No there isn't. ...and yes they are ...

For giving good advice? All he got wrong was the amount per meeting. At least we've now got confirmation that taking a bribe to break the rules is OK.

These high winds play havoc with the semaphore flags.

No inference needed. Gordon Pairman & Chris Louis have both confirmed that it's once only. Of course, in the crazy world of speedway regs this could change several times before next March.

"I heard"? Nothing official then...

As if we needed further proof of who's running the asylum...

... and as I pointed out, isn't necessarily involved in every SCB Court hearing. Has there been an official announcement of the appointment because the SCB site still lists Gillias, Steele, Reeve, Harkess & Pairman as the membership?

They aren't. A minority of the SCB board members are made up from a tiny minority of BSPA members. Anyone appearing at an SCB hearing has the right to object to a member of the SCB Court which could, in some cases, sit without any BSPA representation involved.

It came to light at the Peterborough fans forum that it has been changed to 1.3.

Try again. It's 3.21 x 1.3 = 4.17

If you mean about only 1 use per meeting, Chris Louis says the following in his AGM round up; "It has been replaced by an old fashioned tactical substitution where you can replace a rider with one that is in better form or whatever and you can do that once between heats five and 14 excluding heat eight."

I thought people wanted less doubling up, not more. It's a long-standing rule that was removed for just 1 season which opened the flood gates to a situation which supposedly has put a lot of people off the sport. Nicholls had his chance and didn't take it.

...and plenty of average British riders who can.

It's not complicated. Until last year he couldn't, this year he could have done and next year he won't be able to. This year was a case of fixing something that wasn't broken, as they're wont to do, in fact it made it worse by allowing more Premiership riders to double up in the Championship.

It's only the reintroduction of a long standing rule that was dropped last year.

The rule's already there and available for use at the MC's discretion as it was in the case of Craig Cook.

Gordon Pairman has already answered the question, it's once only. http://www.speedway-...dpost&p=3058705

Premiership is still 2 home 2 away AFAIK and, on past form, the League Cup matches in the Championship will count.

You can with MC permission.

The league will be 1 home 1 away, so less matches overall.

The Chairman said after the 2015 AGM; “We’ve got a five-year plan and I’m confident we can get to where we want to be within that time scale."
