Going for the Polish audience?

Senior moment

Unlikely as Poland under 24's are on Tuesday and Connor should be at Redcar on Tuesday.

That's a 'no facility' guest - I.e. up to 75% of replaced rider's average. Can't use R/R as there is no facility.

Basically Liz Truss and Kwasi Kwartang saved Edinburgh speedway by tanking the economy

Well at 34 he's younger than Tatum

Indeed. Look at Leon Madsen - was already 30 when he became a GP regular. Or Lindgren heading for a career best finish at age 38. At the other end Crump, Woffinden and Artem Laguta all struggled when they were introduced to the GP relatively early.

I think this was it http://www.gbspeedway.com/2023/championship.php?mc1=o&mc2=bwo&mc3=x&mc4=x&champ=BWO

Lambert 3.89 [CL av of 5.84 /1.5] qualified ahead of Hume and similarly Cook and Barker who were not in PL teams on 25 July when new greensheets were issued are there by dint of their CL averages divided by 1.5. So I reiterate my view that it's based on 1 August GSAs. Would have been nice if they could simply have said that though.

How about Wozniak [5.91 GSA, fresher than Wuffy's] for Cook 5.96. Should be free from Polish commitments after next weekend, knows Leicester and UK.

He *may* be destined for Glasgow, but he can't have signed for them yet as he can not in law sign a contract until he reaches 16. So everyone else still has a week to come up with a better offer.

There is no 2.5% deduction once the season has started so that comes in at 39.37

Not a new thing: http://www.internationalspeedway.co.uk/wtc13.htm

Done on 1 August green sheets (Prem) I believe. But it does seem unreasonable that the under 21 champion doesn't get a place.

I thought not - we shall see

But they haven't. If they had named him the BSPL preview would show him riding, and if doesn't. It clearly shows R/R.

Unless heat 19 is a nil - nil

Not so great second heat

Both BSPL and Glasgow website CLEARLY state Gilkes and Pearson are in Latvia. There is a legitimate doubt over Thompson, what's the problem? One dodgy graphic in a Plymouth social media post which is probably not the main source of reliable info for Glasgow supporters.

I think we established that 'experienced' NDL riders without a CL team ( e.g.Boxall before last week, Morley) can guest in the CL. However go back 2/3 years and that was not the case. A rule change that slipped under the radar (well mine anyway)

Topping last year's £2772 which was already the highest in either league.

Is it*? There appears to be no difference between finishing second and sixth. And I somehow don't think you are worried about Edinburgh overtaking you. * obviously commercial imperatives mean all postponements are bad from a financial perspective.

It would appear to be his only meeting there in the last 13 years. He might have ridden there in 09 with Newcastle or 05 with the Raiders looking at his earlier career. http://www.gbspeedway.com/2023/ridervstrack.php?mc1=s&mc2=rv&mc3=x&mc4=x&name=Steve Boxall&track=Scunthorpe - doesn't include individuals, but I can't see any he's ridden in since 2010.

Biggest victory margin since 2017 (Slangerup 63 Grindsted 22)
