Whoops

Yes, but its not Richie Worrall guesting, its Kyle Howarth and Ryan Fisher: http://www.newcastlediamonds.co/news/article.asp?id=100496

That appears to be contradicted by the Press Release quoted in Post #1389. So, what was said at the Fans' Forum last night then?

Update on Kacper Woryna's injury taken from the club web-site: 'COVENTRY’S Kacper Woryna suffered severe lacerations to his hand in his crash at King’s Lynn on Wednesday. Woryna was taken to hospital in King’s Lynn before being released at around 4am and taken to Walsgrave. There are no broken bones but he will still require surgery either later today or tomorrow, at which point he will have a clearer idea of his likely time out of action. The club would like to extend grateful thanks to Radec Ruminski of Kenneth Hansen Racing, who stayed with Kacper in King’s Lynn until he was able to be transferred back to Coventry, even though he has a meeting with Kenneth for Workington at Redcar on Thursday. Kacper has also been visited by club captain Chris Harris on Thursday morning, and we wish him all the best for a speedy recovery. Best wishes are also extended to Rory Schlein, who was also involved in the Heat 14 accident, and we hope his injuries are not too severe.' Hoping for good news and a speedy recovery to both.

Careful where you point your didgeridoo, Alexander, and who you allow to blow it. And careful where you chuck your boomerang, in case it doesn't come back. After Romance's tangle with Josh Auty last night, maybe save the woomera until Leicester visit too. Hope the weather and meeting are both to be enjoyed tonight. (Where has sidney disappeared to?)

I think Alan was saying that Barker can only replace Garrity, as two of the three double-uppers share a position, and cannot replace King as a double-up rider. The Green Sheets show Barker and Garrity linked as the two to share a position.

Don't forget the bush hat with corks to keep the flies away, to make the Aussie boys feel more at home.

AccuWeather, which is sometimes more accurate than the BBC, predicts a heavy shower at 16:17 until 16:42, but dry after and cloud cover building up to stop the temperature dropping too far.

Before the re-run of Heat 8 at Leicester last night Sky trailed their upcoming fixture list and the first one shown was - 'April 27 - Belle Vue v Poole'. And, the Belle Vue web-site has a link to pre-purchase tickets and the first currently showing on their Meeting Schedule is - 'Poole Pirates Wednesday, 27/4/16 7:30pm' http://purchase.tickets.com/buy/TicketPurchase?agency=BVA_&organ_val=47609&schedule=list

To hold an ACU licence, a British passport must be produced. Why should it be different for a rider born in Great Britain and one who was not? You don't have to have gone abroad to hold a British passport, but you do if you want to ride in the NL in 2016.

You've probably done this already Sue, but if not maybe try a request on their Facebook page? https://www.facebook.com/Island-Speedways-Wight-Warriors-397385410444345/

Wouldn't it be that an ACU licence would not be issued until the SCB has proof of a British passport, and without an ACU licence the rider is ineligible to ride?

The Regulation in respect of the Heat leader list expires from 01 May 2016.

Good to see Rohan Tungate get a couple of wins last night to boost his confidence, before the 'Auty effect' seemed to kick in and he had his crash. At least it sounds as if machinery rather than man suffered the consequences. He may have got Heat 15 too if it hadn't of been for the equipment damage. The Leicester track may suit his riding style well, so it will be interesting to see how he goes at Blunsdon tonight.

Confirmation that the 2nd Round of the British Youth Championship scheduled to be staged at Belle Vue on Sunday 24 April, has been postponed, with a new date to be announced: http://www.younglionsspeedway.co.uk/round-2-of-the-mitas-british-youth-championship-at-belle-vue-is-postponed/

As I said - 'in due course'... The British Youth Speedway web-site and Twitter feed both confirm the cancellation of Round 2 of the British Youth Championship at Belle Vue which was scheduled for 24th, with a new date TBA. Not sure whether 'moving hell and high water' is an apt expression to used in these circumstances or not Steve. Of course, a track was laid in a fortnight around the football pitch at Brooklands back in 1969 to allow Rochester to move their operation to Romford - times change and different circumstances I suppose.

Too true. The Belle Vue management could learn a lot from you Glyn - in more ways than one.

One of my favourites too Gem and thought he was unfairly treated by John Berry at Ipswich after his 1978 season, before he moved on to Blackbird Road. Nice clip of him having a little battle with Jacko on the old Mildenhall track in 1989 which you may have seen before, but captures Cookies' style, and battling qualities well: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=9DtFiPhG5u4

Thanks for that. Presumably this will be announced on the Belle Vue web-site and Twitter feed in due course...

Could see this being a draw.

Yep, can see the announcement of the postponement of the Colts match. I was suggesting that maybe the club could make an announcement of the decision to put things 'on hold' until at least 25th. But then you probably read what I said as 'onion'? Maybe you should re-read my post #1362 - it won't turn your brain into swiss cheese.

Not there today?

Small world Scotsman. It's a number of years since I have been to Mussleburgh, since they finished the Edinburgh Marathon there. Back in the day, the family ran a tea dealers there and lived in Downie Place just back from the Promenade. Been a couple of years since I've been to Cappielow too. Last time they beat Dumbarton 4-0, so I may have decided to 'retire' after a good home win. Must try and get back again soon though, always feel good to go back. Funny thing was, there was a guy from Clacton, I think, who used to run a double glazing business who was a Morton fan and used togo to Ipswich Town matches wearing a Morton shirt. He used to sponsor match balls and the like at Cappielow. Phil Fox maybe, can't remember now? As far as I know it is closed now. Ahh, I see Scotsman beat me to it.

Alan Brazil. Had some great times in the pub he used to run in Ipswich. The Blackadder? He could never understand that my family was from Mussleburgh and that I was a Morton fan. He's done ok for himself since then. Took him along to a meeting at Foxhall one evening, but can't remember much about it for some reason...
