The classic response of someone who has been proven wrong. Either don't spout rubbish or have the good grace to be suitably embarrassed when called out on it.

Wait till the refugees from the Premiership join us!

Wrong as that would rely on Oxford dropping points. You have to hope (and it is quite likely) that Oxford lose at Glasgow. But one thing is definite - IT ISN'T IN YOUR HANDS

And averaging more than Leon Flint and Jason Edwards

That's the one, he also rode a few matches for Long Eaton which was where I saw him frighten the bejesus out of everyone. -

I'm guessing you never saw Thierry Hilaire -
I did write him down, but crossed him out as the brief was British League era. Les Hewitt (Coventry 1949-53) similarly falls by the wayside.

I've got two Australians - one from Middlesbrough and one from Rye House. Both did five did five seasons.

We seem to say that every time they change it! https://www.svemo.se/vara-sportgrenar/start-speedway/resultat-speedway/resultat-bauhausligan-speedway -
It would also have prevented Charger Nathan Stoneman guesting for the Cheetahs last year when covering for Josh Macdonald

Technically he was 'a minor under the age of 18' who can't be named. -
Poole Pirates Vs Redcar Bears 16/8
arnieg replied to Shaleshifter's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Both their teams have fixtures next Wednesday -
5 months = 22 weeks. So 44 race days. 7 teams x 12 matches = 84 fixtures Of these 8 are taken up by British Final, Pairs, KO Cup and World Cup week. That leaves 36 available dates. At 2 matches per night that's 72 matches. Still leaves 12 further matches to be scheduled. [A few of those can be squeezed into bank hols or world cup week involving teams without 'world cup tied' riders] ...but there were always going to some dates with 6 teams racing

Of course Buster has form: 22 August 1992. King's Lynn v Reading Awarded 75-nil to the Racers after Chapman unilaterally cancelled the match because Loram and Henka were unavailable.

Anyone with the IQ of a lettuce could have forseen that with fixed race nights where six of seven teams were riding and almost universal doubling up, it would result sooner or later in a situation where no (decent) guests were available. So why didn't the BSPL realise this was the inevitable consequence of their decisions? Oh I see.

Were Redcar given the option of postponing their match at Sheffield in 2017? [Due to injury Redcar's announced line up contained six guests and r/r]

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.
