So Chris Louis is a Reserve Director for the new Limited Company - surely his average is too high which means Only option are Guest or R/R.

AGM - supporting further decline of GB Speedway?

Premiership League – Commencing April 2019
• Minimum rider points average of 3 ‘achieved’ and not assessed
so if a rider cannot have an assessed average.... that means no newcomers can be signed as the likes of say Lidsey, Drabik or Becker would come in on an assessed ave, the same goes for Drew Kemp. :blink:


 

I think they mean that riders who didn`t achieve a average of 3 points in the Premiership in 2018 are not eligible to be signed ie Jack Smith,Max Clegg.

Will not stop new riders joining who`s assessed average is 3 or more.

Dear BSPA, 

I have watch speedway regularly since 1958 at Wimbledon, West Ham, New Cross, Hackney, Crayford, Romford, Rye House, Arena Essex and Skegness. I am now back living in London which maybe you have not noticed is the CAPITAL of both England and the UK. Without a car how do I support this wonderful sport? 

Yours

One very upset former supporter, who would still be a supporter if there was a track in London. 

There is a theme here.  You support them and then they close down.    But seriously I'm sad for you as the capital should have a team.

Well, one of the “two newest” went bust midway through last season.

Surprised they didnt get an 8 team top-flight....and shocked to see both Leicester and Somerset dropping.

Seems like a change of night for the Bears, probably to a Friday - which have been reasonably popular.

And two teams up, Birmingham and ? Hope it is Kent, like to see new teams...shame nobody has stepped up at Rye House with a track ready to use. 

You cant have Fridays unless you get permission from Mr Godfrey

So you’re impressed about what’s come out of the AGM and happy with the state of the sport in Britain right now?

Maybe taking one significant step to address the major problem would have been a start. All that has come from this AGM, one that was crucial and needed to be pivotal, is the merest of tinkering and a huge amount of flannel.

so with having someone owning more tracks knowing full well he doesn't pay over the odds isn't a start?

I'm impressed that there are more clubs in the top two flights in 2019 than there were in 2018. How many of us thought that would be the case ?
