The promotions ARE the BSPA.         Decisions reached at AGM for a new season are discussed and voted on by ALL promotions!

Not always the case.

New promoters , (less than three years in the role,) don't get a vote. This will include Birmingham, Redcar, possibly Berwick.

Some decisions made at AGM 's and voted in by all the promoter's have subsequently been changed by the management committee , without consultation to the general council ( the rest of the promoters ). When one bold promoter asked how this could be so , he was told " because it can ".

That person is no longer promoting as he lost the will to constantly fight the ' Dark Side'.

The top table will always have the last say.

Have to Agree, there are the ‘chosen few’ who dictate.

You clearly haven't been watching Max regularly at Brough Park this season.  Last night he took a heck of a knock in heat 2, so you'd be a bit slower than normal for the rest of the night after that.

Max has been one of the few shining lights so far this season.  Along with Matty Wethers. 

Danny now scoring what he should at home now.  Edwards finished second in the U-19 British Final, so has something about him.

Got a text from Max’s dad this morning Steve ,the kid is pretty sore this morning(arm wrist and hand) he took a knock to his head which took a lump out of his helmet.his dad told me he wanted max to pull out of the meeting last night after his second ride he were struggling to hold on ..fair play for him giving it his best.hes riding for cradley tonight to fingers crossed for that .

Yes. Definitely. Could have been a lot worse. Fortunately it was not.

Steve will come good. A little low on confidence and not quite getting the bike working how it should.

Ulrich will never be great round Brough but beats the 2nd strings who hate Brough. Needs gating gloves on as he cannot pass.

Lasse not good for Diamonds. Gets heat 15 cos he beat Kerr in rerun of hit 3 then reserves after that. Never was going to get a point in last one. 

Tommy gun just can’t get to grips with Newcastle or the championship for that matter. Hope he has a good one at Scunny. Seems to do better in Premiership.

Max is an enigma when he gates he’s quick , was half a straight behind in most races tonight.Never be more than a reserve in a league like this.

Danny scoring his average again but needs more if getting zero away from home. Should not be getting beat by Edwards at home.

Matty going great and should win rider of the year with as many votes as the rest of the team put together if there is any justice.

Looked like a wooden spoon elect team, but should bounce back against a woeful Brummie team and could do with a boost at Scunny on Friday.

 

 

 

 

Max injured. As confirmed from other posts on here.

Might as well support Redcar and go to the darker side:o

No thanks. They already have one Diamonds "Fan" who supports them or at least seems to. Don't need any more Diamonds fans supporting Redcar.

Surely it’s more about signing riders suited to your home track.

TJ an example paid maximum for King’s Lynn against stronger riders and poor return yesterday...

This PL/CL thing has run its course and needs a bold alternative.

Yes it is.

I'd imagine he is with being from the area. He was also at Newcastle before Ulrich signed

24 hours between races is a lot different to 10 minutes.

Best decision maker was the Office manager Angela Price who is no longer at BSPA.
