He states the amount owing is from three different clubs indicating by means of flag that they are spread between the UK and Sweden during the period 2015 to 2017. He quotes three currencies, firstly in Kroner (Sweden are not in the Euro-zone) but then in Euros and Sterling presumably to better illustrate the extent of the overall debt.

You should be able to field an individual event over 16 heats without any rider meeting more than once.

Nick is on the list to ride: http://www.lakesidehammers.co/all-star-line-up-for-hammers-opener/

It seems very odd to me as well. On a more general note, there is a thread regarding this subject on the 'Speedway News and Discussions' section. Further comments should go there as they are not relevant to the Lakeside 2018 thread. '

Details of opening meeting announced, Spring Classic: http://www.lakesidehammers.co/all-star-line-up-for-hammers-opener/ Season ticket valid for this event.

There couldn't be a clash unless Peterborough decided to ride on a Monday or Wednesday

Just to set the record straight, Jon Cook did not get the averages wrong. Back in November and immediately after the AGM, to which he was not invited as he was neither a Premiership nor Championship promoter at that time, he let the BSPA know he intended signing Ed Kennett and Ben Morley so asked what averages they would come in on. He was told he couldn't sign Ed but for Ben it would be his PL average from 2016. From this he deduced that the same situation would apply to Zach Waijknecht

For those who were unable to attend last evening's fans forum, the main points discussed are here: http://www.lakesidehammers.co/forum-overview/

Max might yet find himself back at Edinburgh now that they have been unsuccessful in securing Luke Becker.
-
They are all there Steve apart from Ben and Zach who didn't ride in the CL last year.
-
Not JC's job I would imagine but something to be raised at next Friday's forum.
-
A Poole fan still smarting from a 60 - 30 drubbing last year but, to agree he is right. Little news emerges from the Website and not a lot of improvements to the stadium had been apparent in 2017 and it is in a far worse state than when Len left it.
-
Difficult to say. The fact that Lawson rode for Somerset last season could imply Somerset will get the nod if the 2017 regs remain. However, as Somerset are riding on a non-allocated PL race day might tip the balance in favour of Lakeside.
-
Opening fixture 23rd March, Spring Classic in memory of Lee. Details on main website. Also, PL and CL fixture list out tomorrow and in this week's Star.
-
They cannot run on Wednesdays exclusively but I expect they will use as many as they can then have a few on Mondays. Just like Poole I would imagine.
-
They did run several fixtures on Wednesdays last season so that might be their day of choice.
-
..and Rye House loved it on 10th August. I know, I was there.
-
I think the final rider will be Chris Harris. Scott is a certainty and responded positively on twitter following the announcement of the first two signings and the whole team appears to be built around the inclusion of KK. There are barely any other options. Kenneth Bjerre's average is too high whilst others around the high seven's are already accounted for except Hans Andersen. I wouldn't go there though. He and Scott had history during their season together at Ipswich in 2004 and, whatever you do, don't mention the final heat of the SWC that same year!

Nothing wrong with being old. Just ask Greg Hancock!

Sgb Premiership 2018 Confirmed Signings
tocha replied to Mattfordfan's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Ed Kenneth 6.39. Ben Barker 6.00. Stuart Robson 5.72 Max Clegg 2.00 to Rye House -
Very much so.
-
On paper, no. In reality,yes.
-
If Doyle is to be at Rye they cannot retain either Harris or Nicholls and still keep KK. The maths doesn't work. However, they could go for largely the line-up which finished the season then fine-tune by replacing Wells using Kennett instead plus the 2 point reserve Clegg in order to bring the side within the points limit, but this would contradict the aim of Steve Jensen in having an out and out rider #1.
-
Does seem odd. Of his 15 heats for Wolves he scored 7 at an average of 1.87. Perhaps that's how it works.
-
Deceptive rider is Ricky Wells. He joined Rye House during May and started quietly as quiet Americans do. However, from August he rode in eight meetings achieving an average of 8.11 and, possibly, won more heats than any other Rocket during this period.
