I know Dan Thompson has really benefited from being in the same team. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The use if the word "in" re September is far clearer than "by September" I guess. I'm a bit surprised, though happy, that it will take so long to transition. I think the one UNKNOWN is whether Dogs will run a FULL schedule to September or taper off during the summer as the owners wont want to have the scenario of far fewer Dog Meets they would want Full Schedule. At least NT can go to the BSPL and declare a season to "September" is possible. BSPL may be wary of a scenario like Lakeside > Rye House but at a push I suppoe IF it closed with Brummies having an outstanding final to race either Owners would allow it or we could use ahem...Leicester - we can but dream of Finals! Over to Nigel T I guess! Good summary Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He was riding for Ipswich because they had a couple of extra matches in the play-offs. “ Verbal agreements not worth the paper they’re written on” That’s a new one on me. 😂 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
