I think some sort of session ticket will get rushed out just before Christmas once clubs remember that that is how their clubs are funded

And with luck if something along those lines happen it will only reinforce Coleman’s desire for independent governance. This guy is truly last chance saloon for British Speedway.

Given only one of those clubs is still running you must be a bad luck charm. Can you please stop interacting with any other clubs fans on here with immediate effect!

You normally need them 😂

Typical speedway unbelievable chaos at management level and they wonder what's up with the sport !!!!

Surprised you don't know 😄 you seem to post a lot of " in the know stuff " 😜

Anywhere is a far trek from Plymouth 😜

Laguta and Sayfutdinov

Believe so, and not RL but close.

Both of those should be high up on Lynn's and Northamptons shopping list Phil if both are forced to run without number one's.

Agreed wishing them all the best, still think championship would be a more sensible option for them given they should have more flexibility on operating night, plus lower operating costs whilst they guage if ther is still an appetite for speedway at the stadium (hopefully there is).

Still wouldn’t start as favourites! Wait til you see the Leicester team.

Yes. Deffo. If a club dont sign thorsell or rasmus jensen on a 4.5 average then its the other clubs fault for not picking up KN

If Nilsson is 4.5 then give Ippo the title now!! 😀

IF Nilsson is on 4.5, didn't other team's have the opportunity to tempt him over?

It wouldn't be a shock would it??. Obviously nothing has been confirmed yet, however, it does look like a current GP rider is being assessed as just 50% better than a RS... A quite ludicrous situation, however, as with so many things they do, they paint themselves into a corner by over complicating things, and end up adding more and more additions for what is, after all, just a team sport... If only they spent as much time promoting and marketing the sport as they do writing, and rewriting, rules and regs...

Said on the King press release more in the coming days and weeks so they’re obviously going to spread out the announcements. Probably get another during the week.

Any predictions for the team line up next season??

Oxford are the stronger top 3, what progress Flint, Thompson and Kileen do or don't make will determine who is the stronger top 4. The big question is what back up can these clubs give their top 4? Big pressure on the top 4 to deliver heat wins unless they can find a bottom 3 to punch above their weight. Both could lose a lot of 5-1s in heats 2 and 8, putting pressure on their 3 and 4 pairing to deliver heat advantages to get them in position to win in heats 13 and 15. I suspect that both are too top heavy to win the playoffs.

It's not easy to judge Riss as he's had a few illness effected seasons, but given his previous scores for Oxford, seems a worthwhile pick as a second string on his reduced converted average. It's also less risky being signed by a Prem club than a Champ club (same scenario as Craig Cook) as its easier to find a spare second string for the Prem, than a heat leader for the Champ.

Definitely someone with that kind of name in the past get some stuff right as an "in the know" Hopefully find out soon, when we reckon next announcement?

010.2.3 Amended MA’s With the approval of the BSP LTD GC or Directors for: - a) riders who have been absent from British Speedway racing for more than 3 seasons (the table in 10.2.2 will be used as a reference, the MA may be increased or decreased) Kim has been away for more than 3 seasons. The BSP Ltd will use table 10.2.2 for reference. Kim’s average may be increased. Nothing needs rewriting or if it does, please advise. I’d be more than happy for Ipswich to included 37 year old (at the start of the season) Kim in their squad.

It seems certain people know who grmek is signing for and how much he's being paid,amazing how they find this stuff out.

I don't like the rule as it benefits riders who "abandon" British Speedway rather than the ones who race every season. I could understand increasing an average as a rider may have improved, but wouldn't lower aves.
