www.coventrytelegraph.net/news/no-new-coventry-city-fc-10595559 ATB Dave

I disagree, if the link had been put where you suggest, I for one would not have seen them as the History section is a place I rarely visit. I'm sure it will receive a wider audience here. It could always be moved there later. ATB Dave

Why not just declare that those who started 2015 as Heatleaders to be Heatleaders for 2016? Not much difference to SCB's weighted list. ATB Dave
