I reckon you can hear one without farting.

Not that I’ve seen anywhere.

They are, but probably not until May based on last year’s coverage. It was only 10 meetings plus the playoffs.

I’m sure Glasgow would host one, if we could arrange it. We’ve hosted a match against Poland too, and they’ve been well attended. No FIM event up here again this year, so it would be our best opportunity of a high-exposure (for speedway) event.

It would be either 6.00 or 8.50, based on his Polish average. As he last raced in the Premiership in 2017 and the Championship in 2011, I think the converted Polish averages would take priority over his old British averages. i realise this was an utterly pointless response!

There are plans for a bus, and I know of a number who are planning to be there.

Cook will be great as long as he's there. Hopefully being closer to home will help, and he can put some of the issues of the recent past behind him. I wouldn't trust Batch full stop. His antics at the pairs showed it all, for me.

Andrew Rowe would be 5.80, all in. The best option if they're not signing Claus.

Pretty sure you are correct.

Not a great one though. He’s always been much better as a guest for some reason.

I like the cartoon tiger, but not so much this race suit. Can't beat 2021 for me.

I wouldn't bother anyway. Very disappointing for Glasgow in 2021, and Berwick in 2022.

How soon are we getting this last rider announced? It feels like a mirage.

Bradley Wilson-Dean’s last Championship average is 6.00 from 2018. However, his 2019 Premiership average of 5.47 converts to 8.205, hence why it would be 8.21.

I was assuming the clock would be on the track, facing the fans. But nevertheless, stopwatches have been around for a while, so you’d think someone on every team would already keep track once the two minute signal is activated.

I can't see Claus being interested in signing for Plymouth.

Lighten up, we don’t want the atmosphere on here to be as heavy as the Plymouth track.

Having a racetrack where people can pass “easily” doesn’t mean there’s no home advantage. People say the same about Ashfield in the Championship. You can have a very raceable track and still have a good home advantage, the tricks are just less obvious.

I was surprised he wasn’t fired on the spot for that. The only thing worse than a narcissistic egomaniac is one that’s also wrong.

Old news now, but it will be at Ashfield on Sunday 2 June, 2pm.

We didn’t have dispensation. We followed the rules. The rules will say Dan’s on an average of about 12, or more. By all means sign him though!

Quite possibly, though I'd still say Workington is a better fit, if they are both interested and can agree terms.

It’s an option, but not a lot of incentive for riders to sign on that basis, given supply and demand.

It does seem to bother you. Weird thing to push you over the edge though.

That's a little bit dramatic. I don't have a problem with it personally. It's a sensible decision and it's hardly going to turn the competitive order of the NDL on its head. If Max didn't have an NDL ride, it would really undermine the point of the league. This is one of the better accommodations the authorities have made, for me.
