Phillips not signed for anyone (yet?) Wethers not signed for anyone. Jack Smith eligible too.... !!!

All I know is various riders have been approached and, as far as I know, all are ex-Diamonds riders.

But that is the point.... he didn't miss a year, he rode in the NDL. As I've stated before this "non-professional" League is a load of nonsense - if he got paid he was a professional in a professional league.

If you get paid, is that not classed as professional? If it's amateur, you don't get paid?

England begin their World Cup campaign against Croatia in Dallas on 17 June with that game kicking off at 22:00 BST. Their next Group L fixture is against Ghana in Boston on 23 June and is at 21:00 BST, with their final group fixture against Panama at 22:00 BST on 27 June in New Jersey.

Redcar vs Diamonds Select - Tyne/Tees Trophy - Fri 20 March 2026 - 7.30pm

4.13 less his British reduction

Billingham about 10 miles from Redcar

That's a good question. What IS he actually doing/done so far?

Hasn't stopped Jack Smith getting a "gig" year on year, has it?

Having said that though, they'll have Josh Pickering and he is worth watching, wherever he rides.

I thought the final decision rested with the Speedway Control Bureau ??

Probably not, until the fixtures are announced.

I am led to believe you can forget Steve Worrall.

I remember a few years ago, being told that Len Silver, the then promoter at Rye House, paid all seven riders the same amount per point, whether they were a number one or a number seven or anything in between. This came directly from a rider and his dad. Whether there were add-ons to that, I don't know. There quite possibly was (sponsorship etc).

Cobblers...... 🤣

Agreed, sort of. But the costs to that rider (for example engine tuning/repair) may also be an influence, so you could just as easily blame them, rather than putting it all directly at the riders door??

So, despite fans saying "the sport is dying, something has to be done" and "we want more fixtures", it's the same old same old. Promoters don't seem to want to listen and are, basically saying "all is well with the sport". Head in the sand continues from them. Some teams will finish their fixtures in July/early August and some will struggle to get their fixtures in by the end of October. It's pathetic.

I think he built the tracks (greyhound & speedway), did he not? RIP Cliff

What about a Premiership rider on a converted average?

All this just highlights the reason I have a certain "rat" on ignore. Trouble is, I still have to see the rubbish he posts 'cos people still quote the idiot. Please STOP quoting him, all your doing is feeding him. It's what he wants. If everyone ignores him he will eventually go away - unless the Mods ban him permanently of course.

That'll be the same Ipswich that, after the Promotion/Relegation Play-off with Newcastle in 2010, decided to drop down to the second-tier? Same promoter who has now decided to sell as he is disillusioned with the Premiership in 2025/6?
