8%, has been for some years
-
But Tai qualifies under the old rule that has been in the rulebook for several years, so gets his 8% reduction come what may.

2026 Premiership is Go! - At least 5 teams
arnieg replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The league is a single competition so it makes no sense at all and is a positively stupid idea. [How for example do averages work with different team formats]. What might be workable [the Danes already do it] is different formats for the play-offs. However what would be an excellent idea would be for different formats for the KO Cup and the 'mystery' new competition. -
Final heat of the night track records

11 October 2022 - Ritchie Worrall ht 15 at Plymouth .. but it was almost certainly a timekeeper error! -
In 1993 ( but Mick Bacon was an earlier vintage)

We know Oxford are in as their season ticket includes 5 Chargers fixtures.

Absolutely. At the very least they should have announced the intention to set up a commission to look at the full range of options for 2027. -
It's the former. The rule is already in the rule book, it's just that its scope has been expanded.
-
I have a degree in Maths and legal training. One tells me it's 8, the other 7.99. I think we should leave if to the BSPL, they are clearly wiser than us. 🙃
-
And the answer is 7.995 So 8.00 Or 7.99 (using the Kerr precedent). I'm glad we got that clear.
-
Mathematical convention is you only round at the last stage so 7.995 becomes 8.00 rather than the reduction being rounded up.
-
That would be wrong for two reasons: 1] mathematical convention 2] precedent Lewis Kerr went from 8.60 at the end of 2023 to 8.39 at the start of 2024. But this is all irrelevant if the rule is 'one rider over 8', as 8.00 is not over 8.

I went to a Premiership rugby match and within a year BOTH teams had gone bust.

Dean Barker? Cos if it's Ben that would give an even weaker number six than Kemp.

With the loss of Long Eaton.........

If we are looking at tracks with ponds how about California? That has one on the second bend.
