...because Prem riders are on higher pay rates!!  Simples.

But most of the premiership riders are championship riders, there just using the premiership badge, so they can charge more.

There are still 5/6/7 riders that are of a higher calibre.So in theory,and it usually does happen that a rider will average less for their Premier team than their Championship team.So they would need a higher pay scale for the Prem just to get what they would in the Championship.

For me if it was entertaining I’d pay £20 plus.   On the flip side the way Speedway is at the moment if it was run in my back garden I’d drawer the curtains.  In other words you couldn’t make it cheap enough.

As someone who started watching when the Lynn team consisted of Betts, Simmons, Cole, Crump, Crowson,Humphreys  ( who was the other one ?). I would never have missed a Saturday night.  Including all the fill in meetings.   
oh to feel that way again

How could you forget Ian Turner?

I had the feeling my first trip was pre Tiddler.  I was wondering if it could have been Featherby ? I’m not sure that Crump rode every meeting either

No allen or Stewart for first meeting would suggest work permit/visa delays or problems it that's the case surely ben barker could be an option?

Isolating ?  I can't see it being Visa or Work Permit issues as surely with our Country's strict and scrupulous immigration policy, especially since the advent of Covid-19 they wouldn't be in the country

Allen was declared late so probably hasn’t yet got clearance to work in the UK ,  Stewart hasn’t had clearance to ride in the Premiership as it requires a change in visa and the paperwork hasn’t come thorough yet.

As for the idiotic comment previously ( Smith ) I assume the author has mental issues.
