Hans Andersen would be a decent number one on 9.26.

 

Not if he is riding in Denmark and Poland next year, he'd never be here!

No, Matt Ford just can’t afford PL speedway with the big boys any more so he’s dropping down into the second division for speedway on the cheap.

Does anyone seriously think the overall product on offer in the PL is better? Yes, there are (an ever decreasing number of) better riders but there's about four teams in the league ffs. The Championship has greater competition, individuals events, the pairs, the fours, local derbies. There's just much more going on. Oh and you don't have to put up with Kelvin Tatum and Nigel Pearson visiting your stadium every now and again. 

Poole will be a good addition and very much look forward to welcoming them to Armadale.

For me, it’s down to the quality of riders.

Ellis, Jensen, Vissing and Perks would be a decent start for PL team building, but it wouldn’t go on to include Doyle, Batchelor and Musielak, all of whom would be in the top ten of CL averages.

Sorry DC you are wrong. Fans are fed up with the ever increasing gaps in the fixtures which will not get better. The fans have no problem with dropping down. Regular fixtures a northern tour two local derbies and still see the majority of riders who ride in the so called top league. No brainer really.
The powers that be ballsed up the knockout cup by calling it the suppoters cup, what buffoon came up with that birdbrained idea. How to kill a good competition stone dead.

On average each PL side has maybe two riders that aren't also riding CL? It's a guess but can't be too far off. Is that really worth the lack of meetings and having to in some cases to adjust your meeting nights for?

A northern tour? No one will go.

Two local derbies to see PL second strings!

It’s designed for cost saving, not better speedway.

Lack of meetings? There’s more in the PL!

Do you get more meetings being a PL rider or being a CL rider? We both know the answer to that.
