Ok thanks for the reply. Just thought I should ask. What about the 2nd part of the question - are there restrictions on the days that speedway can be held in the new stadium once the Aces start to play catch-up? I thought I'd read something along those lines somewhere....?!

Steady on CSC, Speedibee will not like posts or opinions like that - especially 14 pages in......

Only when he was a rider asking for sponsorship...............!!

Based on this year's proposals for team building, for 2017 there is likely to be a heat leader's list; a 2nd string list and an EDR list that all (or most by majority) promoters will agree to. Maybe they will be 'graded'?

Not sure who you think I am, but clearly you've got it wrong?! Why does that not surprise me? I am well aware of some of the 'bit' that you have done and am equally glad that others have assumed the mantel much more successfully - but that's only an opinion too!! Don't go there Starman - leave him in blissful ignorance. He seems comfortable there!

I came on the thread to see if there was any truth in the title claim that Woffy is returning to the EL?! It appears there isn't. No need to quote my post 3 times - I thought you weren't interested in my opinion?!

Its in the MF interview in the B'mth Echo today and is already on facebook. 2 clubs have approached in the past week to move their home fixtures - presumably BV and Leicester - Not sure if MF is going to agree with the Leicester postponement, even though Poole will be without Kurtz and Andersen, who are both due to be at Kings Lynn for the WC qualifier (just to keep it relevant to Kings Lynn)!!

Excellent performance by the Robins. So pleased for Rosco who had taken an unfair amount of stick!!

Hee hee, had to chuckle about the 'children's entertainers' suggestion for Baz and Brock!! ;-) Mrs Baz and Mrs Brock would be chuckling too!! Love it. Many more fans used to travel away and stay overnight when there were things such as Northern/Southern tours - great days - often staying in the same hostelry as the riders, although that wasn't always a good thing...........!! nudge nudge, wink wink, say no more. :-)

Someone on another thread asked a somewhat frivolous question - but I'll ask it seriously on the basis that nobody knows how long its going to be that the new track remains unfit!! Could BV temporarily move back into the old stadium as a last resort, to complete some of their outstanding home meetings? Even when the new stadium is 100%, and BV start playing catch-up, isn't there some sort of restriction on when speedway can take place??

I don't particularly like to see any rider bad-mouthed whether he's a favourite or not!! Especially on a thread that appears to have no factual basis! Just expressing my opinion. At least I appear to be important somewhere - unlike some others.

Will that be before or after the Aussie GP???

Repaired in just a few evenings, but its left a bump rather than a hole.

So, is Woffy making an EL return? Nothing relevant to this subject in the SS, so this thread can be closed then!! Mods!!

A bit sneaky by the Stars offering to fit this one in before NKI quits!! I'm surprised MF agreed to it quite honestly. ;-)

Give me some examples of other member associations -sporting or otherwise - that give that sort of detail in a public document!! Usually when a vote is taken at an AGM it is minuted as per the number of fors and againsts - not the names of who voted for what. The AGM minutes go to the members of that association ie the promoters, together with a summary of relevant points which the SS usually do a good job in making public. Even if every decision was made 'transparant' (and I'm not necessarily against that!) - what benefit would it create other than provide extra fodder for those that gorge themselves on it on this forum and social media platforms?! amongst others

Maybe found a couple of skeletons???!! ;-)

Not sure the Poole line-up is correct - even with the changes others have suggested. Ellis doesn't complete his 2nd away meeting til Friday 22nd and his new average is not effective til 7 days later according to the rules.

What on earth are you going on about? Have you forgotten your medication or got up so quickly that your head is spinning? Where/when have I 'slagged off the rest of the EL'?? That's your constant domain!! I was responding to Gavan's assertion that big scoring margins in the EL - Poole or elsewhere - make it a poor league and used a couple of examples from the PL/NL to illustrate that there are big scores everywhere. It happens FFS.

Did you miss the 'wink' again old boy, or are you not familiar with emoticons? I see you still can't keep away from the EL threads despite your loathing of the product!!

I hope not PR. Sky have already switched the May fixture from 25th to 23rd May. The meeting sponsor would not be happy!!! Me!! ;-) :-(

I seem to recall Poole haven't been too bad on a soaking wet Brandon track before. ;-)

So I guess the Birmingham/Cradley meeting last night was disappointing for all the fans in attendance too?! 55-35 a shocking reflection on NL speedway!! Newcastle and Peterborough in your favoured PL too - I bet the Diamonds and Panthers fans - and speedway fans in general - are in absolute despair over their results!! (Ps Holder's performances are a deliberate ploy to get him a spell at reserve - nothing to do with him trying to team-ride his partner and being caught in the process. Not for the first time and won't be the last!) Incidentally I hear the Barcelona fans were streaming out of the stadium well before the end of the 8-0 drubbing!!

I'm surprised that SS made no mention of the public apology over the tannoy about the lack of watering. It was stated that the water pressure across the whole of central Poole had dropped earlier in the day and Poole were not allowed to fill or use their bowser!!! Even the hoses weren't producing enough water. The track was slick and whatever holes, bumps, ruts there were - they were in the same places as 4 weeks ago

Mark Loram!!
