We'll be getting regular updates from Darcy (and Lizzie) in the Poole Matchday Programme throughout this coming season. The Spinal Rehab unit in Australia is already reporting amazing progress with Darcy!

Can't understand all this bickering over prices. Good luck to Belle Vue in the new stadium. Just another question - do the new £20/£23 admission prices include a programme? PS. The 'proposal' to redevelop Poole Stadium is still on the table for consideration!!!!!

The contract to buy and the price has been agreed 2 years ago!! MF says in the Star that sometimes its to a club's advantage for a rider to remain on another club's asset list. Apparantly in the PL, clubs are required to have a certain level of value - including the value of assets. I'm not sure what it means but that's what it says!!

Doyley would be on very, very dodgy ground if he pi$$ed off Debbie at Somerset!!!! :wink:

Power to Debbie Hancock!!!!!

Neither is an Elite League meeting!! Morris is a member of the 10-man Wroclaw squad. Wroclaw will have to choose their 8-man team after an official practice on Thursday 17th. Its an 8-rider format over 16 heats at KL.

I would expect their respective contracts to insist they ride in 'official EL fixtures'!! Neither of these 2 fixtures are anything more than 'friendly, Challenge meetings' to blow the cobwebs away before the serious stuff starts!!!

So it would seem that Brady Kurtz remains a Somerset asset (according to Matt Ford in the SS) in order that Somerset maintain a strong value/asset base!!!??

Yes at Doyley's home from home too!!!! Debbie will be disappointed.

Debbie Hancock knows that Doyley would put a few more on the Somerset gate - but I guess she doesn't pay as well as the promoters of the KL meeting

What Jon Cook actually said was that he would be arguing for Thurs/Friday because Lakeside are a Friday track - But he would have to consider the other options if he was out voted, as he expects to be!!

If Easter were to ever become a fixed date in early April, then an April - September League season for the EL is a reality. The league and play-offs are scheduled to be completed in September already.

Hopefully so will Mrs Nicholls!!!

Well I don't think it'll be the current 8 EL clubs in the new 'streamlined' version, unless any that do drop out are replaced by a similar number of aspirational PL clubs?! Stranger things may happen..............

I'm sure it was stated somewhere (Speedway Star probably) that the BSPA would withdraw any objection to Brits competing in either the Euros or the Pairs, as long as One Sport arranged the dates well in advance and along with all the other international dates and it didn't affect any EL fixtures by riders missing!! The BSPA's original objection a few years ago was to show support to Eastbourne - the only EL Saturday track at the time!!

Now that does get the old grey matter working!!!

Crikey if that rule existed today, Eddie Kennett would never finish a race!!!!

Had heavy hail storms down here this morning AO!!

Clubs have been working towards this one/two night EL speedway for at least a couple of years (3 by 2017) in order that their racing night can be properly negotiated and giving all the appropriate notice to their respective stadium owners. Bearing in mind most (not all) stadium landlords keep all the revenue from car parking, bars and refreshments, they are not likely to turn a total blind eye to Speedway's requirements and risk the loss of speedway income and rental.

If recent comments from those now in charge are anything to go by then there will be a league in which some GP stars (and other top non-GP riders) will compete in - albeit its unsure as to how many teams will be in it and how many of those teams will also run a lower standard (non-GP riders) in a regional division of Premier League standard.

Well it is still Winter!! Might have had a better chance if the work had been allowed to start sooner!!

Can't be just England with Rosco's Welsh heritage!!!!!!! lol :-)

I think whoever is finally selected for the Team GB team will really be up for winning it on home shale!!

The site office is open this weekend 1100am to 300pm!!

Hopefully they've remembered to tweak the constitution for this year??!!!
