Justgotmecpc Posted August 14, 2020 Report Share Posted August 14, 2020 It was nice to see my big mate THJ on Wallsend high st this morning with what looked like a sausage or Saveloy sarnie & a cuppa or was it lager in disguise lol... Sorry I couldn't stop for a chat as I had a paying customer in the car ... But you are looking well even with the face mask ( Friday as now it's Saturday ) & I've just finished a 17 hour shift phew bed time.... Hope all are staying well & safe & it'll soon be 2021...

enotian Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 Just for a bit of fun.... if you can imagine a world where 2021 exists and the Diamonds have a Championship speedway team (with the same averages and points limit in place) and Archie Freeman is available on a 2.00 average..... what do you do to the 2021 team, remembering the 2020 team was already 2 points under the limit. Stick or twist? And if you're twisting, how would you twist??? Newcastle Diamonds 1. Claus Vissing 8.43 2. Matthew Wethers 6.92 3. Nick Skorja 5.00 4. Ondrej Smetana 5.00 5. Max Clegg 4.92* 6. Connor Mountain 4.61* 7. James Wright 4.00 Team Total: 38.88 Remaining: 2.12 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The couple of foreign lads who haven't ridden here before could have other priorities on the continent, riders could be tapped up in the meanwhile to join another team who maybe have a vacancy in their team, being already two points down might be handy if the points limit is lowered, and Archie is a must. Highly unlikely to happen anyway, but it must be applauded as a start point. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
arnieg Posted August 15, 2020 Report Share Posted August 15, 2020 If post Brexit immigration rules apply in a similar way to Australia and USA then Skorja will probably get a work permit, Smetana might but Vissing wouldn't. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I still think the likes of EU riders will be eligible for visa's, despite no Freedom of Movement. Be the same as USA and OZ riders now.

I could do wid one... I was told you get them off undercooked pork or beef where the eggs are laid in the animal skin and form cysts... Tapeworm infection is caused by ingesting food or water contaminated with tapeworm eggs or larvae. If you ingest certain tapeworm eggs, they can migrate outside your intestines and form larval cysts in body tissues and organs... got this last bit off that interference net... Oh an I watched a programme where a bloke swallowed some to loose weight an he had bits of them crawling out of his hoop at night an round the bed... Good old Channel Four...
