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

Rory Schlein was the prime example as to what will happen to riders like Howarth and King if One Big League ever happened.

There are only a few established riders who do not double up. Those that don’t (putting aside those who ride in other countries in addition to UK) are by and large riders starting out. One league would not mean additional meetings because there would only be eight professional clubs (it’s the math of riders available).

Since he raced last season in Britain, he can't get the discount. He should return to Championship on his average from the NL, converted at the standard rate. Less the "British" discount..

They can stop throwing money down a drain and take up an apprenticeship / career / job outside of the Sport. You're totally fine with riders like Howarth and King losing the vast majority of their income and then basically calling them liars for saying that they'll retire if One Big League was to happen. I'll await your next flawed reply.

But there are so many riders who manage to ride a speedway bike and not double up leagues and still come back year after year. Why haven't they quit? Maybe it's because they are earning a decent income from speedway? Yes it's not much but if they pay was so bad they wouldn't bother at all. Howarth would be a fool to quit speedway because he couldn't ride in the premiership. The extra meetings in the championship plus a potential rise in crowds and TV deal would surely make it up for it. Plus he would be a heat leader. They can earn decent money. I think personally its just pure greed but I understand what your saying.

Well you may not buy it, but you need to consider the realty of what one league means in terms of earnings. Assuming rates of pay remain the same then one league would mean a rider such as Howarth would lose at best 35% of his current pay but in reality more likely 50%. So quite reasonable that in such circumstances a rider would need to quit the sport to take up full time employment and no, in today’s job market, unlike yesteryear there is far less opportunity for a family man like Kyle to double up with conventional employment and riding speedway.

And why just reply to my comments? Why not IainB or jcone44? Is it because there right and your wrong ? Let's see a constructive reply to them from you then.

What's that meant to mean? It's a perfectly good reply. You can't even answer or argue the points I've made along with a few others have made. So what happens when these championship riders who aren't good enough retire. Explain that one then? The truth is YOU CANT. Is that a better reply?

Can't come up with a constructive reply this time can you?

No comparison really, these motocross events really know how to put on a show .

The truth is you are simply part of the problem.

so by your logic when the prem is finished (which will probably be next year )everyone in the champ will have to retire..🤣

They have little interest in rider development down Ippo way with their single junior meeting... erm ever 😁

Somebody has to speak the truth. If some youngsters can't cut it in the CHAMP then they've got no chance of cutting it against much better opposition in the PREM. The ones who are good enough at CHAMP level, All get opportunities at PREM level.

I can't believe you've just said youngsters should quit if they can't cut it in the championship.....Shocking . So by your shameful logic if you ain't good enough just quit. There's already a rider shortage you'd just make it worse .

Lynn fans always enjoy their speedway also helps that the three lads named should be core England lads in 5-7 years so long as they avoid big smashes and aren't expected to jump to high to soon and have confidence smashed as we have seen with many English decent young prospects over the years.

Yes wasn't a great outcome when Rob couldn't name the fella who's supposed to be one of the saviours.

I can't recall a time where Howarth has been dropped by a PREM Club. Simon Lambert may as well quit if I'm being brutally honest, Youngsters who can't cut it in the CHAMP may as well quit too. Drew Kemp is lucky that Leicester exist because he's done nothing but cost Leicester trophies over the last couple of years and he's got a quitters mentality at PREM level tbh.
