Irk Deflector 130 Posted August 23, 2013 Panthers and Pirates promoters can afford to run if their promoters choose to do so. Belle Vue and Coventry seem to have their houses in order. Two more! Panther's have enough assets to run a 2nd team at Kings Lynn! LOL Will it be a five team league or will others have the finances to run? Speedway - what a mess!

Just two bigger leagues next year is they way to go if possible. Face each side home and away once and have the KOC. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Star Fever 274 Posted August 23, 2013 Just two bigger leagues next year is they way to go if possible. Face each side home and away once and have the KOC. Yeah the EL is full of PL riders already so we'll hardly notice any difference! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Irk Deflector 130 Posted August 23, 2013 Is Peterborough a 'big' club? Depends how you measure it as the actress said to the Bishop! Big Club, yes if based on; financial backing from the promoter, riding assets, machinery assets Big club, no if based on; history but then only old foggies would worry about history rather than the present day!

fish keeper 165 Posted August 23, 2013 (edited) I hope they do away with the EL and just make two leagues even if we have to lose the top riders. Edited August 23, 2013 by fish keeper 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Daniel Smith 5,645 Posted August 23, 2013 I'm not to fussed about the so called "big boys" of speedway at all. Riders come and go all the time and new heroes rise to the top. Elite League or not, not bothered. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,820 Posted August 23, 2013 Just imagine..................... Woffy gets crowned World Champion at the end of the season and what would be the best way to milk the press attention?? Oh i know lets ridiculously cut the points limit and kick out all the big boys including our BRITISH World Champion. Smart move that would be. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
