I feel that IF it actually does run the average gate for regular leagie clashes are unlikely to top 500. Get that paid streaming working effectively to bring in extra cash. Of course enormous gates for the play offs, so why not let a computer work out the final positions and just hold the play offs? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perhaps at Belle Vue, but if you would like a little side bet on all Elite matches attendance average over the new season, say £25 paid to the BEN Fund, why not?

Bagpuss 10,778 Posted March 10, 2021 It’s less than ideal and I’ve always criticised the product and people who put it on when necessary but I think the fact that we are going to have any speedway at all in 2021 is by far the most important thing. A six team league is a fair way short of satisfactory but it is what it is for 2021. Needs to be two or three teams bigger for next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

waytogo28 2,054 Posted March 11, 2021 And that is the continuing magic of UK domestic speedway - deluding itself that all is well. Or abig turnaround is just around the corner. A bit like the UK motocycling industry in the late 1960s. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sheffield still remain an expensive team but I doubt it’ll now buy them the league. Still top four, but only just. I still like the look of Ipswich but can’t decide on second and third. Both teams have an element of home track advantage, Wolves slightly more than BV. Also, if you had to pick between Peter Adams and Mark Lemon as the “better” manager, then Peter wins that one. So, Ipswich vs Wolves final for me.....but then, getting it right would be a first for me 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Flappy 1,594 Posted March 18, 2021 As I've said on the Panthers thread the team is old yes bit could go either way. It could prove past it and injury prone or click and beat everyone in sight 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
