Also there are no restrictions on riding German or French leagues, maybe even CZ, so he can be as busy as he chooses. Richard Coleman said on one of the podcasts he did a few weeks ago that doubling up was being classed as "two leagues"... Maybe it has changed?...

Maybe it has changed?... The Polish 'rules' only refer to a country's 'top' leagues, so in theory doubling down can/will still happen.

Maybe it has changed?... https://ekstraliga.pl/en/se/news/new-rules-for-riders-in-speedway-leagues-from-2027 The system will include the PGE Ekstraliga and METALKAS 2. Ekstraliga, as well as the top speedway leagues in Sweden, Denmark, and Great Britain. A rider with a contract in Poland will be able to participate simultaneously in a maximum of two of the other three national leagues covered by the agreement. ----- This does read as though only the aforementioned leagues fall within the rules. I may have read that wrong, though, as I'm sure the rule is 100% crystal clear(....) 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hilly Posted yesterday at 07:36 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 07:36 PM You would imagine the two over 8 rule had been agreed to be no more for 2027, hence Oxford making a move, alongside potentially other teams. Supposedly, two teams are not happy and meetings have been taking place, plenty of noise being made. Local radio reported the signing on Friday ( I didn't hear it but was told ) since then a few people have got very annoyed internally and seemingly a few other clubs.

Technik Posted yesterday at 08:26 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:26 PM I did a little research into Tom Brennans average he has an exisiting CL average from his time at Poole in 2024 of 9.05 & last season he finished with a PL average of 5.91 for Ipswich of course he will get the 5% British reduction but as to which counts & how its calculated is another thing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Once Brennan has ridden in the Champ his old Poole average will be used for his rolling average, so expect it to jump up. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
