So looking at those rules you don't get a bonus point for drawing, 

Dunno tbh, who cares really... All I originally said was that speedway was the only sport where you get more points as an away team for drawing than a home team... Then BWitcher QC was all over me with insults

There should be a system similar to the NBA. The bottom club should get to pick any 2 riders they want out of the entire league.

:rofl: How would that work:blink:

They do it in the NBA. The bottom team gets the first two draft picks from the free agents.

It ensures a competitive league.

The riders are self employed. You can't make them ride for any team they don't want to. And then there is the wages. Some might be able to afford them, some can't. Will never work.

Every team can draft pick riders from all the others teams in the league every week of the season now so no need to bring in any extra rules.. :D

It doesn't matter how many times you say it, 

You are wrong and have been told as such by several folk on the thread.

Neither is it 'ridiculous' as you claim it to be.

He stated no facts. Just those irrelevant to the debate and his claim of a 'ridiculous' scoring system.

As i see it !!

1      2 / 3 leagues set out on cost of running. Teams to join league on cost basics, Join November Agm.

2      Averages done away with, Swedish   A , B , C, D system adopted. ( D see below)

3      Squad system ?.  Top league name extra 2 (D) riders from lower league/s,  (9 riders per team)  , no transfers  at all unless teams        down to 6 riders  due to injury . R/R to come in only if rider availability  exhausted.

4      Match days as is.

5      Point system as is, ( if it aint broke don,t fix it)

6      Tracks prepared safely ( too many unsafe this season )

7      Online Channel / Buy live matches. 

8      Leagues not to be run by the Promoters !!
