Palm Toft? Don’t know where is local to him, but that’ll be a relief
-
Luke Harrison signed, it’s in the speedway star
-
Yeah he qualifies for a visa now, finished top 4 in the Victorian State championship at the weekend. The podcast was recorded before that happened
-
Triggers broom Aka Ben
-
Yeah he is making his debut in Ekstraliga 2 (Old Div 1) for Poznan in 2024

Out in the town centre today, promoting the club https://x.com/workycomets/status/1728367958307606748?s=46

Did you see my other post? The combined average doesn't count for much when his away average was 7.00, making him 19th on that particular list! Puts a lot of pressure on the rest of the team if the number 1 doesn't perform away from home.

£15 would be underselling the sport in my opinion, it's even £20 across the board to watch non-league (National League) football these days. I had a look at 2015 admission prices and they were £15 for Championship level speedway then, when if you compare to a minimum wage of £6.50ph it does seem more expensive in 2015. If you compare to 2024, minimum wage is due to be set at £11.44ph and admission £20. I know there an many other factors and many workers who are salaried don't often see large rises but it's one interesting way to look at it.

Neither will be riding in Polish senior leagues, only U24 league on a Tuesday

If you look at his 2023 home average though it overinflates this at 10.08, and away is 7.00. Probably tells alot with the home track advantage that Armadale gives
-
Based on what? Not great away from Armadale
-
It’s in the Speedway star, Lambert is the first signing
-
Listed as 3 groups of 3 on the British Speedway site - https://britishspeedway.co.uk/2024-bsn-series/ I'd imagine this is how it will stay?
-
I don't think there is enough meetings to do this anymore unfortunately, otherwise you'd be racing 3 of your 8 away league matches in a single weekend.

I agree! Was looking through his CL averages over the years and it reminds you how dominant and consistent he's been at this level. "Bad" seasons have still been 9 point averages. 2009 Workington 3.93 2010 Workington 7.47 2011 Edinburgh 8.09 2012 Edinburgh 9.99 2013 Edinburgh 10.83 2014 Edinburgh 10.41 2015 Edinburgh 10.47 2016 Peterborough 9.67 2017 Workington 10.37 2018 Glasgow 11.05 2019 Glasgow 10.71 2021 Glasgow 9.46 2022 Glasgow 8.98 2023 Edinburgh 9.08

C'est magnifique Hooky Street

It was Saturday 3pm this season if people don't know that. Personally no good for me as I play local sport at the same time. I'm sure the promotion would avoid clashes with the England matches, they aren't daft, plus it's not going to be weekly Speedway. And I don't think anyone will be missing a meeting because of the Olympics!
-
Full update here - https://workingtoncomets.com/promoters-update-for-2024/ Shame it’s going to be afternoon racing again. Maybe make progress on lighting for 2025
-
Hope so! Would certainly up his average. Redcar are revealing their whole team on the 9th December so may know either way then
-
Connor Bailey not going to be in the 2024 team then?
-
BSPL site uploaded a photo of Jason Edwards in a Sheffield racejacket at the same time of the Woffy/Holder one, guess that's tomorrow's announcement
-
They are yes, it's in their statement - https://oxfordspeedway.club/2023/11/oxford-speedway-confirm-sensational-return-to-the-premiership-as-oxford-spires-the-citys-newest-professional-sports-club/
-
Believe the 3 signings to be announced by Saturday are Woffinden, Jack Holder and Jason Edwards
-
I don't think PL would of ever been in consideration surely. It came from 1 person who put a random comment on here 4 pages back. We all know what league will have the best close racing next year with tracks like Scunny, Glasgow, Redcar and Workington
