Kvech has improved this season but probably won’t get a Wild Card.

From what I'm hearing at the moment, it'll NOT be a one league structure. However it's still only August with another 2 months or so to the AGM, so anything can still change.....!

I’d be surprised to see Belle Vue come out on top this season for the simple reason that their top two riders are fighting for 1st and 3rd in the world championship, whereas the other 3 teams top end have far less to go for , except Fricke for next year’s series. Their minds have got to be on that fact , maybe one less risk taken than usual.

Total garbage …. but you made your point well

Scorpions are ok keeping 2 or 3 second strings because every team needs them but they currently have a team of second strings and reserves. They need one or preferably two genuine heat leaders a 2 point junior and fill the rest with second strings with hopefully a couple who are likely to increase their average.

I’d take Lambert as a reserve at Berwick.

I dont rate BZ at all really ..the best in a really poor era .. his titles might say otherwise but i dont even in the top ten.and i doubt he would have won a world title in another era.

They also showed that report on BBC South Today on Friday I think it was.

Yes keep the play offs,The top of the league at the end of the season should be called something like the league winners and the play offs can be called the play off winners or something along those lines.

Riders won`t stand for only one league.

Not sure i agree with that. Get more regular fans if weekly home speedway meetings. I remember when Poole were in the Prem and they did one week at home and next week away. Didn't really work, people get out of the habit.

Just fed up of being treated like dirt by certain people. And if wasn't for all the volunteers there would be no speedway for them.

That's a shame but I'm sure you must have very good reasons for thinking like that and if your not enjoying your role then it's understandable

Get a new governing body in and out all the dead wood

Imo 2 home 2 away looks good but clubs won't want it, as most losing money, bar a couple of meetings, so if 2 home 2 away, that's more money lost, if 1 home 1 away means less potential loses, and sponsorship could make up the small difference, sometimes less is more, should be home 1 week away the other week, 2/3 meetings at home a month from may to August

For what it’s worth here my thoughts on Championship.Scrap BsN Trophy 2home2away fixtures K0 Cup.Guests only for injury.Nothing for riders missing while riding abroad (FIM events excluded) No8 or NDL rider only.Top 4 Play Off.Time limit applied to rain offs or points awarded.(TinHat on).

His reactions to situations are the best I have ever seen... That is why he goes into places that others would never dare to.... Early in his career I thought he was being, at times, reckless, and would eventually pay dearly for his high risk, high reward strategy... Now, I realise he was (is) just very special so was supremely confident he could handle these situations.. I would say only Trick is up there with such lightening reactions where they both could almost lock up to avoid incidents, but still keep momentum and speed... You can never accurately say who is the best ever, given so many variables down the years, but he is certainly a very special talent...

Good god no. An injury to a rider and you have the same pair of riders out in every other heat. One league will also have a huge diversity in the standard of riders. And playoffs keep seasons alive for more teams.

Only takes a crash/injury/exclusion etc. Weather, especially at Vojens in September could have a huge bearing... anyway it'd be nice to know in advance what happens in a tie instead of waiting for the results of an impromptu FIM Jury meeting behind closed doors and having Armando Castanga trying to explain things to everybody 😂

People interested in all 3 leagues would look in all prem, champ and nl sections anyway?

Yes, of course, there are lots of ways a tie could happen. The point I was making was the unlikelihood of them happening, i.e that at least one would fail to reach the final and the other finish fourth.

This subject ranges far beyond the Championship. There is already a similar topic running in "Speedway News and Discussions" Maybe the above comments and contributions could be transferred, and people interested in all three leagues couild follow it?
