Falcon1983 557 Posted November 9, 2021 Can anyone see Glasgow, Berwick and Edinburgh moving up as a collective? If Courtney is involved in both Oxford/Berwick but they wont let Oxford in the prem, makes sense to move the other up probably not financially tho When will the BSPL let everyone know what's going on lol Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If only one moves then they are very much stand alone.. And if two move that leaves one left alone.. Bottom line though is why would any team "move up" when you can see the vast majority of the same riders each week already in the 2nd tier? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think the championship model is not perfect but as close to manageable as anything else for UK Speedway Ideally what the championship is now should be what the premiership is maybe with two rising stars per side 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Although I have a feeling you are not too far away. Alot will come down to what stupid rules and averages the donuts in charge decide to come up with.

Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted November 11, 2021 So no traditional AGM this year, all rules have already been agreed, and it’s a 39 points limit for 6 riders plus A rising star. 6 team Premiership remains although “extra competitions” have been added to increase fixtures.
