How can he prove he wouldn’t have crashed on the first bend and been out for the season ? The three essential parts of a contract are offer acceptance and consideration (ie paymement). But whichever way you break it down the season ends on 31st October all contracts lapse. Speedway has been around long enough that even the thickest of promoters (ie Rob Godfrey) have all these things tied up in standard contracts. I’m not talking about rolling over 2020 contracts. This is about contracts for 2021 after BSPL said team averages would be unchanged. Now BSPL want to backtrack, it appears. BSPL is now a company so directors personally liable. water, neck, up to.

Any format would not work without crowds. My suggestion was obviously based on running with spectators. If and when normality returns then I would like to see one league be tried. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The whole point of running a company is that directors are NOT personally liable. Besides contracts are with individual clubs not the BSPL. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Most of the case law involves poaching of employees (so not relevant) and a key phrase in all the analysis is 'without good reason'. I think the BSPL could argue that "to avoid the total bankruptcy of the sport" was a good reason. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midland Red 2,383 Posted January 13, 2021 Don’t understand the continued reference to the Premiership and Championship. Surely the promotors should be looking at how to save the sport as a whole, singing from one hymn sheet. Internal divisions will not help the sport out of the crisis. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Because they signed a TV contract to provide ‘ Premiership ‘ league racing and if they don’t provide it they have no cash and could be sued for breach of contract. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
