The youngsters have to have somebody to ride against.

Worth a shot. Have a look at his standing in the under 24 league. https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/u24-ekstraliga/statystyki/2023

Must be pretty consistent to average 8 in Polish League 1. Some pretty strong performances: https://www.zuzelend.com/zaw,651,dmitri-berge

My mistake, I was remembring the old rules. What is truly embarrasing is they were last extant in 2019 So under old rules Boxall (and Ben Morley) wouldn't be able to guest in CL. But now they can, subject to averages fitting, but can't be nmed AR. Which still begs the question - what is Boxall's CL official average?

Surely he could only guest if named in somebody else's CL team as he is NEG on the NDL Green Sheets. Old rules. My mistake. I think we must infer that he's had his old CL average reduded to 4.00 or less.

That may be true of sports with extensive amateur participation and low entry costs but neither applies to speedway so unless the professional speedway as a whole takes some responsibility then they are acting against their long term interests. Best example of this is the dropping of the Rising Star from the Championship.

Not a valid reason. No such rule.

The NDL Green Sheets make it clear Boxall is not eligible to guest. [See issue 19 amended - where Boxall has NEG against his name] But issue 19 (issued the previous day does not have those words against his name) NEG = not eligible to guest as an NL rider So looks like Berwick chose him on the strength of the error on issue 19 and were allowed to proceed with the booking, given it wasn't their fault and the difficulty in finding an alternative guest at short notice.

Tonight France third place earned them 6th place in the World rankings. A remarkable achievement from a country that a decade ago never had more than a couple of meetings a season. Back in 1991 18 countries entered the World Team Cup and France came ... 18th Behind not just Finland, Norway, Hungary, Italy, Austria but also the giants of Yugoslavia, Bulgaria Netherlands and East Germany And who were 12th sandwiched between Italy and Austria? Poland

The minute you do that Championship attendances plummet.

15 from 6 this year, and 13+1 from 5 last in Ekstraliga so not bad.

Averaging pretty much the same as Musielak and Kurtz in Poland. Do you think they are Championship second strings? By your metric Basso would be a Championship reserve. Sometimes your Poole-centric garbage is just embarrassing.

Beat Robert Lambert in the Polish Ekstraliga, not sure he can get to a much higher level.

Really? Official attendance for the race off in 2004 was 1100.

'Disaster for Australia' Oo Sarcasm!

I think we are now down to six tracks shared with greyhounds. Four of those are under threat (Monmore, Perry Barr and Armadale, and Sheffield), leaving just two where the sports still seem to co-exist Kevin Boothby owned Oxford and Mildenhall

But probably true

Home straight seating - plus under cover, minus not the greatest view (seating not well raked and a couple of Poles in the way Back straight stand (temporary) - great view, not covered (and it often rains in Vojens) Standing - decent views assuming not to crowded or wet

I'd not quibble with that assessment

Which would leave the likes of Sedgmen, Howarth and Toft as number ones next season. Grim, but plausible.

I don't need to look in the annals, I was there

Possibly the weirdest graphic ever - individual scores in a team meeting

Not the first time he's caught my eye
