Zielona Gora imo, Think it's a side that's got potential to be a big spoiler in 2026, Kubera & Madsen is a strong spearhead and Lebedevs is a rider who gets better with every year imo. Think Grudziadz have the potential to take a step back in 2026, Did Drabik and MJJ just have freak seasons in 2025 where they both rode above their level? Leszno are relying heavily on Parnitskyi imo, Outside of Nazar the team isn't much to shout about imo, It's basically most of the team that got relegated during their last stint in the Ekstraliga. -
Well two weeks ago I wouldn't hesitate in making Glasgow favourites, but the recent run of Redcar matches has been good for Poole building confidence and giving them momentum. Sure Nagel and Thompson etc are a potential threat, but their performances also depend on how Poole let them ride. Should be a great contest, hoping for a good result at Wimborne Road, a plus 12 lead would be a real result for Poole.

Top end clubs more evenly spread granted but for a league that's branded BITW you really shouldn't be seeing team line-ups like the ones Czestochowa and Gorzow are putting out. British Speedway is declining but Poland is going the exact same way as of late with various clubs hitting financial issues and needing handouts just to take to the track. Shame because it's the sport in the world, Hopefully the Sport can thrive again in the near future. -
Grand Final 2nd leg Ipswich vs Leicester
mikebv replied to Aries's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It's interesting that those who run Speedway as a "stand alone" business seem to do quite well each season... Generally much better than those who run it as an expensive hobby, or get it subsidised by stock cars... Maybe when it is your day to day income stream it focuses the mind more? A few more like Chris Louis and the sport would be in much better shape... -

GP line-up for 2026
mikebv replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
They need to get a bit WWE.... Tai shouting into the camera, "Arm gonna fence the ass off you Zmarzlik!"... Doyley telling Madsen "Yer gonna wish you hadn't qualified, bacon head!".. Dan screaming to Jack Holder, "With all due respect Jack, I hope we have a really good meeting and some great races against each other, and may the best man win'.. Well, maybe not the last one... Etc. Etc. Etc. -

Hopefully, if Dan Bewley does ride for Ipswich next year, he'll have learned to spell it correctly.๐ -

Flog the promotion to some new fool seems to be the usual answer. -

I'm not saying he's going to single handedly revive the SGP series, but it's currently at its lowest ever ebb and there's not a single rider in the series they can hang their promotional hat on... Dan Bewley, as good as he is, is all a bit nicey nicey when interviewed, Robert Lambert a bit boring and neither have an individual World Championship to their name... and you can forget the rest although Jack Holder does seem to have something about him. There's only 3 World Champions in the 2026 series and 2 of them are wild cards and the other one can't speak English... I mean what do you do with that as a promoter? -

ShanoXtra replied to Aries's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Torun would deffo not have a say on whether he rides or not, any rider can choose any league they want, itโs purely down to Emil and how itโs a lot easier to get to Scandinavia from Poland than it is to fly to UK or if he can get another visa. -
Just a few weeks ago it was looking like being a great season for Redcar on form, being in all three finals a real possibly, and dreams of doing the Treble. But in sport momentum and handling pressure are key to success. Redcar buckled and Poole grew stronger, making Glasgow's task even harder now. Pretty sure the remaining finals will both be Poole vs Glasgow.

Take a few pictures of the Ipswich crowd on Thursday to the next council meeting. That proves that speedway does still have a following & isnโt dead. -

Iโm not sure the work visa would be the issue as far as Emil is concerned. I think itโs more to do with if Emil wants to do it again and/or Torun position on it. -

Speaking as a neutral with a somewhat 'helicopter view' of the sport (tho I cheered out loud when Dan won SGP rounds & GB won the SONs), I'm pleased for Chris Louis & all at Ipswich. They obv did a lot of promotion down Foxhall way going by the huge crowd, hearing rock music played on the PA (did anyone else notice Rock & Roll All Nite by Kiss ?)+ the flame pots on the centre green, the meeting looked an occasion where one would say "I wish I'da bin there". That's how it's done, good stuff.... -

Why do you say that? SGP has/is a brand, GB Speedway Team is a brand... and pretty much nobody outside of the sport are aware of them. -
Just heading back to home after great Poole win. On our previous visits, the home fans have been very good. However the unsportsmanlike booing every time our super dane came to track after the racing incident was totally out of keeping. Hope this was just a one off. See you all next year. Kevin and Jan. โ ๏ธ

Although itโs potentially the weakest Iโd say it has the option to be the most competitive because itโs more evenly spread. you know whyโฆ British speedway is taking over ๐ all this big money coming in ๐ sorry I just woke up from my dream!
