  1. Don't reckon your man-crush Basso would get out of your bed for £400 either.
  2. Lambert is hugely more experienced - he’s 34 and has been riding since 2005. His first full season for KL was 2008. Rowe was 6 then.
  3. Krosno have a rearranged Round 10 home match on Thursday, against Częstochowa.
  4. A very handy result for the Bates franchises to keep them both fully involved in the play-off picture.
  5. As of last night, it seems that Peatboghorror hadn't told Ipswich they were using Hagon. After KL's failure to notify the Witches of their line-up for the #Bustergate postponement, is this a sign that the Deadbeets and P'boro are morphing into one ....
  6. Never heard of that. I don't take a lot of notice of the Ekstraliga. It must be that the BSPA/L's mysterious Grading List doesn't align with whatever criteria the Ekstraliga uses.
  7. According to Brady, he left KL financially healthy. Chapman has said he won't put money in because what he's got left is his pension.
  8. Why do you think 7? I don't know if there's any precedent? The SCB Regulations are splendidly vague: "Assessed rider gradings are calculated as follows: - Riders new to Premiership League racing are categorised as follows: - a) a rider riding in a professional league in the previous or current season will be assessed on a Grading List. Based upon results obtained in all other professional Speedway leagues and given an Assessed MA accordingly."
  9. The only bright spot on Eurosport is Nicholls, who is excellent. Anyone who hasn't tried it, watch BSN - much better coverage than Eurosport has ever provided.
  10. Or a rider such as King who reckoned he could up his game, but whose League form is a point lower than last year.
  11. Where did it say 3.47? That would be his 2022 Championship Green Sheet divided by 1.5. I'm guessing if a Prem team signed him now, it would be his current Championship Green Sheet divided by 1.5, which is 3.67.
  12. Not sure what point you're trying to make. Must be 95-99% for riders too, and mechanics?
  13. Confirmed on BV Facebook page that SLambert is the guest, but no updates on BV or BSPA websites.
  14. I think he was annoyed that Hume got in his way, particularly in the first lap (Hume never looked around), so wanted to prove his point on the final bends.
  15. When I wrote to the SCB about the “BusterGate” postponement, Vatcher confirmed: although the press release said both Norfolk Arena Ltd and King’s Lynn Speedway were exonerated of an improper conduct … Norfolk Arena Ltd IS King’s Lynn Speedway.
  16. That’s harsh on Rew. He’s a better rider, with more track craft, than Hume.
  17. And Riss is guesting for Peatboghorror LOL!
  18. It worked for Wolves - they redeclared with Nicholls for 1 day …
  19. Rew actually 3.38 after 6 matches, but Regs don't allow GS lower than 4.00 for non-Brits.
  20. Height of Summer, school holidays, surely the best time to try to attract extra through the gate for local derbies ...
  21. Swap King with Klindt? Both rather stale, getting grief from home fans, and needing a new outlook ... PS: New Green Sheets for Sayfutdinov (9.40) and Rew (4.00) from 12 June.
  22. I'm sure the Witches would be delighted if Thompson could defeat Kemp, let alone any of the other Lions.
