Harris would be a concern as it seems he is not at his best currently, I seem to recall he has had some good scores there and Fricke is pretty much unbeatable there. - Today

look how its turned out lowering the points limit year on year, massive gaps in team qualities, so why not try something different -

if there was one league it automatically makes it a top league. Its the only way to go if you ask me, 45 points limit for 7 riders is absolute insanity and will see even more of a gap than there already is. -

I’m more interested in the German clown getting sacked after last night’s shambles. My interest in speedway will only return when some jeopardy is added to the sport and add meaning to most meetings. Won’t hold my breath though -

I think its more likely to be the other way round. Cooper has done well so far at 4, don't think it makes a huge amount of difference anyway personally. Harris at 5 concerns me a bit, if its mega slick as it usually is when Lynn visit he'll struggle. As always we have to make good starts, don't and we'll get marmalised. -

The preview on bspa site says if fit, so have you seen somewhere else that he is definitely back tonight? -

And keep them to a minimum. R/R has to be compulsory apart from for your number 1 or a reserve, but replace reserves with unattached Champ riders. And on the Championship don't allow riders like McDairmid to sign in the first place if they are never going to be here. -

I can only see an easy home win for the Lions tonight. But I hope its closer than I fear. -

This looks set for a home victory but a close meeting with most probably the win being secured by heat 14 maybe even a last heat decider. -

Yes strange, you would think r/r at 2 also Kings Lynn have Cooper at 4 when you think he should be at 2. Maybe having Dan T at 2 is because Kvech is at 2. -

2026 as been a hard watch and that started from november 25, a winter of discontent not knowing what structure will be, lost lots of fans before a wheel was even turned, and they not done anything to entice them back. i remember dicko saying they will be sorting 2027 out very early during the seasoon, well we are nearer the end of the season and nothing about 27 as been mentioned, set out a plan that fans believe in and you might just entice these people back, fans are out there, thats the frustrating thing. before they start trying to bring new fans in they need to bring back the fans that have walked away, start of by securing a TV deal, thats a masisve loss of money for the clubs, plus people easily forget the sport is still going when all the domestic league racing is behind a paywall that only existing fans know about. no one knows the figures of BSN or the clubs private streams but they are deffo having an impact on attendances, yes clubs are still getting money with them watching at home but they lose out on parking money, food and drink and merchandise sales, so they must be taking a massive financial kick in the bollocks with it. scrap streaming need a new vision, Rob Godfrey has to stand down, which i think will be this year, if they can, while hes not everybodys cup of team, and tbh, i see him as a guy that will leave the sport and never be seen again, but try tempt Tai to run the sport in uk, hes got no ties with any club, and we know his marketing value is very good. leads me perfectly to marketing, or lack of it, constantly asking fans to spread the word about speedway, i think most fans do that anyway but your job as a promotor is to promote, and it seems no one does, Plymouth are doing a fanstastic job of it. that old saying, speculate to accumulate, advertising is not cheap but if it gets you an extra 100 people through the door at £25 thats £2,500 extra every week, add on top of that drinks and other sales. Ask Mark Phillips what hes doing and plymouth and follow his ideas, he seems to be upping his crowd. dont do one league, every sport needs a top league to sell, put the points limit up and go back to the old style , 45 point limit for 7 riders, scrap the RS and put it in the champ. prepare your tracks better and you will see an influx of riders return, riders want to race uk but they dont trust track prep when you speak to them or hear what they have to say on various podcasts. season tickets should be discounted like ipswich have done. sell the season ticket valued at £20 per match, and give them the option to pay monthly, starting from november, atmosphere is missing totally, each track have a certain area in the stadium where fans can congregate and make some noise, start meetings on time, and make sure they last no more than 90 minutes (crashes dependent) regular fixtures, far to many teams going 4-5 weeks without a home match, should be 2 weeks at most re-brand the play offs, i like the Denmark way of doing it, whoever finishes top of regular season ride the final at there track in a 4TT, or make it top team straight to the final and 2nd and 3rd team if a play off tie for the final we all want weekend racing, but we just cant do that unfortunately, the top league need to ride all matches on Mondays, this is uk race night, there will be no clashes with any team in europe and gives clubs' full availability to all riders fort every match, dont scrap the guests but limit the amount of times you can use a guest, -

My record this year: Klint testimonial- racing curtailed Lynn home meeting - off because it might rain. Young Stars off - air fence did a runner Lynn v Northampton-dreadful in terms of racing Y Stars - off. Track staff ill. My patience has been sorely tried. 8 hrs round trip but I stay in hotel and hope for seeing two meetings in 3 days. I have scrubbed Young Stars from now on. Been had twice - there won’t be a third time. As to next year, there needs to be big changes for me to spend the money I have this year for little return. -
Fact or gossip ? The latest accounts published on companies house (up to September 2025) show an improved financial position compared to the previous year.

But. It’s not just Poland but also Sweden, Czech & Denmark that riders who ride in the UK also race. So to go to one uk league with meetings throughout the week would mean all those riders giving uk a miss. The consequence being The number of riders available including NDL would be circa forty ie enough for six or seven teams for the whole of the Uk meaning a massive dilution of the sport. -

No he can’t. However he is on an upward trend performance wise and it won’t be long before he moves on from being an unused sub.
