Not sure the GPs are any better to be honest!! Stands back and waits til January!!

Well it would certainly put paid to any rain-offs, Starry!!!

Why can't PL riders double-up???

Oh come on Starry, we'll have the BSPA listening to fans next!!!!

No there isn't (I should have put a wink at the end of the post!) - however there wasn't an England Women's Football international at Wembley a few years ago either!!! I am sure there would be loads of women keen to experience 500 ccs of throbbing power between their thighs and with no brakes!! Looking at some of the German team yesterday, they would be ready-made!!!

1. Football - no matter who is playing it - is still the 'national' sport. 2. Its played in a decent stadium. ps.Maybe we should go for Women's Speedway??

The restriction on EL riders on 6+ averages 'doubling down' is because the PL promoters were worried about affording their wages - it states as much in the SS summary this week. Similarly the EL restriction on only 2 riders above 7 points is because some (not all) promotions cannot afford more.

This the wording of the relevant rule in the 2014 regs:- 18.6.4 If a Rider has only an EL Established MA from the previous season, then a conversion is necessary; the EL MA is divided by 0.6, subject to the maximum converted MA being 12.00 As already stated we don't yet have the 2015 version to compare

Nick Morris signs for Glasgow!!!

Is anyone saying that Evans shouldn't return to football?? Let him get a lower profile, lower league or non-league place if any club will have him, without losing sponsors, patrons or fans. He can then attempt to rebuild his career if he's any good.

To be fair Tsunami, it was a very boring and long winded - and incomplete - document any way!!

Nope. A day late but all complete!!

So the Speedy Star seems to confirm the maximum 2 x 7 pointers per EL team?! I just do not understand the logic of that - as well as not understanding why it wasn't made clear in the AGM statement!!

Cheers Matt!!!

I thought the wink at the end of my post was sufficient??!!

This was reported last week when his lawyers were quoted as saying they only expected Darcy to 6-8 months, backdated to the start of his suspension!! Maybe they know something we don't?!

If he had a spray tan and admitted to being Matt's love child - he could be Darky Ford!!

Quite right Ole, 2013 was the final year of Sky Sports sponsorship of the league(s). 2014 was the first year of a 5-year agreement to televise a certain number of meetings. I'm sure its Terry Russell that has the responsibility of seeking new sponsors for the league(s).

He did!! He told him to make sure he rehydrated earlier for a rearranged afternoon meeting!

What like Tesco-Express??!!

So its the FIM General Assembly this coming weekend (22nd/23rd November)!! I wonder if there will be any official news?

PL only I presume?!

How dare you?! Poole wouldn't do that to give Lakeside any advantage - Jon Cook's not on the MC anymore!!!!

Some of them may not accept Neil Vatcher's invitation??!!

What has 'NL' got to do with anything? The fast track draft system was not limited to only NL riders, it included PL (and some EL) Brits from the start!
