If you don't have enough, or any assets, the BSPA give you a figure you must lodge with them, in addition to the mandatory bond which is held to cover speedway losses if you can't continue. If say Hulme was their rider, and his estimated value was £1500, and the minimum asset value for each club in your league was say £15k, you would have to pledge the difference which would be £13.5K

You are living in the past, you would be surprised what incentives the BSPA give Clubs to move up a League

Maybe Argos would be happier if Mick Horton was running the Birmingham show?

You think riders sign as a asset for free no chance they will get a hefty signing on fee probably even more than the loan fee for a rider 

Think riders can opt to take 10% of the asset transfer fee but this means their league time served is reset. I remember Cam Woodward couldn't host his testimonial after 10 years in the UK as he took a slice of his transfer from Edinborough to Eastbourne? He said at the time that £600 was a lot of money to him as there was no certainty he would make it to the 10 year mark.

think you will find tom will be rideing for some one else next season! 

IF Brum have failed to secure the services of Tom Bacon this season i fear for them unless he asked for a move away (which feels unlikely). Fans will not take kindly to one of their own not being included especially one destined for the very top.

When Tom went to Birmingham from Mildenhall he was a 4 point rider, This season he was the best rider in the NL as he finished Top of the averages, Why would Tom not want to ride for Birmingham, or maybe why the Promoters Don’t want to sign him, There is no logical reason why Tom will not be a Birmingham Rider next season, It’s a match made in heaven

IF Tom isn't at Brum this season the only reason i can think of is that he feels he has got the best out of himself on the track and wants to master somewhere else. He opted for P'boro the past couple of seasons (not a track that suited him) because he wanted to improve on all tracks and its paying off. Riders who want to be track specialists stay still, riders who want to dominate on all tracks move around,

 Complete nonsense, IF Tom doesn’t ride for Birmingham (Which by the way I’m sure he will) It will be for one reason and one reason only MONEY

Let's see what the final line-up is before we start to become over critical of the 'promotion', who in fairness are taking a massive financial gamble to give 'us' the supporters something we've been craving and yearning for in a very long time!

Beggars can't be choosers as they say ?

Watching Championship speedway week in, week out is good enough for me!
