After a BSPA Management Committee meeting on Tuesday the Sapphire Engineering Diamonds now know that they will need a replacement rider for skipper Jason King and that rider will be former Diamond, Lubos Tomicek.
Newcastle made an application to the MC requesting a facility to cover for Jason but that was rejected necessitating the need for a replacement.
Diamonds co-promoter George English, a member of that committee, though obviously he had no involvement in the voting, said 'We did not expect to win the vote but we did receive a very fair hearing, in the end we lost out to a democratic process and we have to accept the decision.'
'We immediately sought permission from Jon Cook at Lakeside to bring Lubos back to the Diamonds and with the assistance of my former co-promoter Dave Rowland all the plans were put in place and Lubos immediately left Prague and headed to the UK.'
'He will be back in time for our opening matches this weekend and he will be welcomed by Jason who is still very much our club captain.'
