I think the best thing to do is ask George tonight how the reductions work!!

Not according to the BSPA list for Team Building: http://www.speedwaygb.co/files/downloads/2017_team_building_alphabetical.pdf

All records for Birmingham would have been expunged , I believe.

We thought that for the season just ended, but were denied by the fact the top riders were unavailable on those days.

Would be 10.11 (7.22 x 1.4 = 10.108)

Cheers Dave. I only get the Star very occasionally these days.

Where does it say this?

Away Sheffield 11+1 (from 8) and Away Glasgow 12 (from 9). Quite a few let us down when it mattered IMO. My vote:0 ! I'm sitting on the fence. Part of my says keep, part of me says let go. Don't think he's going to improve his average, he is what he is now, which is the part of me saying let go. He's pretty exiting to watch though and that's the part of me saying keep. Plenty of pro's and cons, as we seem to be finding out by the split of opinion on here so far.

Mason Campton is back for 2017 http://www.workingtoncomets.co/news/article.asp?id=100725

I'm 53 (26 Feb 1963). Born in the Maternity Hospital on Abbey Road. Lived in Priors Path for the first 8 and a bit years of my life before moving to Newcastle (upon Tyne!) the week before Christmas in 1971. Still managed to see my first ever speedway meeting at Holker Street though (in 1973)!!

Not when I was born there it wasn't!

Barrow in Furness

Josh Bates confirmed http://www.sheffieldspeedway.co/news.php?extend.2222

That is correct. I should have made my point clearer. Too many play-offs!!

How do you know it would? Do you know the financial incentives for clubs moving up? All I'm saying is that the Diamonds Promotion aren't going to say at the start of the season "we don't want to get promoted," as that's almost saying "if we reach the play-offs, don't bother turning up, because we are deliberately going to lose." Which makes the season a waste of time, apart from the Cup, for the fans who are only bothered about silverware, rather than just seeing top-notch speedway every week, come win, lose or draw. If I read it correctly, if you win the play-off, you are promoted, as that is what has been agreed, so, see my reply to The White Knight.

I doubt that that will be the message the Promotion will be coming out with. Quite right too.

Last time was optional though.

Apparently, everyone has agreed to promotion and relegation, so yes.

How can you say that without knowing one single signing for the Diamonds so far?

Lindgren & Rose ?

That'll be Mr Park (no 's') and I haven't put anyone 'down', just giving The White Knight the information that it's not only George English putting the team together. As for 'hanger on' we've been through all that before.
