Ellis Perks won all 3 leagues in the same season (2019)

Are you sure? Adam is obviously not only declared in a British development league team and he is not replacing the home teams #1. Does it work because of the Play Offs?

BSN should be completed by the end of June (early season competition). KOC should be completed by the end of August (top league KOC completed in July) If that was to be followed there would be loads of time to complete other fixtures.

Berwick would have raced against Workington on June 28th. Unfortunately Workington were suspended on June 27th (the day before the meeting).

Don't bother with Steve. He told me years ago that there are 5 Sundays in a 28 day period when I questioned why Newcastle had a facility when Berwick were at Newcastle.

Thanks. Was getting the U21's and sprint race muddled up. Thanks. Confused myself with the sprint race and U21's.

Is there not a sprint race in Torun? This slightly adds interest to a round. I must have got mixed up because if there was then Robert could get 24 points from the round.

Possibly the case. It's the same with Leicester dropping Drew Kemp for Cookie. Leicester team only fitted into the averages at the start of the season with Drew's 25% reduction from last season (from being a fast track rider). He was then replaced on his full average (which the Leicester team would be illegal at the start of the season). This therefore isn't helping fast track riders.

Not really Leicester's fault the meeting at Kings Lynn was cancelled various times. They also had to re-arrange other meetings to help with fixtures. Sheffield have also got the last home meeting so it looks like a compromise to me (Sheffield had the chance at Kings Lynn to confirm top spot). Sure Ipswich would have preferred Sheffield as it would have given Emil an extra week. Sporting integrity probably goes out the window when the team that finishes top doesn't win the league. Sporting integrity goes out the window when the 8th qualifier wins the British grand prix. Sporting integrity goes out the window when a world champion doesn't get to defend his title.

Seen yesterday that Emil was looking to test today or tomorrow to see if he could race on Sunday. Wonder if he was on track today? Torun putting no pressure on him to race.

Just reading what Simon Stead said on the Sheffield website about the Birmingham meeting. “I just thought the lads all stepped up really well together and they all felt a lot happier with the track too. “Graham (Trollope - Track Curator) and his team have spent a lot of time lately trying to turn it back around and I thought it rode superbly on Thursday and long may it continue.” That says to me that the track was different last Thursday compared to the previous week or am I reading it wrong?

Not sure how it worked out that Magic went out? All 4 riders equal on 1st, 2nd, 3rd and 4th. In the head to head section Magic and Robert should have went through (beat 2 other riders). If you then use rankings it would be Bewley who goes out against Vaculik or if you still use head to head then Vaculik would go out against Bewley. Glad I'm on holiday and didn't bother going.😀

Just as ridiculous is the fact this will be Berwick's 12th home meeting of the season. If my maths is correct and it is Graham Hunter tonight then 3 referee's will have done 7 of those meetings.

Along with Freddie. Another guest required.

Freddie seems to be missing his first meeting next Monday? He is not listed in the Birmingham team on the Ipswich website anyway.
