    For someone that keeps telling us he’s on holiday Karen Worrall does a lot of whinging on social media for somebody who is supposedly done with the sport.

    It’s exactly what he’s after just attention… people should just ignore him, the more people comment on his posts the more tripe he’ll write.

    Ablitt & Kemp???

    Ablitt who they had for one season gave him all the difficult heats and then didn’t use him the following year. Anders Rowe this year improves his average not needed the second year. I don’t but into this oh his average doesn’t fit if you want to keep a rider enough you’ll find a way to fit him into your side.

    Are Bournemouth building a new stadium, as they could get relegated this season, & wouldn't fill a new stadium in the Championship ?

    100% this mainly because they are in the premiership they are likely to sell out every week, if they got relegated you’d lose some of the crowd as many teams do when they drop out of the premier league.

    Along with Nicki P.

    Haha, mine was slightly in jest but according to bjarnes social media he is building a bike up with the caption ready for a comeback so was just putting 2 + 2 together he’d easily still do a job in the championship imo.

    Why doesn’t he give a full and true explanation of every stage of events from his side start to finish and also go through legal proceedings for said loss of earnings if he’s done no wrong? Instead he’s acting more of a arrogant to55er by that statement he’s put out.

    You would think rather than Young improving riders like Anders being encouraged to improve as he has, they will in all likelihood find themselves frozen out.

    Lowering the points limit will mean young improving British riders like Anders on the 5-6 point average bracket will struggle to find a team spot , madness.

    All it Will encourage is other promising riders lucky enough to get a place next season were they will manipulate there average.

    No wonder him and Kemp put there eggs in the polish u24 basket nobody wanted either of them until injuries occurred they both improve there average and could perhaps be unemployable crazy really.

    Its hilarious how certain Poole fans think no rider would ever want to leave them!

    The meltdown if this actually happens would be hilarious! Poole got Lawson for Basso last season maybe Glasgow could throw in Ksiezak for the cooks if he’s still an asset haha.

    could you please enlighten me to who is removing a league as i understand it is still there but owners of clubs are saying its not viable and are not prepared to run . 

    Didn’t the bspl punish the iow for holding Nora meetings as well as Kent last season? The rate clubs are closing right now the bspl should be doing everything to help them to ensure we actually have a future sport but no they do the opposite.

    Thank you, I'm pleased.

    I'm not sure predicting a rider, available on 4.10, and who's averaged:

    2017 - 7.10

    2018 - 6.80

    2019 - 7.39

    2021 - 6.58

    adding 2 points to his average in a weaker league is my finest material, but I'm pleased nevertheless.

    You keep thinking mainly due to his past he should easily add to his 4 average but his average has only went one way the last couple of years which is a bit of a worry imo.

    The independent tracks could probably run under Nora but the vindictive BSPL would never let any team racing in one or the other leagues have another team compete in Nora even though most of the teams only rent the track and if the owners of the track want to stage an event for extra income, the BSPL would pull the plug on the tenant racing under their term who shares the circuit. It really needs someone with balls to take on the cowboys in the BSPL/BSPA. On another note, could the Panthers track share at Mildenhall for one season or would the cowboys in charge object? 

    It’s frankly ridiculous in this day and age where clubs are closing left right and Centre what do they do decide to remove a league unbelievable really but we shouldn’t at all be surprised by the clowns who run this sport.

  11. Could Kent, mildehall and say Oxford not join iow and create a mini nora league for example and effectively stick two fingers up at the bspl? Could the bspl actually do anything to stop this? We’ve seen in the past I think Scott Nicholls threaten to sue the bspa when they wouldn’t allow him to double down. The bspl don’t really do anything to help the current ndl clubs survive so why shouldn’t they run against the bspl. 

    I fail to see how any promising rider or any rider for that matter would be able to climb the speedway ladder without some sort of ndl or a training league. 

    Could say for example Glasgow, Edinburgh and Berwick form a Scottish side to also join the Nora league and hold a few home matches at each track during the season? Surely that would spread the cost.


  12. Always wondered why should the championship continue to be the fall guys for the complete lack of ability the top league has in running its own show. It’s always been a strong league teams used to have 2/3 big hitters, why should this league be watered down because the top league peed the sky money on the gp stars of years gone by.

  13. So is it definitely a done deal that Birmingham are moving up to the premiership? If so I think it’s a crazy decision personally all they’ve done is complain they don’t get numbers through the gate as it is so they decide to move up a league where rider wages will be more expensive than in the championship… if they are banking on getting a few hundred fans from wolves then that’s such a risky strategy I hope it works out for them but I personally can’t see it ending well at all.
