More smog than mist

Pretty much everyone who watches speedway knows that. Hopefully the promoters won't be as forgiving as Len Silver and make changes when necessary

Pretty much what the Lamberts did to Rye House?

Because they were convinced Lambert was signed sealed and delivered. Either they didn't discuss money beforehand and baulked when they discovered what he wanted, or Lamberts parents upped their demands. I can't believe a guy that runs a successful touring car team could be so naive My theory is that Warren Scott and his team wildly underestimated the costs involved in running a speedway team. It's very easy to make up figures when you're running a cash in hand business. I believe they could've been sold a pup

Sell by date is fine. It's use by date you wanna watch You must've skipped a page or two.

Both times when he rode there last season.

Heeps scored paid 27 points from 12 rides for Ipswich at Rye last season. That's pretty decent.

Never saw that coming I must admit

Dunno what that means

Any chance you take this clan war to the appropriate thread please?

You are one sad muvver

No sh*t Sherlock

He's gonna be further along the M8

Simon Stead?

Perhaps the mods should lock the thread until March. Would that be ok for you?

Are we still gonna have the nonsense of Edward Kennett missing meetings when Lakeside run on the same night, or will the new promoters tell em to get stuffed?

They also had four riders averaging over, or very close to 8 points a meeting.

Masters could be Edinburgh number 1 now Cook has left

British or Irish?

Alden, Doolan, TJ, Pijper, Mellgren, Wethers, Carr As told over a week ago

Is John Sampford still team manager? If so, does he have any input into team building?

You surely can't afford to pay two riders £100+ a point. Have they discovered oil under Brough Park?

Not what he said

I'd love to know the reasoning behind the decision to allow NBJ to leave. If, as I suspect, they were assuming signing up Lambert was a certainty before they knew how much he was asking. Either that, or they'd agreed terms, but Team Lambert upped their demands when they knew there was another club willing to pay up. I don't think we'll ever know for sure. The new promotion have been left with egg on their faces and will struggle big time unless they get someone in who knows what they're doing

Looks like TJ has been confirmed
