Says the one who have Ben Barker in their team......

You know what you're getting with the 5 riders signed so far. The latest two will give you 100% each and every race and with Ash, Robbo and Ludde, we should have some terrific racing at Brough Park this season, no matter who the last two signings are. Just shy of 13 and half points left for those two spots Which way to go (depending on whose available)? An 8 and a 5? A 7 and a 6? A 10 and a 3 or a 9 and a 4 (I'll not be holding my breath on that two! LOL)??

Of course it is, but, I'm still to be convinced that Sheffield and Peterborough have been the only tracks willing to host the PLRC (as it was) or the Fours for the last few years (up until last year when the CLRC was switched to Glasgow).

It's a "Shared Event," so, surely, it should be 'shared around' the tracks? It can get a bit boring going to the same place for the same event every year (PLRC etc), so a different place, for me, anyway, is good.

That's not my 'style.'

You're quite right, it wasn't. My mistake. (I'll edit the above post!).

Of course you are allowed an opinion. It's a Forum. I just thought it was apt to highlight this part of the article, due to a few on here saying they didn't want him back. I think "hate" is a strong word to use, but, like many riders, Ludvig is a bit like Marmite. You either like him (as a rider/capatain), or you don't!

It was. But someone mentioned The Sweeney episode, so I posted a link to the clip that is often edited out for TV these days. Be thankful no one has mentioned either Crossroads or King Cinder......... By the way.... here's a clip from Once a Jolly Swagman.

He's signed for Coventry in the NL and Coventry's home meetings are on a Sunday at 4pm., so I doubt he will be signing for us.

Here is that clip:

Ludvig Lindgren piece on the Diamonds Website. For those who didn't want him back, the last paragraph is just for you!! http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100824

That's a bit of a b***ard...

I just state the obvious.....

Can't confirm, but I would guess it means captain.

July 1st confirmed as the date for the Fours at Redcar.

21 July is Cardiff, so we wouldn't normally run on the day after, i.e 22 July in this years case.

Scunthorpe and Lakeside both have one (at a very quick glance)

No Tour (again) in 2018... Ipswich, Peterborough and Lakeside all as one offs.

And up against each other in the 1st Round of the KOC.

Third signing will be announced at 8pm tomorrow (Wed 24 Jan). Diamonds just Tweeted:

You could say that about a few riders tbf.

So that leaves just Berwick and possibly Lakeside who will be riding on a GP night. I don't think it's going to be a major issue if he's allowed to ride in the Championship in 2018,

I guess it will depend on who he is flying in to represent?

There will be an announcement soon (according to Danny on both Twitter & Facebook) to say that he has signed for a team. It didn't say in which league, though. He had signed a week or two ago, but couldn't say who for (again, that was on Twitter/Facebook).
