Because there are plenty of examples of clubs doing it for themselves without the necessary expertise and loosing a shedload. For example Leicester in 2011

But that's really a mis-translation. Loan riders doubling up would be more accurate description of what is going on

Allow plenty of extra time to navigate the roadworks

I have a 2019 League champions programme board (purchased from jaybea in October 2019)

But it does matter to Leicester and Plymouth as they meet on 27 July and Dan will now (correctly) move into the top 5, whereas he would have stayed at reserve had the incorrect date been used.

Let me remind you of the last such scheme (fast track development) when just such a rider guested for inexperienced Lee Derbyshire - his name Tai Woffinden!

Looks like it. One GP winner replacing another!

Financially innumerate wittering

Yes for now, although I think Bewley's next GSA (from 1 Aug) will probably put him above Ulrich

So in reality the only issue is why is the operative date for Dan Thompson's new average 28/7 on the latest greensheet issue when I think there is universal agreement it should be from 25 July?

But the rules refer to riders on the rising star list, and he is on the rising star list.

I think he remains on the rising star list until it is revised. Note: this is an opinion based on the impression I have gained, I am not in the least bit certain that this is indeed the case. I refer you to geoff100's comment

10.2.1 A Premiership or Championship Assessed League rider will establish an MA after 4 home and 4 away fixtures. Becoming effective 7 days after the last qualifying meeting. Thompson's average is therefore most definitely 6.05 today - typo on greensheets notwithstanding) However I think Thompson remains a 2* Rising star and can therefore guest for Jenkins under: 012.4 Facilities – page 113 D) Absent 6 th rider by MA – Guest. D1) Absent Rising Star – Same star rider or lower.

I've not seen that, can you cite the regulation?

Currently Dan Bewley, Dan King, Adam Ellis and Rory Schlein are the best options. (I suspect Bewley's average will not stay below Ulrich's for much longer)

New averages from 1 August based on matches up to yesterday. Think Batch would now be around 7.5 converting to 11.25

Not British, but Anton Jansson who competed in the FIM Youth Gold Trophy last weekend is a fourth generation rider. Father Jimmy Grandpa Bo (and great uncle Tommy) Great grand father Joel

With both the DSL and the Allsvenskan riding on Wednesday's that may be a bit limiting ( although Pollestad, Sola and Fredriksen might offer some interesting Norwegian options)

And even then I'd be a bit cautious.

Reading 1993 team contained three riders whose sons have all ridden speedway professionally, but only one of the sons rode for Reading.

Would that imply an Aussie with British ancestors?

Plucking someone from the terraces. What a silly idea, you could end up with someone like Tim Sugar!

Two letters more than Parkinson-Blackburn!

British Embassy?? Surely it would be the Czech Embassy unless Smetana is a British citizen.
