Why?

So the Plymouth v Pirates BSN meeting now rearranged for 25th April, with the Cup match (originally on that date) going to May 9th!!

..as with most things!!

The incident continues to make the national tabloid sports pages today with accusations of 'diving'!

The Poole Stadium premises licence application is in today's Echo Public Notices pages. The application for 'Live Music Outdoors' is for upto a maximum of 3 events per year on 'Saturdays only'! (The first of which is Sat 24th June 2023) - Recorded music outdoors is 11.00 am to either 22.30 or 23.00 Mondays to Sundays. - Exhibition Films outdoors is daily 11.00am to 02.30 am. - Representations are open til 1st May 2023. Maybe one could request to the BCP Licensing Team that none of the above should be considered on Wednesdays for the eight calendar months from March to October inc. in order not to affect the speedway? OR maybe its best for Pirate fans to leave well alone in case it could lead to an unacceptable rental increase?!

Meeting Off. Should have made that decision earlier

...because 'the family friendly sport' message has worked so so effectively over the years?!

Probably a 'knock-off', purchased abroad?! Discovered it was a 'con' from 'Crete'!

Although Oxford are switching the riding order with Scotty into the 'easier' number 3 race jacket. Maybe he isn't 100% fit?

Harris rode as a guest for Becker not Nicholls. The Wolves website explains.

I will say what I said on this thread - that I hope all the testing goes well.

That's a Challenge match not an official fixture. In any case its reasonable to assume that being in the South/South West on Friday the testers may well be working their way northwards, rather than zigzagging across the UK.

I think he found him on Sunday!!!

It's a matter of fact that random testing takes place every season. That's why I mentioned Poole on Friday. Plymouth may have been selected this evening before it was called off - who knows? Oxford is the next scheduled meeting!! Jeez.

I don't think it's funny at all. As I said, there were random tests at Poole on Friday. Bearing in mind last season it's not beyond the realms of possibility that there will be testing done on Wednesday. I've already said it should be a well matched meeting with both teams built in similar ways.

He's in the Oxford line-up tomorrow!!

Which replacement riders were used illegally over points limit?

To be fair I have found a couple of tiddlywinks under a carpet!!

Whatever the rights or wrongs, speedway has made the National Tabloid Sports pages every day since Friday.

What? what have I put that is incorrect? They were at Poole on Friday.

Its the declared GSAs list that counts!!!

BSPA redeclared GSAs as of yesterday (Issue 4) shows Becker back in the 1-7.

The official green sheet declarations Issue 4 (10.4.23) does not have Summers listed. It is as I stated earlier.

The only change in the Premiership Rider declarations as of yesterday is Wolves reverting back to include Becker. All other 1-7s are the same.

Random checks and tests! They can happen at any track at any time.
