  1. Furthermore he rode in New Zealand in both 19/20 and 20/21.
  2. But what if the covid situation in Germany causes Landshut withdraw from the Polish League (as the other German club Wolfslake are threatening to do)? Might Riss then be available?
  3. At a guess: Most recent average - (2017 with Berwick) 6.59 divided by 1.6 to convert to PL gives 4.12 less 2.5% British rider discount is 4.02
  4. I would expect so, I imagine it will be up to promotions to agree plans for spectator safety with local public health officials. And we may end up with anomalies similar to last season where masks were compulsory at King's Lynn, required only when moving around at Plymouth and voluntary at Scunthorpe.
  5. I imagine this is an indication of how difficult it is to find riders who are willing to commit to a season of speedway in the UK, with considerable uncertainty remaining over travel restrictions etc
  6. I thought Mr Godfrey's comments about Plymouth and Kent were particularly disingenuous, short sighted and stupid. Without a third tier that works for stand-alone clubs there would have been no Kent or Plymouth available to supplement the crumbling ranks of the senior leagues. Somerset, Trelawny, Mildenhall, Rye House, Berwick, Eastbourne, Stoke, Isle of Wight and SCUNTHORPE all moved up to/ returned to the professional leagues after running as stand alone clubs in the third tier. (In addition it provided a place for Birmingham and Oxford to carry on when they went bust mid season) There are now fewer 'professional' clubs running than at any time since 1959. Next time Godfrey wants re-inforcements for his crumbling edifice where will he find them?
  7. I compiled them from the results which were on the ligue-francais website/Facebook group
  8. Yes. I think (but I'm not 100% certain) he is Stephaine's son.
  9. Jordan is 24 and Enzo moved from 250cc to 500cc in 2016 which suggests he's about 21 Also keep an eye out for Matias Tresarrieu, he's 17/18 2020 French League Averages: M Ht Pts BP TP Ave 1 Mads HANSEN Lamothe 4 25 68 1 69 11.04 2 David BELLEGO Lamothe 4 24 56 6 62 10.33 3 Mathieu TRESARRIEU La Réole ^^ 7 43 94 3 97 9.02 4 Adam ELLIS Marmande 3 18 40 0 40 8.89 5 Ondrej SMETANA La Réole ^ 7 42 85 7 92 8.76 6 Jordan DUBERNARD La Réole ^ 8 47 84 14 98 8.34 7 Chris HARRIS Morizès ^^ 8 48 92 5 97 8.08 8 Steven GORET Lamothe ^^ 8 44 78 8 86 7.82 9 Dimitri BERGÉ Marmande 3 19 37 0 37 7.79 10 Stéphane TRESARRIEU Morizès ^ 5 32 57 4 61 7.63 11 Gaétan STELLA Morizès ^ 6 35 56 7 63 7.20 12 Gabriel DUBERNARD Marmande ^^ 8 37 38 4 42 4.54 13 Julien CAYRE Marmande ^^ 8 46 44 7 51 4.43 14 Steven LABOUYRIE Morizès 5 25 21 6 27 4.32 15 Mathias TRESARRIEU Morizès ^ 4 16 14 3 17 4.25 16 Richard DE BIASI La Réole 5 13 11 2 13 4.00 17 Thomas VALLADON La Réole 5 18 15 3 18 4.00 18 Maëron HERMES Lamothe 6 25 18 3 21 3.36 19 Jérôme LESPINASSE Lamothe ^ 4 13 6 3 9 2.77 20 John BERNARD Marmande 4 16 6 2 8 2.00 21 Xavier MURATET Lamothe 6 22 8 2 10 1.82 22 Baptiste COMBLON Marmande ^ 5 19 7 1 8 1.68 23 Gaétan DURANT Morizès 3 7 2 0 2 1.14
  10. There were two FIM staged in Ukraine in 2019, one 8n 2018. 2014-17 were the seasons when no FIM events were held there.
  11. Some might suggest there is a difference between a legitimate finders fee and blatantly lining your pocket at the expense of the organisation you are acting on behalf of.
  12. May 17 is the operative date for England. Scotland will set it's own rules. From what we've seen to date that is unlikely to be before England, but it could be later.
  13. I suspect it has more to do with the logistics of international travel, and a UK base now looking less unattractive given the success of the UK vaccination programme.
  14. But the official press statements made clear that was because of the very short lead time between the announcement of the sanctions and the event. So I think if you follow that logic the event looks doubtful.
  15. I think he'll be reassessed as he hasn't been doing much for the last 1990 years or so
  16. I think the other promoters were simply embarrassed by how low the figures that were being reported by Tony were. BTW A previous Long Eaton promoter was subject to a prolonged tax investigation, which yielded nothing of any substance for the Inland Revenue.
  17. I have a programme where the two riders tieing for second both got 2 points. Doesn't make it right. EVEN THOUGH IT WAS THE REFEREE'S SIGNED COPY!!!!!!
  18. I notice if you go to that page it encourages you to buy tickets for Sheffield v Belle Vue ... on 6 May .. there's nothing like looking professional, and this is nothing like looking professional.
  19. 15/4 LE v Peterboro From 22/4 prog: "The weather was of course quite dreadful... an early match-off decision was made at 3.30pm"
  20. 17/4 Poole v Reading Ht 9 I have Phillips as FX Ht 10 I do not believe it has ever been correct to award a bonus point in this situation, and none is shown in my programme
  21. 20 April Oxo v Reading I have Donkey 2nd and Morton 3rd in ht 10 2nd Half - Reserve League Easter Challenge OXFORD 18 READING 17 - I can send you a scan of the completed racecard
  22. 17/4 Oxo v Swindon Oxo: Nielsen, Carlson, Dugard R/R for Butler, Barker, Cunningham, Andersen no 8 Timmo Swin: Shirra, Standing, Adams, Davis, Nilsen, Schroek, Elkins Ht 1: Track very wet, four riders steamed into 1st bend, three came down, Shirra excluded, race never re-run
  23. So does that make a borderline rider hovering between the two teams a queen?
  24. So did I imagine the existence of a speedway track in Leicester, the UK City with the highest proportion of non white citizens in the country.
  25. A candid post on Facebook from Barry and Martin https://m.facebook.com/groups/216596265131644/permalink/2742996475824931/?anchor_composer=false
