On Kings Lynn website now.Lewis has left the dark side to remain a Witch.

Welcome to the light Lewis - time to make the dark side a thing of the past! wink

i hope that turns out to be the case - looking forward to Lewis being a Witch.

Ty Proctor?

where has this been confirmed Lewy?It would also mean that someone like Proctor or Poole didnt need a top 4 finish after all as they are above 5 already. Likewise Manzares.

youre right its not........its brain science! wink

if he is to be classed as a 'new' rider why a 5 rather than a 7?You are certainly not the only one touted 5 for a new Aussie. Either people are forgetting last years mess or are confident it has been legitimately changed back Surely those in charge wouldnt risk trying to pull the wool over the eyes of UKVI again - would they...

Think he would come in on his last PL figure so 4.something

full results on updates site for this one.Proctor got the luck when needed. Frank Smart on his way to qualifying for a visa in WA right now ! wink

Cheers

Is it this weekend that the team announcement is expected?

All rumour and supposition. Could yet prove to be a complete red herring!

Any riders from the tier 1 list not in a team line up became available for selection in tier 2 - a change from previous seasons. Thought you'd know that ....

Since when did that make any difference in Speedway! It was one point that was changed though in the winter - a rider not selected becomes available in either tier

why? The second he is dropped as a tier1 rider he becomes available as a tier 2. Another switch and both in....

Sarjeant wouldnt be an option for Lynn - signed for the Witches as well...

you havent factored ib the Brit reductions.....

to be this years rye house...

Seems the Kings Lynn switch to Thursday is being touted as true and Lewis likely to need to switch PL clubs.... IF so then do we go for a like for like or consider a double change?? Could recall Cam and bring back Ash a cancel the Paco deal.... Would we be that ruthless??

Good positive start for the new chairman.......

With doubts over race nights, stadiums, attracting riders etc this thread next year could have the same team in both answers!

thats whats been inferred but no definite information....

If Barry the Cats thread (December fun and games - EL section) turns out to be right and is as hinted then his first job could be helping to find a new heat leader......
