What about Northampton?
Fromafar replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
That might be the case,thought that’s was what they said earlier in the season.Find out soon No doubt.Crowd levels dipped so will maybe have reconsider the finances. -
Anyone know if there is any speedway in the uk next season ? The silence on all fronts is deafening

You could of course have two home, two away, and drop a competition (or maybe two 😱) and then have less disparity in the number of home meetings for each side. Rather than Berwick having 11 and Glasgow/Poole having something like 18, maybe everyone would have closer to 16. That would make a lot more sense. It's not like we get many shock winners of all the cups, sometimes we can't even be bothered to arrange the finals because it seems teams get bored of winning...

And it also means fans having to pay out a fair few quid in the same month... Workington suffered from this when they won the treble, with fans not attending each meeting... Having all the finals at the end of the season also gives no time to build crowd momentum on the back of any success, as the season just stops... Advertising yourself as (insert Competition name here), "Champions/Holders" can only spark interest locally in your next home meeting, and onwards through the rest of the season, I would have thought... I think completing the league first then the cups is the way to go, as advertising your self as "The Champions" for as many meetings as possible can only help crowd levels... And it also gives clubs well out of league contention early in the season a chance to still have meaningful matches until the end of the season, rather than "dead rubbers" which have no impact on play off positions...

I don’t actually know and I’m not sure he actually knows either, he is just a trouble maker for the sport and particularly cradley it’s a shame as a couple of points he makes about the sport are valid ones but he is best just ignored, I certainly wasn’t going to give him the publicity he craves on the podcast -
Good luck to Redcar in the Final you probably deserve something out of this season to add to the pairs.
-
Don’t need any suggestions,the rules were there.
-
One suggestion would be to look at the scores after heat 14 in both matches, i.e Glasgow having an advantage of an extra heat at home. This would've been an aggregate win for Redcar. The bizarre situation is, had the heat advantages been a tie, it would've been a ballot to decide who goes through, I can't think of a more unsatisfactory way to decide a tie.

Without putting you on the spot Dean what;s his beef you would have thought being an ex rider of the club he would be fully behind them ? No probs if you swerve the question if an answer puts you in a difficult position. -
Lets hope this LATEST disappointment spurs the Tigers on to win the League.But think Poole will have a ''Rain-off'' on Wednesday, giving them the Second Leg !!!!!
-
Not many people agree with you on that one. Just the Ref which is what counted
-
is it on BSN though.This Competition has not been so far.
-
Read the rules dinlo, nothing to do with Poole
-
Glad to hear all involved are ok,and on the mend. Rules are Rules,i dont think i have come across this one before,But surely this must inspire Tigers to go on and win the League,But whats the betting Poole match will be called off, so they have the second leg at Home.

Imagine seven figure league sponsorship deal announced with Skybet, Eddie Hearn taking over as commander and chief, an eight strong top league once home and away with all the top men back over, 12 strong second division once home and away, racing on the best nights for the public not the riders, then we woke up
