It should be built into the share calculations. I would also suggest that some of any money is earmarked to better funding of the international qualifiers etc

Perhaps not!

Do Hungarians need work permits?

I heard that too - in fact I was told he has tweeted it himself. As a side issue I belilieve no foreign rider should come in on a 3. What is the point of taking action to help British youngsters and then then assessing foreigners who have ridden in SWC in on a 3?

. If both the above are correct then either Adam isnt in or dont play poker with Jonny!! Personally I hope Jonny is good at poker.

Cracking line up. Will definitely be favourites. All the pressure will be on them from the start. Worky's to lose.

So Poole say yes we do want ptotected status for Newman in draft 1. Does this mean they HAVE to pick him in draft 1 or is he just protected from other picks? If its the latter they pick the 10th ranked rider in draft 1 thus getting first pick in draft 2. The fact that protection is then lost means nothing as they get first pick in draft 2. Edit Just seen BWitchers post which makes sense and stops that abuse.

So have Poole got to declare their draft 1 pick first? I thought they had last pick? I suppose it could be that another club has to attempt to pick Newman in draft 1 and so force Poole to invoke their protection in draft 1 and pick hum then.

So Poole get last pick in draft 1 and dont pick Newman but instead pick No10 on the list. They lose the protection to pick Newman but as they have the lowest ranked rider from draft 1 get first pick in draft 2. So they then get Newman anyway and end up with by far the strongest pairing. The only thing to prevent this happening is another team making a lowly pick in draft 1.

Well you know how these corporate lunches are.....!

Wont that be about only half a dozen available Saturdays during the year and thats without giving Eastbourne priority.

As he will have (assumed from the rumours) 2 rides that will be against a reserve and similar level second string his opponents would be no higher standard than last year overall.

That team would be nailed on to top the table IMO. Lets hope youre not right! wink

A solid side and will certainly be competitive Id say the key is for Rosen to step up to No1 and Rose to be able to hold his own at reserve .

Like I say dont do it myself - just a hearsay comment.

I dont do Twitter but was told a couple of days ago he had tweeted that he had agreed a PL. But where?..... I hope Leigh gets sorted out soon. The problem for him (and many others) is he is in that funny average range. It always seems to be that 6-7 type rider that juggled.

Good to hear Baldyman - a bit of banter , the odd wind up etc but all friends in the end- just as it should be.

Many PL sides will have the same problem with the shift on the ruling. It has to be right that the owning club gets priority though. Better to have him for 24 out of 28 than not at all I say.

I dont know Joe but he doesnt strike me as the sort that would see it as anything other than the light hearted comment it was intended as.

Screeny retired a year too early then!

Tesco to sponsor the tac with the double clubcard points tag line! British Gas -heat leaders. Tampon secure range - second strings.

they must have or they wouldnt have fingers either!

Its a fish nowadays!

Terry Russell is doing eenie meenie minee mo anytime now!!

I havent had the 'pleasure' of meeting any of the Worky lot. The closest Ive got is a PM from Jenga offering a date under false pretences!!
