Malcolm,the new Dawn at Stoke Speedway Tattum speaks about,does she work in the bar or the turnstiles???

how the hell does it get to a point where a pro speedway rider doesnt have a bike ready after doing nowt for 4 months plus...would an Aussie or a Dane be in that position???

in a word Yes;-)

i wish that would happen more over here,not the ban bit....pure entertainment

So how did Newcastle get RR of Tully last year then??---i think the rule has been changed

When i saw wuffy had bought a boat on twitter i thought he must have signed for Somerset.....

Im not sure how that works,? im sure it depends on more than "oh he got one so i should"

North of the M62= Zoo exhibits :wink:

Maybe so i was just confirming that the information the Ryan had been refused is not true,nor is it fair to blame the riders i dont think as most have gone down the same route as before with Tiers 2 visas When Ryan left for Aussie back in the Autumn he had all the correct paper work etc need[as i believe did the others] it is the wording of a certain paragraph on the requirements that has caught them out,Ryan inculded,but as of now Ryan hasnt actually been refused

that simply isnt true...i know that for a fact.... total sh y te.... Nelsons refusal is totally different to Ryan Douglas....and the rest struggling to get clearance...

Newcastle will be there or there abouts,always very strong at home which will see them up there,

Its something to do with re-newing the T2 visa,or maybe something to do with the fact that the tier2`s were never meant for Speedway anyway and the power at be have picked up on it I was told that at one time if you had an issue you could leg it to Canberra and get it sorted,but now all Visa`s etc are out sourced to Manilla or some place I wonder what would happen if Doyle etc jumped on a plane on a tourist visa,say for a month,then went to Aussie embassy in London and said hey mate i been offered a job--can i stay for six months or can you fix it for me ---wonder if that would work? Still think that somewhere the UKBA will show some sense and allow them in,after all they are i guess reasonable people whos job is to prevent ass holes etc coming in not some lad who will come,work and pay tax

Bit harsh that.--seems its a change in the rules that has caught them out,not so much they didnt sort them out Looking at the UKBA website,i fail to see why Doyle etc cant use T5 visas,infact the wording of it indicates that that is the one they should use,not T2

It seems alot of cricket players who come here from Aussie/NZ to play at various levels are also having huge problems with visas

One of the nicest lads I have met in speedway..top guy is MPT..hope he has a great season for the Aces

To compete with the Heathens!!! :wink:

Being to goOD for the NL is how it works.,,,,and there is nothing wrong with that..and im not sure who is to good for the EL??!

it is true that riders have developed beyond the NL, but at the same time its is true that not enough has been done at what you could say Generation 1 stage,riders making league debut,total rookies,after all,the riders you have mentioned were rookie onces that is where we need more spaces,then you will produce riders for the top on the NL and other leagues Danny Phillips is a classic example---was without a team place last year,and that is wrong for a lad of his ability---these type of riders must be given places,but that is same in other leagues---Briks,Auty and Roynan not in the EL is equally wrong

someone from Dudley said that back in 2010 and i think we nearly stuck 60 points on you!!!pmsl

2 of them aint even chucked the leg over a speedway bike yet!!;-) but im sure they will soon be scooting around the EWR

still a cr a p team Malc;-):-)!!! Happy New Year btw

a quick glance through the photos from this meeting and i cant see a blue grove?

cant see the point in adding Lee to a team with the intent on developing riders for the future!

I would imagine,where possible they will be run as double headers but weather and other stuff can often change that! Im so pleased Scunny will jump back into the NL,and from what ive seen recently there is some very talented kids to put in that 1-7
