The chairman says that progress is being made, both at Belle Vue and Leicester.

Possibly so, I would have preferred one league but you are in the competition that you are in and it is meant to be a sport, not a circus act.

Could you guarantee a full one though?

It certainly would but it wouldn't be in the spirit of competition. If fans are happy for their club to be nothing more than a side show then fair enough.

The 'costs' shouldn't be significantly different, change the number seven for a more experienced rider (remember that the Premiership ave is to be reduced to 42) and that's it. They don't have the option, all clubs have agreed to commit to the new set-up.

It's two from the same club.

I wouldn't say 'mediocre' he was much in demand.

I didn't say it did.

I think that'll happen, the way some clubs are struggling.

Of course there's 'little difference' that's why they have a promotion/relegation play-off at the end of the season and the 50 point team building level will be reduced to 42 after the first averages.

And?

There is a GP forum.

Isn't this a bit pointless, they've gone for Robert and I'd be very surprised if they change that.

Yes.

I remember Eric Boothroyd saying that Alan Hunt (who he rode with at one time) was his favourite rider. Briggo once said the same about Crutcher, he was tipped to be a World Champion but didn't seem to ride for long. I'm sure many of us saw the other names you featured.

Well he's certainly got an attractive side to promote, it'd be worth going just to watch Garrity and Barker.

Garrity already has, at Redcar.

It did.

Does that include his dad?

I think it's more likely that he took his ball home after the Bears dropped him a few years ago, similarly with Monarchs.

I'm not sure there are any at the moment, the old two year limit on doubling up has been scrapped to increase rider availability. Priority is given to the parent club or the first signed club, in the event of a fixture clash. Trebling up riders usually prioritise the upper league.

Imagine the heat 15s with Garrity and Barker! Better get the fence re-enforced!

That looks like a team that means business.

Read it.

I might be wrong but I thought the JAWA competition division had become separate from the road bikes.
