they could not put that show on every week though.

he's an idiot , but that cant offend him because he wont see this. 🤣

all the gp riders are taking a drop in pay this year. i wish we could pay all the riders more money, but the economics of it is going to dictate what the riders can be paid eventually,

Most PREM clubs cant afford what PREM clubs pay..

I do find it quite ironic that that particular poster always wheels out the ‘you’re against British speedway’ card but in the same breath talks down the national league and majority of the championship riders, even naming them at times. i think it’s clear who is really ‘anti British soeedway’

I guess we'll find out in time. He's fairly pushing the boat out this year, travelling so far north, eh?

Lydd Speedway Update Lydd Speedway will be working towards becoming a fully licensed track. With Try Speedway already confirmed for a training day in early March, and the Sussex Eagles Motorcycle Club also planning to host events, preparations are well underway. A range of different events is currently being considered, with the initial focus on hosting a PIT BIKE competition. Further details will be announced in the coming weeks. Additional events are also planned, including speedway events and other motorcycle activities. As part of ongoing improvements, a safety upgrade will be carried out, including the installation of an air fence, which is scheduled to be fitted this month, weather permitting. What we will be also focusing on is getting the younger kids getting plenty of practice on there Revvi bikes.

30 PL meetings? More like 16 + KO Cup

Yeah there’s no way couple of the riders been announced so far are on the NDL pay structure.

He should be coming in on his previous championship average minus the 2.5%.

14 clubs 2 home 2away maybe chuck in a cup completion would give riders more meeting than if they were doubling up so would earn more money I don’t think any rider riding in the championship earns double the money riding premiership either

Dan Thompson didn't quit when he was sacked from Leicester. Neither did his brother. Plenty of riders would stick around I reckon . Stack a shelf or ride a bike ? Give me the bike every day.

But they are getting 30 Premiership meetings with 4 or 5 rides per night and at twice the pay rate I'd estimate that most double uppers would lose two thirds of income but still have 75% of the cost level The net result is to leave them earning somewhere around what they could earning stacking supermarket shelves I think more would quit than carry on

Had them blocked before tonight but if that's what you want to believe then so be it.

You don't know either? Only the rider themselves know. But there is plenty of proof they can support themselves riding for just a championship club. I care about every single club. Every single one. Including the NDL clubs. They produce our next Dan Bewleys, Robert Lambert's, Bomber Harris etc. Actually fans do care about the NDL. The problem is the lack riders in it and the lack of support the kids get. My job as a fan is to support them so the conveyor belt of talent keeps flowing. We're going to have to agree to disagree on this one.

Surely.. One League 14 teams. 26 meetings minimum. 5 rider teams = 5 or 6 rides per night.

Why are you calling the riders out when you're now admitting that you've got no idea how much they earn? One Big League kills British Speedway, Barely anyone cares about the NDL hence why it's woefully attended. Also got Clubs coming back and maybe a few more in the future. If Promoters want to put on the best product they possibly can during these tough times then I'm not going to complain, I pay my money to watch the Top Boys as well as the Best of British on a MON & THU Night. I couldn't care less about CHAMP Clubs because CHAMP Clubs couldn't care less about PREM Clubs, It works both ways as the saying goes.

cant stand the sport, thats why ive only been going 60 years.

I wouldn't because I think his GSA would drop quite a bit if Foxhall was his home track. Don't think he'd be up for the challenge of getting to grips with Foxhall when he'll have bigger priorities in the back of his mind like hunting down Zmarzlik in the GP's again.

Well it certainly wouldn't work by TTTs logic because there wouldn't be any riders to sign cause they all quit to start doing a trade lol

Basically you don't like anyone else's opinions and kept losing your arguements so you gave up and blocked them? HAHA

You're missing out on some great content 👍🏻😁

Liars? Mate you have no idea or neither do I how much riders really earn? But like I've said riders that don't double up still come back! You can't argue with that. IL have what your having jesus. You really think we should tell riders to RETIRE do you? That literally kills British speedway . The NDL would simply die . Every rider started off somewhere. Literally doing it for fun. Investing time and money for the hope they one day can make it. So would you get rid of the NDL? The fact you think riders like Lambert should retire is an insult to him. He's been a great servant to British speedway over years. Promoting the sport by taking his bikes into schools and never giving up. Your head is completely in the sand regarding the current state of the sport in the country. Your just so happy to carry on as normal when there are so many issues right now. Clubs are closing down every year don't you realise that? Your happy with that are you? For riders to double up and bankrupt clubs ? You haven't still answered my questions have you? Or anyone else's? Typical champagne premiership fan.

I've had them on mute that's why. They simply log in every day to hate and take the pish out of everything related to British Speedway.

If they can't find a new no 1 then this looks as good as they can do
