  1. Having charged £16 for the National League equivalent, £18 was never going to happen.
  2. As cityrebel says, I understand they have arranged for Sunday 16th @ 17.00 in the event of a cancellation
  3. Glad this has been shuffled. For info, I don't believe GSI have anything to do with the Grand Prix
  4. I don't reckon Swindon will face any appeals!
  5. I think it's more likely to follow the normal League Racing format, but can't find the information anywhere
  6. He's being capped on his home track, and why not? Gives local fans some added interest and rewards his ambition in riding full time Elite League. His scores at Lakeside have been decent: Last 4 8+1 (4) 6+3 (4) 5+2 (4) 11+1 (5) Good chance to give some fresh talent a go and make the youngsters feel part of the International set-up
  7. Nicholls & Klindt line up for Swindon in this one due to Steady's injury
  8. Really hoping to be able to get out of work and get to this one. Mark deserves a fantastic turnout and I hope it all goes well
  9. I agree that they would survive without the British. It is going to be interesting to see how this all unfolds. If PZM are banning riders with a Polish License from racing in foreign leagues, then Poland could end up an all Polish League with no Brits, Swedes, Danes etc etc. Now whilst all of these riders, of course, will want to be racing in Poland, the banning of riders from racing in foreign countries can work both ways. As has been said, a Club in Sweden has recently been closed down due to noise issues so I can see them wanting to stick with the new silencers. Another of Speedway's very own soap operas could be unfolding!
  10. Facts normally have to be correct mate. Parts in bold may need re-visiting
  11. I thought it was a fair enough question. As far as I'm aware, Clubs do not pay an entry fee to the leagues year on year. An amount is lodged with BSPA and held in case of things going t**s up, but I don't think there's an annual fee to be paid. You obviously know a fair bit about the sponsorship side of things, that I am not questioning. But on the other side of the fence... Who has the race suits made? Did BSPA want sponsorship rights to the whole race suit? Or was it just a small part? Who pays the travel/accommodation etc for the World Cup? Do BSPA actually make anything out of the British GP as you refer to? Genuine questions, as I like to look at both sides of any argument.
  12. Do the riders pay for their own suits? If so I can understand them being unhappy
  13. I feel fairly confident that the Swindon Promotion will put Sedgy in the side on a full time basis if it came to it, possibly with a view to a Premier slot opening up further down the line
  14. I'm all over it like cling film. Can't wait. Cracking line up & hopefully some cracking racing to boot!!
  15. Peter Ljung was at Reading? Always thought he was Eastbourne & then Swindon?
