Bartlomiej Kowalski signs for Leszno for 2027. -
I agree, it's the most sensible option and proved the format works with lots of excitement in 2026. The top league on the other hand. Well 1/2 promoters in particular continue to kid themselves that paying for top stars and having them face each other 8 times a season is a good product.

Championship Season Tickets 2027

Splash out on a couple at least - the Championship is a super competitive league that is worth watching! -
-
The mascot apparently 😂

Is that a clean shaven Russell Brand pinning someone down against their will ?
-
Unless they’re the Man City of speedway I can’t see it

Who will Ipswich unveil next, Kurtz?

My issue isn’t the competitiveness either. You’ll always get season’s where it’s uncompetitive and one team is a standout and dominates, I haven’t an issue with that. My issue is, and has always been, the integrity of a league where four teams compile their teams before Christmas, while two teams are not even confirmed as competing until February and then have to hastily assemble teams of misfits. You could actually add a third, even Sheffield didn’t confirm themselves as running until January! That is NOT a level playing field and the whole season was a mess as a result. In fairness, not all Belle Vue supporters are completely blinkered and biased. There were a couple on here who admitted the victory just didn’t feel right and they couldn’t get much satisfaction out of it (probably to the annoyance of their fellow posters) and that’s to their credit. Not once have I ever said anything was Belle Vue’s fault either, it obviously wasn’t. But let’s not pretend it was no different to any other season ffs.

Fairer for yous lot because you’ve got a couple of big hitters again, meaning you won’t throw the towel in after a third of the season
-
How is it "fairer"?... Northampton and KL won't have a big hitting No1, due to no one of that level wanting to ride over here. Ipswich will have two, like the Aces did last year . Is that "fair?".. And last season Ipswich, regardless of the takeover, basically only missed out on Jason Doyle as, same again, no other top level riders wanted to come over... Meaning they couldn't have signed anyone anyway... And they still ended up with two of the top eight riders in the averages, so, didn't do too bad... The only "fair system" is to distribute the top level riders to one per team, as currently, the teams with two have a big advantage in heats 13 and 15, (as the Aces showed often last season)... Kurtz, Doyle, Bewley, J Holder, Fricke and Douglas should all be the No1's if you want "fairness"... And it would mean a much more competitive sport..

You’re right about last year . Because you lot gave up after a couple of months. Of course the year before was fairer when you came out on top. Obvious winners in June? What a sad state of affairs when so called professional teams give in so soon because of what is likely to happen. Short changing supporters in the process. Better off in keeping trying till the end . Who knows what can happen in play offs . Injuries, bad decisions etc
-
Nobody is talking about weaker or stronger We are talking about competitive You could have a league with no top riders but if it was competitive then it’s competitive You won last season fairly but it wasn’t a good season When we won it in 1998 it was boring at times
-
Belle Vue fans aren’t the most intelligent lol Last season was not competitive from June onwards that’s a fact The season before was more competitive as all 4 play off teams were capable of winning the league If this season Ipswich or Leicester are obvious winners by June then 2027 won’t be competitive either Belle Vue were deserved champions last season nothing to do with the league strength like they keep saying …. I’m talking about a close exciting season Last season wasn’t its not rocket science unless you are from Manchester

So where’s the money coming from to fund 2 Home 2 Away ? Some people just don’t get it: speedway is on its knees, but you still want more – ffs, get real.
-
It’ll have the strongest reserves in the league which is a plus, Castange isn’t an exciting signing but probably a logical one. It’ll be really interesting to see how they get on vs an Oxford type side, if Cairns can make the leap to a number 5 then it could be very strong, could be a big ask for him to as we’ve seen plenty of riders struggle to take the number 5, like Harrison, Rowe and even Zach at first! Plus more I’m sure.

Championship Statement
ASpeedwayfan replied to Colsimmo58's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Nice idea and makes sense. So no chance it’ll happen I’m afraid -
Again, selective guff. Nobody has said next year will be any stronger or weaker, literally nobody. But it will be FAIRER. You seem to like dancing around the whole point but carry on.
