  1. No. He's a bit more than that. He owns the club!
  2. I expected Oxford to be headed up by Musielak, Tungate, Janowski. But it's now sounding like Birmingham are going to get Musielak. As others have said, Birmingham have also been talking to Thorssell and Zagar. I'm led to believe Thorssell is very promising, although I'm sceptical about Zagar, even though I'm told they're still talking. But Musielak and Thorssell would be a decent top two for Birmingham to build around, and all 3 would be amazing. I'm now more wondering about Oxford. If they have Tungate and Janowski, they need another head leader, and I don't see where that will come from if not Musielak.
  3. He seemed to think Brennan and Cook were in some way his assets, and he had first call on their services for 2025, and is upset that their actual parent clubs have arranged loan deals elsewhere. Think this is the book he was going by...
  4. No, like I say, I wouldn't gamble. I only bet on certainties. At the time I shared the info, Rew was set to be in the Ipswich team and Danny King was needing to move. But until the AGM is finalised, things can change. Clearly something changed for Rew and Ipswich, handing Danny King a reprieve.
  5. You're misreading his post. He's suggesting the BV No.4 of either Zach Cook/Keynan Rew being a match for Adam Ellis.
  6. Gambling is a mug's game. Betting is OK if you're betting on a certainty. I wouldn't gamble on Ipswich winning the 2025 Premiership title, but I'd bet on the Earth not being flat, and on Kyle Howarth having signed for Leicester.
  7. I expect you to eat every day. Regardless of whether you go to speedway or not. I know I eat every day. I don't only eat on days when I'm at a speedway meeting.
  8. They're holding a social evening on 29 November. It wouldn't really make sense to announce the team before then.
  9. I guess whether you want to spend money on the admission fee and the travel, comes down to how much you enjoy the sport, versus how much you just want to support a winning team. But I have to wonder why supporting King's Lynn requires you to eat £15 of extra food in a week.
  10. So it's Adam Ellis who is heading off to Birmingham?
  11. Wrong. Guarantees aren't uncommon. Some of the figures people make up and claim that No.1's get guaranteed are nonsense, but guarantees often happen at all levels. A youngster stepping in at reserve may even ask to be guaranteed 3 points.
  12. You only get income from the home meeting, but have to pay riders home and away. So the 500 people have to pay for an average of 100 points.
  13. No. £24 admission is £20 + VAT. So a 500 crowd at £20 is £10k. On average there are 100 points in a meeting, so just £100 per point would wipe out that £10k, without even taking into account the riders' travel expenses and flights and tyres. Then there's signing on fees, stadium rent, insurance, medical cover, meeting fees, referee fee, track preparation, other staff costs, utilities, etc etc. You wouldn't get far on the gate money of 500 people
  14. We've known for ages that Rowe is at Sheffield.
  15. Remember, it's Person.... woman.......man.....camera......TV
