  1. teams using newport riders at start off season were only given a set period to use them as double up riders if they didnt find a team place in the prem they had to go full time or step down from the double up role there has been other riders in past years that have lost there prem league place and no longer allowed to double up but this is speedway and rules are not there to be followed by all clubs
  2. if sedgeman hasnt got a prem league place he cant double up so must be full timeif he has got a prem league place then he must be a double up rider as prem league would take priority if the 2 have a meeting the same night
  3. dont think sam masters is interested in the prem league poole is where his loyalties lie and thats proberbly had a say on him being dropped some clubs will drop a rider like masters to improve there team where some others will keep a rider scoring well below there average just shows the difference in ambition from promotors
  4. what sort of crowd was there compared to a normal race night
  5. maybe is but workington signed tero aarnio and he wasnt allowed to ride in the fixture against leicester i think it was and that was more than 48 hrs after signing was anounced
  6. so if he makes his debut on thursday when did he sign i thought it was you had to declare 5 days before first fixture before the signing took effect
  7. very good move from berwick they understand that money is tight and a midweek fixture will stop travling fans who have work to think about workington next week are riding friday and saturday but i bet there is no reduction at workington well done to the berwick promotion for trying to get people through the gates edinbrugh ran friday /saturday the other week and any one who produced a friday ticket on saturday got reduced admitance shows some promotions understand people just havnt got endless supplies of money
  8. this should be tried at all grounds a few have tried promotions recently if you get more in by cutting the gate price then it has to be good for the future
  9. ive been saying the same for years there should be a rule as where the start marshall moves riders in in a set order (nothing stopping the others to take there place before) as youve said maybe go gate 1 first then 2,3,4 or gate 1 then 4 then 2 then 3 but think its about time there was a procedure to follow which would make it easier to say who was delaying the start
  10. it dont matter if they get a cheap guest or a very expensive 1 they still have the same 3pt average just the same as everyother team who is missing there lowest averaged reservejust accept it and stop making posts in everythread about it
  11. peter waite was a master in finding new 3pt reservesnot afraid to go looking for talanted riders yes he could wind people up and to a point i think he enjoyed doing that but when he was interested he served berwick well wish other clubs had a backer/owner with the same passion to improve the club instead of trying there best to run it into the ground so no one wants to take it over when they pull out
  12. After he was at workington he went backwards. maybe its his lifestyle. now shaved fancy hair styles and designer sunglasses are of more interest than winning races
  13. lawson will find better form im sure unless theres something wrong behind the sceen were not seeing thats afecting him
  14. have rye house booked a guest or just gonna go r/r if the rain dont come
  15. theres more than plymouth fans thinking the same
  16. its not new for plymouth they turned up at workington a couple of years ago with only 5 riders and only 1 reserve lucky for them the meeting was rained off theres no excuess for no reserves theres plenty of national league riders willing to take there chance even if they dont score they learn how much they have to step up if they want to ride in the prem
  17. not too far from the truth there i would think
  18. tatum is a idiot for someone who rode speedway at the level he did for so long he knows very little for the short time cook has been riding speedway hes done fantastic if he had took to speedway instead of moto x then he may well have made world class he may never reach world champ but on his day he is capable of giving the top riders in the world a good race
  19. also 2 ex comets too that were very good when at workington and still are fans favourites
  20. any one found any betting listed for this meeting yet why do they all wait to last minute to post the odds we have a punt at work as a bit of fun but its a struggle sorting it out when sometimes on a friday theres still no odds online
  21. where was the el pairs held was that the showground maybe there getting mixed up between prem and that waterd down league that top riders wont ride in anymore
