Isn't there a chance that the 7 point average might still be reduced to 5.00 at the meeting the BSPA have with UKBA in January?? Its all quite nicely explained in Speedway Star!!

A typical 'blue-tint' Ippo response about an 'away' rider!! Any Barker provocation by any chance?? But then why would you want to know?

Presumably his visa application will need a new club 'sponsor' unless the BSPA authorise it?! If his average is assessed at 7.00 for a PL club - what if an EL club took a risk with him, what would the average be then?? 4.20 ? (7 x 0.6)? Or for example would it be like Milik at Poole this year on 4.00, or even lower?

Thanks Neil. How about another? With a rider like Jack Holder (now not a Somerset rider due to assessed 7 points) - what average would he be on if he were to sign for an EL club??

That's the reason most riders are in their respective teams!!!!

If that's a new rule that you can only comment on things if you were there, then I am really looking forward to seeing many 'Gavan-free' Poole threads in the future!!

You clearly don't know North any more than you know Barker. You have no more idea of what was in North's mind than I do. Its just your opinion as it is mine!!

He can't be all bad then?! Tsk tsk Barker and Aussies - a terrible mixture!!! Hope Berwick haven't got any Aussies?...........Oh hang on. Oh dear!!!

maybe in some meetings - definitely not all!!!

North's signing is as a direct result of his guest appearances towards the end of this season - plus its like a 'spiritual homecoming' for him as his mother comes from Poole! As there is still the possibility that Poole could have both Holder and Ward in the team, then that would almost certainly make North the 3rd heat leader!! However, if MF goes with Maciej (7.50) or another 7+ rider then that gives Poole a few more options. As Matt/Middlo have stated - they have options for all possibilities and will probably now wait until Darcy's hearing (and hopefully the result?!) on January 8th.

I know this has been discussed elsewhere, but I haven't seen it 'officially' anywhere - Can somebody please clarify/confirm the EL/PL conversion rates for those riders allowed to double-up/down in 2015?! Has there been a change?

More good news to come with a new 2-year sponsorship deal in the offing (as reported in the Nationals!!)

Could still be Ward yet??!!

Rosco knows Matt's number - in case there are any more of the 'dark side's' assets he might want?!!!!

Poole confirm Holder 8.75 and North 6.57.

All sorted now though - signed for Poole so he can be crossed off Leicester's list!!

Well at least you can put the Holder rumour to bed now!!!!!!!

Thank you Santa - Happy Chrismas from the North pole!!

Bjarne Pedersen??

Same as Morris!! PS. I think Santa Claus is due to make a big Christmas present delivery in Poole very soon!!

If that proves to be the case then the penalty (as in previous similar cases) is the deduction of the 4 points he scored!! What a game changer!!

As it should be. Isn't that the same as Piotr finally came in on?!

Wolves have announced Musielak as 6.50!!

Swindon have the answer amongst their own assets without having to 'beg, borrow or steal' others!

No, he wasn't!! His issues re his 'renewal' are to do with him being virtually unemployed in the UK apart from the 28 day facility to cover for Ward's injury.
