Id imagine the League will ditch one of the 'joker' meetings. I cant see promoters making themselves out of pocket with an extra meeting includedin the season tickets.

Toatally agree that you cant just do the whole draw again. One of the clubs that did have a bye in the first round could step up though.

seems to be a few posts like this on various threads - it must be the Christmas spirit(s)!!

Great news - always enjoyed my visits to the showground.

The way I understand it is that Gollb did nit decline his wildcard and so was named in the official competitors listing.Once this happened the wildcard pick is over and ANY withdrawal follows the next on the list policy which is Harris. Had Gollob declined the wildcard he would never have been announced as one and a new pick would have taken place before anyone even knew about it.

Id say you can sleep safe tonight without the risk of nightmares.

not yet.

No he hasnt signed. Has had talks but no deal agreed anywhere.

I have seen it mentioned that this may be one of the changes. The top 3 in the averages have to be at 1 3 and 5 but at the teams discretion as to the positioning. Havent seen anything official though.

Have seen on a few threads about Air Fence challenge matches to open their seasons which got me thinkibg about our fence. Each year it seems to stretch round less and less - Id guess that it is 3or4 sections shorter than when first installed. Is this by design or just through lack of replacement? Does anyone know?

And there it was! 5 more seconds. The first mentioned in the 'others' montage.

Tai has had 3 seconds in the first minute during the opening pan of the attendees. Will there be more?

Perfectly feasible - until he decided to ridein Denmark.

Your predictions would take the team over 50!

I never said anything was amiss with it - just a quirk of rolling averages. But he had proved he could be at 8.50 so not quite the same as someone making a big jump. Fair play because there was the risk he would struggle back from injury. Agree that Kerr was the biggest plus because it was more unexpected.

Newcastle were only able to do that last year as a result of Richie Worralls rolling average being not much more than 5.5 at the start of the season.

Lets hope this little piece of common sense turns out to be true and also a pre cursor to lots more common sense decisions.

Wasnt being pendantic - hadnt realised he even lined up for any team. Id say that counts as riding given for example Tully being injured in practice was acceptable to obtain r/r.

News on radio this morning that Ritxhie Hawkins will be captain in 2014.

How can someone 'technically ride' - he either did or didnt! Then again 'technically' it seems Brady Kurtz is a 3 pointer.

I understand it to be for the 3 seasons AFTER establishing an average. So if first rode and obtained an average in 2011 therefore gets the reduction in 12,13 and 14.

No his full concentration is on hoodwinking British Speedway.

that actually makes more sense that many Jenga posts! lol

Danish League

thats quite funny! Kings Lynn are also going to sign Robert Lambert now but not use him. Then they will encourage him to take out a German licence (EU rules atc etc) He will do really well ,perhaps get a GP call up etc etc Then in a couple of years bring him in on a 3 - after all thats what they signed him on! Yeah that should work - after all there will have been a precedent set in Brady Kurtz.
