Wolves have already completed their side. Does Nicki Pedersen still live in Stevenage?

Can't be that then.

I still do not know why King's Lynn have changed their race-night. Was this after NKI's announcement so have they approached another Dane who last rode here in 2012 for Peterborough and said he would consider an offer if you changed to Thursday because "ya know I can still ride in all the Danish meetings I want ya know and sometimes give me a day's break between Sweden and the UK ya know." Finished with an average of 8.61, so if they want to retain Rory and Kenneth they wouldn't have been able to include Lewis Kerr as well. Replacement EDR Ashley Morris?

I am sure Jon Cook will play fair with this situation and work towards minimising this just as he did in 2014 in allowing Ipswich to use Adam Ellis from time to time when fixtures clashed. After all it is in both clubs' interest and, not least Lewis himself, that he secures as much track time and earnings as possible. Of course, if Ipswich wish to guarantee protecting their interest the best way forward is to purchase his contract, something not lost on Louis' I imagine.

Got this info from another member from the Lakeside Forum who is usually quite reliable. He must have dreamed this one though!

He stays put as Kerr will replace Bates at Coventry. As far as I can see, the Bees have two tier one riders at reserve now. All this has stemmed by King's Lynn moving their race night to Thursday it appears. Perhaps this is the first step in Buster's plan for a single EL race night and eventually they will all be riding on a Thursday. Whatever, Bates cannot replace him at Lynn as he has already signed for Sheffield and, for that matter cannot replace Sarjeant for obvious reasons.

Neil Vatcher stands down as team manager to concentrate on youth speedway development: http://www.lakesidehammers.co/10779/

No problem. He'll have Klindt this season to teach him the art of rolling starts.

He will as he has signed for Masarna in the Elitserien as well.

Robert Lambert has signed for Masarna in the Elitserien.

Tony Davey and Pete Bailey. John Louis won heat 12. Each had four ride maximums, one paid. Eastbourne had two last places going into heat 13 whilst getting 5-1s in heats 2 and 8. Full details for this match and vast number of others can be found here: http://www.speedwayresearcher.org.uk/index.html

Ambiguous. The AGM statement: 'Heat-leader standard riders graded into a list – maximum of three per club. This is to deal with distorted averages created by race format. Any new non-British rider assessed at 6.5 or above to join this list.' I cannot tell if this refers to riders completely new to the EL or those not riding here in 2015.

Eastbourne, 1971 second division champions didn't have a single prominent heatleader except, perhaps, Malcolm Ballard, but a team of solid second strings. What can be achieved is what took place at Foxhall Heath on 5th August. Despite Ipswich providing eleven out thirteen race winners they could only manage a draw and going into the final heat were four points down.

The last time Good Friday was earlier, 21st March 2008, Lakeside were at Poole for a challenge match on 12th March. Whether or not being the 25th means the season starts 15th March next year I don't know but we open our season on the 18th, Lakeside that is. Clearly you weren't at the Morten Risager Testimonial in March 2014. Never been so cold since being at the Arena Raceway for the Good Friday fixture 21st March 2008. In fact towards the end I was so cold I was beginning to feel unwell. Cold when I got home and still so when I went to bed.

Got lost in all that scotch mist that descended on them.

Heeps would leave 6.65 for the final rider but I don't see any credible rider out there who would fit the bill. It would place Kasper at reserve though.

Actually they haven't. This is what Matt Ford said: "....I really believe that he will develop into an out and out heat leader which will give us that bit of extra depth to the side and I am surI really believe that he will develop into an out and out heat leader which will give us that bit of extra depth to the side and I am sure the Poole fans will quickly make him feel very much at home. He is a rider who I have been interested in for a while and with the rules on heat leader criteria having been ironed out during Conference I felt that now was the time to make the move for him as in my mind he ticks all the boxes." e the Poole fans will quickly make him feel very much at home.

Frankly, I'd be devastated if I was a Morrissey fan.

Just one problem, if Sam returns to Leicester he won't be at Rye unless they change their race night.

That was when they gave Lambert a run-out which resulted in his being short-term Rocket. I expect this was done by special agreement as well as Lakeside, inexplicably, agreed to visit Leicester the same day as the Swedish Individual Championship which meant they were already without AJ and Nilsson.

No I imagine. The only reason it happened last season was that at the time Ed was signed by Lakeside (and Rye House for that matter) he was still a Coventry asset meaning the Hammers had priority. It was all down to which league the parent club rode. Once the Garrity/Kennett transfer was completed it would then mean Rye had priority. Therefore it was done by gentleman's agreement whereby, in the event of a clash, Ed would be made available to whichever club was riding at home.

Also applies to Lewis Kerr. Revised averages are Sarjeant 4.88 and Kerr 6.85.

Danny King 9.54 Nico Covatti 7.55 Lewis Kerr 7.03 Morten Risager 6.86 James Sarjeant 5.00 Paco Castagna 3.33 Darryl Ritchings 3.00 total 42.31

Other riders now available following Ipswich's clearout are Tungate, Heeps, Ashley Morris and Nielsen.

7.47, exactly Chris Holder's average but I don't suppose it will be him lol.
