Having been through the visa process in Australia and having first hand dealt with a new company that had to get a sponsor license to sponsor foreign workers, I couldn't agree more.

Not if they have sponsored the rider who is having visa issues.

That dj karlito is a whopper of the highest order. The fact they use him shows how clueless the people running the sport really are. i have seen him on twitter arguing with some proper experienced speedway people and making an absolute helmet of himself.

Would the fact that present day Guns n Roses sound absolutely terrible have something to do with it? Seen them live in the MCG here in Melbourne a few years ago and left half way through they were that bad.

I think the fact people who follow the sport would rather comment from a phone/PC rather than attend shows just how far the sport has fallen? You simply cannot expect fans to part with hard earned cash to turn up and watch a poor product. Why should they? It is high time now more than ever that one big league was formed, 5 rider teams and race once home and away then top 4 to play offs and so on. The Gp riders returning haven't brought the crowds back so do away with them.

What I think everyone needs to grasp is that speedway is just not a trendy sport and there is no younger generation of fans flocking through the gates anymore. Its 99.9 percent surviving on the old guard. Ok, there will be one or two clubs who are making a decent profit from good crowds but they are very much in the minority. The amount of clubs that have closed in the last few decades speaks volumes. The sport in the UK has been wrecked by lazy promoters who wont drag the club they promote into the 21st century, scruffy stadiums, ridiculous rule changes by the governing body and riders taking the complete urine. Thats just a couple of major problems, the list is endless. I have said it for years now, the only way out of this is to completely re format British Speedway and change the league structure. Two leagues sharing the same riders with riders missing every meeting just don't work.

Hello Paul. maybe now you have seen this at Birmingham, you can see where the Malletts were coming from at Newport. Throwing ridiculous money into the club with barely any crowds but despite their ridiculous behaviour , they kept the club going for 3 years and at least went out in the final season on a high by winning so many meetings and the ko cup . not comparing Tolley to Mallett as a person but as far as speedway promoters go, they seem pretty similar.

I said nothing of the sort. I said to phil the ace "you clearly dont know who your talking to" or something along those lines when he was talking to steve brum regarding brady kurtz injury. Go and read it for yourself its on the BV vs KL thread.

Should never of been in the top tier in the first place. awful crowds and not helped by the muppets who run the sport in the UK by pretty much forcing them up. there is certainly no danger of ending the season on a high with these type of signings. the club is run as an absolute joke. Why did everyone know MJJ was only riding till May before the season started yet the club said idiot all about it, just like they did a while ago with the Adam Ellis signing. ever since Birmingham have came back around 2007 they have proved the crowds just arent there. They are national league standard.

I don't think you realise who you are talking to here. Brum has plenty of experience regarding feigning injuries, question is does Brady get paid when he's "injured" and missing?😃

Take no notice of him. Obviously doesn't like people giving any criticism to Oxford riders. Maybe he has a crush on Riss ?

His best form at this level has been absent for a few years now. He was superb for Edinburgh in his final year or two there and his first season at Redcar he was flying but is a second heatleader these days.

Rarely agree with Blobby but he is bang on this time. Why should Boughen be giving special treatment? From all accounts a pain in the arse in the pits coupled with a huge ego. Hes had a few knocks and now realises he isn't anywhere near as good as he thinks he is. Been many brits with far better attitudes down the years who have lost out due to averages and rules.

Get off your high horse ffs. Riss is nowhere near the rider he was before his injury and thats all Fromafar was saying. Forget the premiership, he is riding in a team of rubbish that are either past it or not giving a toss.

Turnbulls decisions last night shows why women should stick to cooking, cleaning, ironing and giving head. Absolutely clueless. Thomsens exclusion is possibly the worst decision I have ever seen. She should have her ref license revoked and banned from every speedway stadium in the world.

Exeter done it to Arena in 2000 75-15. They very nearly repeated it vs Glasgow a week later (74-16) but a Glasgow rider beat Harris in heat 15 to stop it. Newport went a week or two after I think and lost 72-18 . Was the season Exeter won the league by winning every single bonus point.

Same place as your teams form... in the bin

I think Ippo could easily afford a replacement for Doyle if needed. Its crazy to see how well they are doing without him and a well under par Emil.

Poole look teririble atm. Cant see them getting close to the title. Got to hand it to Gavan and Ippo, spent years tormenting Poole compared to Ippo and now look at the size difference between both clubs 😂😂 kerr and starke need replacing asap for Poole.
