It seems that some of your post has been missed out. I'm sure that it should read.. "Thanks for showing how wrong I was, so can any of you etc....."

I suggest you re-visit to see what (nothing??) they have done!:- http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?/topic/86166-save-coventry-speedway-objection-document-now-available-to-download/

Blimey. Hit Men come cheap these days!

BT Sport will be showing a programme featuring the Thompson Twins, Tai Woffinden and Gary Stead immediately after the Cardiff GP. Included in the feature will be an interview with Gary, as well as visit to Dan & Joe's home workshop, coaching sessions from Tai at Leicester and the recent British Youth Championship round at Rye House.

If anyone knows of a Peter Harvey from Exmouth, please get them to PM me as I have received their Cardiff tickets.

Dan is officially classified as 2nd after a 3-man Run-Off.

Agreed, plus, I believe the 'trainee' Referee is now a 'Probationer' and as such, when the probationer takes charge of the meeting, the qualified Referee has to leave the Referee's box.

I wasn't passing judgement. Just showing the possibility.

Unlikely, but possible? Bearing in mind this is 2 days…. Team A score 12 x 3-3 (2nd & 3rd) = 36 points. Team B score 10 x 5-1 + 2x 3-3 (1st & 4th against Team A) =56 points Team A ‘win’ Heat 43 (2nd & 3rd) 39 total. Team A ‘win’ Grand Final (2nd & 3rd) Total 42 points. Team B (1st & 4th in the Final) Total 59 points!! Team A lift trophy having never provided a heat winner!

I'll explain why.. then..... I'm just guessing!

3. If the scores are shared between the two teams taking part in the Race Offs heats 22 & 23. Final 2 heat 22 (Semi Final) and Final 2 heat 23 (Grand Final), the team taking 2nd and 3rd position will be considered the better place team.

2a. In the event of equal points for two teams after the conclusion of the heat 42, the team that scored the most points when the two teams met will be considered the better placed team. 2b. If the tie cannot be decided by 2a. The team scoring the higher number of bonus points will be considered the better placed team. 2c. In the event of equal points for three or more teams, after the conclusion of the qualification heats, the team scoring the higher number of bonus points will be considered the better placed team.

Whilst not intending this as a slight on Coventry Storm, oops, I mean Bees, or any other NL team, Eastbourne and Birmingham really looked the part in their team race suits. Eastbourne even had matching green boots!

Respectfully, what is the answer then?

I don't think they were given a reason, or explanation.

Nothing strange about having a meeting rained off.

All rides taken in a meeting are included in the GSA.

Smolinski talking to Poole! Revealed at Longtrack Herxheim.

Maybe his contract with Denmark was signed when it was declared that GB Speedway would be Monday & Thursday?

NO.

To prevent sudden large changes in CL averages the Rolling Average matches reduces gradually (to 20) during this season. Last season's Green Sheets were based on up to 36 matches. To drop to 20 immediately would have wiped out almost half a season's stats. May's RA is based on 30 matches and the figure will reduce by 2 matches each month.

Correct, again. Supplementary Regulation to be issued shortly.

You are correct. Championship Shield matches are included in the Rolling Average.

From the Save Coventry Speedway website. http://www.savecoventryspeedway.com/ THE latest show of support for the campaign to bring speedway and stock car racing back to Brandon has come direct from Westminster.A group of eleven Members of Parliament/House of Lords have submitted a joint letter to Rugby Borough Council, urging rejection of the Brandon Estates planning application.This speculative application, on a site which is not part of the Rugby Local Plan, seeks to destroy decades of sporting heritage and includes no satisfactory provision for the two popular family sports to be relocated elsewhere in the area.The letter not only calls on the Council to reject the application; it also urges them to support efforts to bring the sports back to Brandon.It is signed by a number of local MPs as well as others who have shown solidarity with the unacceptable position all fans of motorsports at Coventry have been placed in, and has been brought about thanks to speedway’s All Party Parliamentary Group.The Campaign Group would like to sincerely thank all of the MPs and Lords who have taken such an interest in our fight, and who have signed the letter, and especially Mark Pawsey and his office for co-ordinating this response.

Apparently, there has now been a *U-Turn/*Rethink/*Clarification (*delete as appropriate) regarding the Green Sheets. 2017 averages WILL be included this year for a 20 match Rolling Average. Riders who do not have a 2017 average will maintain their starting average until they have completed 4H & 4A.
