  1. And sadly Philip the Royal Mail delivery service will not get any better after the first class postal rates increase to 85p for a normal first class letter on 1st January 2021.
  2. In my first season watching live speedway in 1976 Roger Johns was the first Wimbledon rider I saw win a race at Plough Lane (8 March) heat 8. He was also the Wimbledon rider I saw to win a race for Wimbledon in a away fixture (24 March) heat 2, at White City.
  3. Dave and Ron Coventry are RDC promotions Ltd that can lead to some confusion regarding the names of the cases. For John below is the last 2014 significant case. Strange that this case in on the legal databases such as Westlaw, LawTel etc and LexisNexis etc but not listed in full on the Supreme Court. website from the BAILLI website https://www.bailii.org/uk/cases/UKSC/2014/13.html cost from the Supreme Court website. https://www.supremecourt.uk/cases/uksc-2012-0076.html The Lawrence's in these cases used 'Conditional Fee Arrangement' lawyers also known as no-win-no-fee. Their lawyers received a big uplift in fees upon winning their case. The overall court cost had its own hearing due to the uplifted fees, well in the hundreds of thousands, of pounds.
  4. John The point I was making in my post and another part of this forum is that the judgment in Coventry v Lawrence [2015] UKSC 50 following on from the previous cases in relation to issue. Coventry (t/a RDC Promotions) v Lawrence [2014] UKSC 146; [2015] AC 106 and the significant judgment in Coventry v Lawrence [2014] UKSC 13.; Coventry (t/a RDC Promotions Ltd) v Lawrence [212] EWCA Civ 216; Lawrence v Fen Tigers Ltd [2011] EWHC 360 (QB) N.B. This case is also known as Lawrence v Mildenhall Fen Tigers, with the judgments in the 2011 and 2012 no longer followed.. Is that after the Supreme Court [2015[ is that private nuisance for noise will be an issue and impact upon all motor sport venues in the future. This is clear too see when reading these judgements.
  5. I know it is off-topic but in the 1976 Laurels at Wimbledon the two reserve riders Brendan Shilleto and Ian Williams both took 9 rides each (may be a recorded for two reserve riders). This was after the non-arrivals of Dave Morton, Mitch Shirra and Dave Jessup alongside Bob Kilby blowing his engine up in his first ride. I only mention this because the match report printed in the Speedway Star is incorrect. My file is on the Speedway Researcher website, with the result coming from my meeting programme, which I remember it never stopped raining.
  6. 11 May 1979 Hackney 22, Wimbledon 56 (new BL away win record) Hackney (Finn Thomsen 7, Barry Thomas 7, Sean Willmott 3+1, Bo Petersen 3, Ted Hubbard 2+1, Bobby McNeil 0, Vic Harding 0) Wimbledon (Edward Jancarz 12 max, Roger Johns 9+3 paid max, Larry Ross 11, Stefan Salomonsson 8+3, Rudy Muts 7+2, Colin Richardson 7, Patrick Pawson 2) The following season on 23 May 1980 the scores were Hackney 56, Wimbledon 22 Hackney (Bo Petersen 12 max, Zenon Plech 11+1 paid max, Finn Thomsen 10+1, Barry Thomas 6+2, Roman Jankowski 6+2, Sean Willmott 7, Keith White 6) Wimbledon (Edward Jancarz 9, Larry Ross 7, Roger Johns 5, Colin Richardson 1, Stefan Salomonsson 0, Mick Hines 0, Dave Brewer 0)
  7. Antonio Lindback 3-5 £400 more this is my SS (so now is 2-4) and my DYM bet (a £200 bet that has been doubled to £400)
  8. My bet for 4th round Rybnik Wednesday July 22nd Lahti 4 - 6 £1,500 more
  9. Chunky, even though my misunderstanding does not reach the serious harm threshold test for defamation that the Supreme Court judgment developed and laid down in Lachaux v Independent Print Ltd [2019] UKSC 27 it right for me to rectify my misunderstanding and apologize to iris123, after all this is the correct forum edicate.
  10. I was wholly unaware of this fact when posting. I have edited my original post and apologise to iris123 for my honest mistake.
  11. Totally agree the minimum if iris123 agrees as iris123 started the thread otherwise this thread will be elongated with one team riders such as my choices.
  12. Shame about today meeting and I await your Rybnik odds in due course to decide which rider I will put my £1,500 on.
