Yet they still manage to attract the usual suspects................................................!! ;-)

More an 'option' than a 'rule' in 2016 for those clubs that wish to use it immediately!!

Probably couldn't afford the loan fee??!!! :-)

You can get medication for that!!! Apparantly the Danish fixes are best!!

Great to see Scotty Nicholls back in the Team GB squad after talks with Rosco!!!

Sky are getting in early with KL - probably while NKI has agreed to ride until he quits to concentrate on his other priorities?! Sky have 5 sports channels plus F1, and no Champions League footie now so are not restricting themselves to Mondays for Speedway!!

Oooh Wednesday night speedway on Sky!!!? ;-)

Its in the Lakeside press release on their website. It would seem that the 'squad' rule wasn't included in the 2016 rules previously submitted to SCB for ratification. However clubs are aware of what has been agreed at last Tuesday's BSPA meeting and are allowed to utilise it for 2016 prior to it becoming (and possibly being tweaked?) for the 2017 season?!

Great to see Bjarne is still doing the Ben Fund meeting!!

Matt Ford's original proposal was for the No.8 to be an 'untried foreign rider' - in order to unearth some new talent for the future. What seems to have been agreed is that the rider needn't be 'foreign' and mustn't have ridden EL previously - which opens up all sorts of additional options,(certain Aussies spring immediately to mind) including not to have one at all!!!!

As I've said before, it'll be Wednesday/Thursday plus whatever day Sky want (maybe Mondays) for televised meetings!!!

Sorry, which is your team?

'E.T. - Phone home'!!!

....or winding down?? ;-)

.....and Lawson and Kennett 'job-sharing'??!

Yes, most of the back sports page and a 2-page spread inside!! As everyone knows, he's a winner....! And there's even a seperate article about Team GB boss Rosco. Great speedway coverage from the local paper!!

Maybe so in 2014 but sorted out for last season.

Who is Statman? My head is spinning!!

Its all in the timing!! The Echo interview will be exclusive when its published tonight/tomorrow and then doubtless will be shared with the SS for Thursday publication!! Don't forget the SS Chief Reporter and Speedwaygp.com reporter is Poole-based!! Ps. Not sure why you are bothered RMC - Didn't think you had any time for anything EL-related??!

Revolutuon Speedway!!!!!

Not too much about Poole in the past 10 days so here goes:- MF is not looking to utilise the Number 8 option to start with although there are 2 or 3 young foreign riders that he wants to watch as to their early season form! Poole P&P day on Monday 14th March starting at 1pm, with admission to invited audience (Media, Sponsors, Season Ticket holders) from 1230pm - And then open to the public from 3pm when track practice should start.​ Exclusive interview in Wednesday's Bournemouth Echo with Matt Ford, discussing his future and what his hopes are for the Pirates after he's stepped away - whenever that may be?!!! I imagine it will also be in this week's Speedy Star?! Should provide a few hundred pages on here for starters.................................................!!

So Eddie Kennett and Richard Lawson to share their position due to too many EL/PL fixture clashes early season??!! Have I missed that rule somewhere?

New to EL now apparantly??!!! (According to MF!)

According to some national sports pages today, Kings Lynn could well be missing Troy Batchelor for some of the early season meetings after his operation on his broken arm!!!

Thought Lakeside signed Jonsson to cover any 2-5 absentees!!???
