    I thought Harrison would be the only rider kept from 2025 - and, at the same time, thought he’d do better to get away from the comfort of the EWR. But having stayed, I hoped he would kick on but he’s started the season slowly. Perhaps he’ll improve over the season? But, will any of the others?

    I don’t think even with being the only club utilising the “returning rider” rule for the “not been away” Ablitt, Scunthorpe lack enough riders who will improve their averages to ever be more than a bottom two team. I know we all have to be thankful for teams that survive but even the loyal Scorpion supporters must be frustrated at their team performances. As, clearly, is their manager if his comments at Redcar last year are anything to go by.

    I don’t know enough about the insurance side but my understanding is that any ACU licenced rider needs start permission from the ACU for any event abroad. That would then suggest to me that they are covered by the existing personal accident cover available to all disciplines. Previously, ACU licensed speedway riders had to arrange their own cover

    That’s been the rule for many years, though I don’t know if it still stands. But who does it negatively impact? Workington will have one now and Oxford would get one straight away when Jamie Courtney moved his licence from Berwick. Who else, other than Northampton and perhaps Ipswich is there?

    I’ve seen a couple of references to the cartel. Who are they?
  6. Wee Eck
    If the ACU insurance is now the same for speedway as all other disciplines then yes, they’ll be covered. Under the previous arrangements, they weren’t.

    Must be Robert. Simon is too tall to fit

    Clarification issued. Has Ben misunderstood? https://www.scbgb.co.uk/news.php?extend.242.1

    “So we’re not actually insured to a certain extent” has to also mean that, to a certain extent, they are insured. Maybe a change of insurer or the level of cover, or who pays for what, but seems wrong to say they’re not insured

    If he’s back in again that surely has to be the end of any chance of a comeback. Ever

    I thought it might be an incentive to write the long awaited sequel? And "At least we can't finish 10th" sounds like a great title :)

    No. Smart TV remembers sites

    There was a post on Facebook a couple of days ago explaining that logging in to BSN through the web browser on a smart tv no longer works and you have to use a laptop, tablet, iPhone or stick to log in. For some, that will be a complication too far, especially as many clubs’ streams can still be accessed through the web browser.

    Where’s @king Jamie when you need him?
  15. Wee Eck
    Surely Abblit is safe. It would be a shame that the only rider tempted back into the sport by reducing his average (not that he’d actually been away) gets dumped at the first opportunity. That sounds like something a consistent winning team would do
