DiamondsRock 79 Posted November 9, 2014 So the fours would have to run in October? Why not? A season long qualification would add more meaning to them, and also unlike playoffs could be done and dusted in one meeting. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I prefer having an afternoon's speedway in July/August rather than in the dog days of October. Even if it rains, it's warmer rain. Speedway in October is bleak.

Paulco 7,077 Posted November 11, 2014 Agree with you Paul. Diamonds got Belle Vue in 1992, losing 39-51, but we had to go with R/R for Scott Norman. I think Glasgow got Reading, did they not, with Todd Wiltshire, David Mullett, Ray Morton et al? The other thing is, as to the 3 leagues all in a hat suggestion, is the arguments as to who would ride for which club, with all the doubling up/down/sideways/diagonally! It makes the whole idea a non-starter. We were the only 2nd tier side to win in 1992 , beating Cradley 46-44 . We lost 42-48 to Ipswich in the next round Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
