With relegation and an extended play offs, there wont be any 'dead rubbers" to be held I would think, which can only help keep crowd levels high across the whole league. . And let's be honest, the UK cannot criticise any other countries operating model can it? Especially one that generates literally millions of pounds sponsorship each season... Finish sixth in the league, knocked out of the playoffs and still end up as champions. Worthy winners. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

But at least they will have won using their own riders... Not by choosing when to have tactical illnesses and injuries so they can bring track specialist ringers in depending on where they are riding... The only thing Mickey Mouse about the Polish leagues are ZG's kevlars.... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You don't seem to have a good word for anyone. To you everyone is a clueless clown.... I'm afraid that's called projection. Correction, I do not think ‘everyone’ is a clueless clown but I rightly describe Chapman and Godfrey and some at the BSPA as clueless clowns as they are guilty of running our sport into the ground. They need to be called out as at the end of the day they are to blame and they have no answers or recovery plans to get speedway out of the mess they caused.

I'm glad you have decided you are "right". So, as the "clueless clowns" (and I would be interested to know who your "some" are), don't have an answer, I'm interested in what your recovery plan would be. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
topaz325 1,855 Posted November 28, 2021 Im sure Mr Godfrey and Mr Chapman are very hard working chaps and have their best interests at heart but the road Speedway is going it is not sustainable in its present form. 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yeah I’m right about who’s to blame, you only have to see the damage they done and were speedway is currently. As far as my recovery plan, I’m not running the sport, it’s for them lot to figure that out! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its primarily to cover any financial and last minute issues as all the team building points/rules & regs etc have already been agreed amongst promotions.
