Heat leaders graded into a list. How will that be decided?

In the main it's upto the referee that the meeting progresses at a decent pace. Having said that doing an interval after a delay is not needed and meetings should start as advertised!

Draft riders having their PL average converted will help Poole immensely even more so if they get Ellis.

They did for the old deal, dont believe they do in the latest deal.

Sky only pay clubs compensation when they have home meetings on sky. There isn't a subsidy anymore.

No qualms from me for North missing the meeting if he chooses to but to somehow getting a sick note and therefore a facility is what I don't like even more so the issue is not speedway related. Its now opens it up to be abused by any side including my own.

As SCB explained above average wise he is a number 1 as he's in the top 8 in the averages although I wouldn't have put him in AT number 1 during 2015.

I guess so. Janowski is one that's already missing next season add a couple more to that and you could make a claim that Harris would be a genuine number 1

Oi behave you! 😉

The way the league is likely to be at this stage Harris may well be a genuine number 1 next season. Our problem this season was if a heatleader scored well there was no back up from the other 2. Needed a little more top end strength and a good scoring number 2.

Trying to get a dig in then look absolutely ridiculous in the process....

Id say Coventry also get around the 2,000 figure for a majority of meetings. It will be interesting to see what crowds BV get at the new stadium, i guess they would push above Poole and Coventry average wise.

Is there any actual designs of what the stadium will look like?

Just means he hasn't signed a deal yet which is no surprise as the AGM hasn't happened yet. He'll be at Brandon next year I'm sure especially with his testimonial pencilled in for March.

Certainly looks like a few extra sides next season if Belle Vue season tickets are for 20 meetings.

Id hope we would have him in the side in 2016 especially if we can get him in as a 2nd string to start with.

Blimey I was still at school then!

Depends on how the draft will work and who is in it. We have Sarjeant as an asset so that should be good for us. If all tier 1 riders won't be in the draft then Sarj is probably the best. Will have to see how the AGM pans out next weekend

Dudek will be at the very least a 7, well he should be.

Unless he gets rides abroad.

He'd have to give up Poland then wouldn't he? How many clubs ride Sunday in the PL?

Ask any top rider especially Tai. They do not want to do GP Sat, POL Sun, GB Mon and SWE Tue. Most dont want 4 meetings in 4 days in possibly 4 different countries.

Coventry v Belle Vue. Superb racing all night, a bit of controversy and a last heat decider with a Bees win.

The way its going at the moment I'm considering cancelling my Sky sports subscription and just keeping BT sport. If BSI do a deal with BT sport then its bye bye Sky Sports.

It is on the 2016 thread. He's only stated that he has heard AJ would like to be at Brandon next year which is what I've also heard. His post wasn't at all about Lakesides predicament and as you may know there may not be a Coventry Bees side in 2017 so there was no disrespect there at all.
