    Riders will be self employed and few if any would have set up limited companies. Most speedway accounts are described as "unaudited and filleted" in accordance with the appropriate company regulations. As such they are a simple balance sheet from which liquidity and profitability can be deduced, though the extent of sponsorship isn't revealed.

    There seems a reticence to run the BSN semis. Both Poole and Oxford had a blank date on Wednesday which seemed a heaven sent opportunity to run a leg but it didn't happen. Similarly Glasgow and Redcar were both free in May and didn't utilise it - would have to have been at Redcar as Glasgow had the SGP2 meeting the next day.

    Is the answer to swap Knudsen who doesn't do Wednesdays for Bowes who isn't available Saturdays!

    WANTED - A BRAVE PROMOTER: Needed to stand up to this sort of thing and sack or threaten to sack a rider missing a teams fixture in this manner. The downside is that you're going to need a guest to replace the sacked guy!

    May be you don't sign a Dane when you've got a Wednesday racenight, nor a rider who has a contract with a Danish team.

    While I don't disagree that riders are under more pressure at Glasgow, his problems stem from his big crash and he would have suffered the same loss of form loss of confidence downward spiral whatever Championship team he signed for.

    My highlights from sixty years ago but what do you remember? https://classicspeedwaymemories.webador.co.uk/june-2025/the-bls-first-season-june-1965

    Next month a look at both meetings run in Belfast.

    Spires can't step down, can they? It's game over if the Premiership falls below six.

    Anyone make it to Ashington in 1972, a poor year for open licence venues as Motherwell was even worse. Here's what I've cobbled together from contemporary reports. Stand to be corrected by any eye witnesses accounts of these meetings. https://classicspeedwaymemories.webador.co.uk/june-2025/terrible-twos-ashington-1972

    Anyone remember Briggo getting surprised by Eamonn Andrews about 50 years ago. Seems to remember they were reluctant to let riders speak in case they swore but happily had a nurse who tended him after his finger injury say her piece

    https://classicspeedwaymemories.webador.co.uk/june-2025/the-last-rider-promoter Trevor brought speedway back to Glasgow and Wembley. What are your memories of this colourful guy?
