Add Luke Harris to complete the Scuntfield team

Luke Harris signs to complete the Scuntfield team.

He used to nick Hot Tubs from Asda before he branched out into Mars Bars. https://www.southwalesargus.co.uk/news/23780835.newport-hot-tub-thief-jailed-shoplifting-spree/

Yep. And a difference of just 0.2 inches of rainfall between Manchester in June and Wroclaw in August.

Marginally. 2.6 inches in Manchester 2.4 inches in Wroclaw.

These days people would complain about a Wembley final. Wembley has no roof and it always rains in London. Also there's nothing to do around Wembley and it's too far from London, so you can't walk it from Buckingham Palace or Downing Street.

Cardiff is actually the wettest city in Britain, so it's a good job they have the roof. Manchester is actually quite a way down the list.

Maybe we should have these confirmed managerial signings on the "2025 confirmed signings" thread? Then the Clerks of the Course and the tea-lady? It would give us chance to start more interesting winter rumours like "My good sources say Simon Stead leaves Sheffield management job to become Kent tealady"

Wouldn't most clubs illustrate an article, revealing a team of young riders, with a photo of one of the young riders? After all, they're the important ones. Maybe the No.1 or skipper?

Which one?

The money helps too, with most clubs sticking to the agreed payscales.

Leicester will go with 2 green reserves, but they are Cooper Rushen and Ryan Ingram.

Cooper Rushen already has.

Believe what you like, but the Poole No.7 has literally signed a contract to ride until the end of June. Please go and ask him if you don't believe me.

The Poole No.7 is signing knowing full well, from the beginning, that he's only there until the end of June.

Two Spencers?

Anyone who rode NDL this year is eligible for the NDL in 2025, but a team can only use one rider who has a CL average over 4.00, so Kent couldn't track both Morley and Ablitt as both have CL averages over 4.00.

I don't see a problem. It keeps a track open. Kent fans get a local team - the Kent Eagles - to watch. Eastbourne fans get an Eagles side to support, with the knowledge that this venture's end goal is to prove themselves before making a bid to bring speedway back to Eastbourne.

Ablitt's average is 5.04. So couldn't be in a team with Morley.

I know what it is supposed to say. But what it says is that silencers have to be at least 4 years old to be used. So anything newer than 2021 can't be used.

Interesting rule there from the SCB. It says "From the 2025 season it will be compulsory for all silencers (for 500cc and 250cc) to be dated a minimum of 4 years old." So any silencer more than 4 years old is OK? But you can't use a newer one that's not 4 years old or more? Or do they mean silencers can be a Maximum of 4 years old?

But the team is Harris, Howarth, Flint, D Thompson, Boughen, Perry, Hodder.

Subsequent events have proved I was right.
