Only one way to find out.........

Didn't Bomber ride for St Austell in the Amateur/Conference League while he was 15?

Club Facebook page promising a fair bit of news on Sunday - team building and team manager on the agenda among other stuff...

It was 42.5. Ryan came in after Luke Chessell bailed out at a late stage

There is no suggestion, other than in a random question tossed out by Taffy, that Berwick are going to demand £20, or any other figure this year. There has been no statement, on any matter, by the promotion, nor will there be before Sunday evening.

I think that question -- based, as you say on helping speedway survive -- is being asked the wrong way. Yes, a fair admission price for a night of Championship speedway might be around £16/17, as at the majority of CL tracks. But to ask everyone to pay £20 for the same meeting to help a speedway survive is quite different. The concept of a Trust, such as they have at Hearts, etc, is that concerned supporters who might feel they can afford it do pay more, in the way of a weekly/monthly subscription to the Trust, not at the turnstile.

Where is all this £20 coming from? Unlikely anywhere in current times -- BUT whatever Jamie's got planned, the way to find out is to hit the B&G on Sunday at five o'clock........

Edward Kennett would be reduced too.

Maybe we'll learn more on December 9th. Maybe Jamie will reveal why we're awaiting team news, which might be influenced by finance. Maybe more investment = bigger budget = better riders. Maybe no news is currently good news. And maybe the Cornhill Cretin (cue screams of horror at my choice of noun) will give it a rest?

Hunters would be a nod to the great past of speedway in Leicester

No problems with Heeps, Morris, BWD, etc getting their discount - nor Matty Wethers, Spud Summers, Rory Schlein - - as long as they race on ACU licences.

Maybe there will be news of incoming investment, and assistance for Jamie, at the Black & Gold? Meantime, it is clear (from tonight's words) there has to be greater support for the promotion from supporters, no?

That isn't a quote by Alex Harkess. He is quoted throughout the article, with his words in quotation marks. The last paragraph is added by the columnist, who has history in the business of putting unsaid words into articles.

I can't believe this, how can an Australian get the numbers right and Najjer can't?

What facility would you suggest for riders missing Friday-night matches at Glasgow or Edinburgh?

So you didn't pull, then?

Really bad post, friend. Aaron Summers scored 5 points from his first three races on Saturday. He pulled up in his fourth ride and was replaced by Keiran Douglas in his fifth programmed outing. Apology forthcoming?

Just thinking - it might be the only trophy either team will win this year! Making it ever so important for the next six months of bragging rights!

Aaron Summers pulled up in Heat 15 at Berwick on Saturday, couldn't come out for Heat 17.

If referee allows Klindt to get his rollers, he'll win races. Make him wait until tapes go up and he's useless. End of.

The Edinburgh match will be there. Don't know about Ippo.

Well, as I said a few posts back, paid ten from four starts at the last Armadale meeting a fortnight back isn't too shabby. Two weeks prior to that, Klindt also scored paid ten, but from six starts. None of the rest of your team got anything like Doolan's score -- Campton 6, Bach 4, Jensen 4, Proctor 2, Bickley 0.

The Edinburgh track staff did a superb job of rescuing the track before the Berwick match after heavy rain virtually all day and a 40-minute delay to let them relay the surface once the rain went off. They deserve every plaudit for their efforts, and in fact there were some pretty good races when the match got going. They didn't "let themselves get caught out" and all that happened was the Bandits were making superb starts early doors. Nowt to do with the track. As for various Worky people here suggesting Kevin Doolan is a poor choice of guest, he seemed OK in that one -- paid ten from four, I think.

Not really, the rule was introduced to prevent a team manager putting two low-earning dumplings out in Heat 15 if the match was already lost or won. The difference between paying two world-class guys for a meaningless 5-1 and one point to a reserve is considerable. Probably at least a grand. The rule was brought in for the benefit of the paying public.

Yes! Rye House did it at Berwick a few years back -- that's the one I think of, off the top of my head -- and I'm sure there are other instances. Having said that, KL would have to have a pretty spectacular collapse........................
