Looks like Magnus Zetterstrom is focussing on riding in Poland and Sweden after rejecting three offers in Britain. Those offers came from Coventry, Workington and Somerset, and only the former was one he considered. He's said he'll wait and see what happens later in the season with injuries and clubs needing replacement riders, but was quoted on www.racemcsport.com as saying: "It is important to keep racing sharpness, but economically riding in England is a disaster. There is no money over there any more. When you consider your wages against all costs, they will only be slightly more. It is just exhausting. The only reason to go in the English league is that it helps you to keep the focus as a driver."

But where will they all be, if Poland and Sweden go tits up, as has been reported

Well, this little bit of information is now doing the rounds and you can't help but have a little titter when you see the spin Outraged of Dorset has put on it in his thread over at the BSF. The title:
Zorro turned down Coventry
Priceless.

The title: Zorro turned down Coventry Priceless. Have to say I agree with you Subedei, he forgot to mention I suspect that the guy has priced himself out of the market this year. I'm sure I read somewhere that Rabbit said that, I'm sure she will confirm or deny that if I am wrong.
