As for who Cooper signs for in a year or so  I expect every club will have a conversation with him and his family and he has plenty of time to decide his future.

Think that’s already been decided upon tbh. He’s already received an awful lot of help with his development and financial help to get him started. Looks a super talent for sure. 
 

And before your prickly friend from Norfolk pops up, it’s nobody’s business to be naming the club on here. The club and rider will announce when the time is right.

i dont think Kings Lynn is the only club sniffing around. If people have information dont pretend all high and mighty and show off, just tell everyone or say nothing

Erm.... I did tell everyone.    My reply isn't hidden from anyone.  :blink:     If you couldn't work it out from the obvious...

And you didn't ask "who is sniffing around"  You asked who he'd already agreed to sign for.    Asked and answered.

why would that be? if you have 3, 3 pointers, its always better to start your best 3 pointer at reserve as they can have more rides. 

Because its in the rules and occasionally they are followed. However because they are Speedway rules they are largely useless. If Jamie had averaged 3.01 in a previous season he would have been forced to be in the 1-5 but he didn't and i was incorrect on this occasion as i thought there was something about named in a 1-7 previously etc (there isn't).

In any declaration where 2 or more riders hold an identical MA (cannot be determined by a 3rd or more decimal point) then the re-declaration must nominate the hierarchical order.

Where riders have a previous MA, then the higher placed rider from the previous issue shall retain the higher position

Either way best wishes to Charlie and Max...hope they recover soon.

Did fans from Eastbourne area have a coach or minibus to get them there?

I don't think they did but I don't know on this. The car parks were full and a good crowd, loads of Eastbourne and Kent fans in attendance, a good few fans from Leicester too which was good to see and fair play to them..

Cooper does look a talent,have watched him race for a few years.Eligible for a rising star berth next year.Hopefully he will become a star of the sport in years to come.Thought Jody Scott looked impressive too.

And Harrison, how he saved it on the second bend in one heat when he seemed set to go into orbit I'll never know. Mitchell has something about him and Rutchings was much better than I expected. 

The 250cc stuff was great fun too. Roll on the next NDT meeting.

Saw a clip on youtube of the final race, track was bare and bone dry, biggest blue groove I have ever seen, this seems to be what speedway is becoming.

The fact that yours is the first post in the NL section for 4 weeks tells you what speedway is becoming

Says it all, plenty of drum banging about the Kent venture and not a peep about the match today anywhere

You've obviously not been following the two teams on Facebook then. Lots of posts on there.
