A ORLOV

Not sure about that as I am sure Jason Crump bought and owned his own contract. It would make sense for all riders to refuse to sign ownership contracts and just sign for a club for a specific period, the same as most self employed people do.

That has been obvious, and not news, since the end of the season, it was just when that was in question.

Which would reduce the value as nett earnings, excluding sponsorship money, would not be high, as it seems that Matt, along with most speedway promoters, needs sponsors to cover many of the costs. No or a reduced number of sponsors equates to less profit. Then with speedway having a dodgy future and very little security of continuing not many would pay a lot for it unless they wanted to cover a large tax loss. If you can find the profits made each year that would be a good start.

Tell that to an accountant and you will be laughed out of his office, riders and sponsors are not assets, therefore have no value. The riders, just like is seems that C Holder might, can just walk away and sponsors, as some have done, stop sponsoring. "without him (Ford), would anyone else be able to raise as much", the likely answer is no.

Well stop posting rubbish then

According to this yes but not sure which League they were in at the time as they have changed a few times. http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.16473.7

Doubt that he would go elsewhere but it does give him a bit of clout. Re Lampart, have no idea about his ability but if he does not perform and improve his average Rosco has more points to make a change.

Do not forget you have got all this .25% off for any rider who has been in the NL, but have no idea if the averages shown include this discount or not.

Or from CL to PL X by .6666666

Well just need every poster to report its posts.

Unless Rosco has got a good rider on a low average up his sleeve that is a bit of a concern, as that was our problem last year with one weak reserve after an injury to our first choice Mitch.

Typical the troll from reading goes quiet and the other one posts

But then it will not be fun continually proving its post wrong.

every decent poster needs to report it to the mods

How much would Poole pay him to sign ?

The troll never learns

Does he eat snails with garlic for breakfast ?

And the idiot is wrong again

Wonder if the usual idiot will tell us who it is ?

The announcement of the top riders also helps sell season tickets, normally.

I hope not but could be, with all the bs we have been fed by the owners of the stadium over many years.

Is that like many published new rules when they realise they have screwed up again, they ought to get someone who can check out and construct rules which cover all the options.

It all depends upon the wording of the rule, does it say only Brits and what does it say about those with dual nationality.

Yes, I suppose he might have ended his renting there while in Australia for the winter and then a move up to Wolverhampton, will only find out if he turns up to watch Swindon meetings when Wolves are not riding, or I see him at the pub watching any tv meetings.

He has not been for a while, he lives on the edge of Swindon where a few Swindon riders live and keep their equipment.
