Pirates Of Poole 761 Posted October 17, 2015 (edited) What a joke the BSPA are! They make the rules, simply make the change and bring it forward confirming new officials ! They don't want any outside influence so should be easy. All this rubbish about canf confirm a new chairman until early November, who brought that rule in the BSPA! So they can change it and bring it forward. We won't see any signings until November as the clubs will be worried the rules will change.

Panthers89 1,922 Posted October 17, 2015 Love how the Swedes announce the rules months before the season starts, we seem to rush it through right near the start, ridiculous. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
one of clubs 116 Posted October 17, 2015 The only thing I expect to see is the rules being adjusted to suit one particular club, and not for the good of the sport as a whole. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Ghostwalker 1,859 Posted October 17, 2015 Love how the Swedes announce the rules months before the season starts, we seem to rush it through right near the start, ridiculous. ...and here there are complaints that the rules are released too close to the next season or at least too close to the squad declaration deadline. I also think that 2 months notice is a little too short when it comes to things that directly affects the squad/team assembly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

scaramanga 904 Posted October 18, 2015 So whats the point of an early AGM if they are not going to announce anything till the first week in November. If there's no offfical statement clubs cant get on with anything in case theres any last minute changes Does anyone know when the National League AGM is?, could be a few new teams in the league next year which is all good! actually they have maybe learned from the past maybe they have decided what route they want to take send everyone away and come back in a couple of weeks to discuss why it wont work Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

If there's no offfical statement clubs cant get on with anything in case theres any last minute changes Is this any different to previous years? I thought they'd had pre-AGMs for several years now, it's just that they're telling the public now. And since they've got to hold another meeting to vote in the chairman and committee, which is the 'must attend or you're out' one? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And since they've got to hold another meeting to vote in the chairman and committee, which is the 'must attend or you're out' one? They made a point of stating after last years AGM that this year they were bringing forward the AGM by "at least a month" so clubs could get on with signing riders before they disappeared for the winter. So I don't think this is a pre-AGM as such, or is it? Who knows with this lot! Edited October 18, 2015 by Hong Kong Phooey Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So I don't think this is a pre-AGM as such, or is it? Who knows with this lot! This is THE AGM but although they voted last year to bring it forward, it seems they forgot that their constitution only allows them to vote in November and didn't change that as I'm sure they could have at the time.

E I Addio 15,845 Posted October 18, 2015 According to a new announcement on the Lakeside website there is a cooling off period before any announcements, and reading between the lines it seems to be due to seeing who will be prepared to sign up to the EDR next year. However Jon Cook and Neil Vatcher say they have enough information to start signing three or four riders plus of course AJ who has already said he is coming. Every other promotion must presumably be in the same boat and able to start signing riders if they have not already done so. I don't know what people are moaning about..99% couldn't particularly care who the new chairman or MC are going to be, as it will make no difference till the season starts, we are going to have details of any major rule changes around 2-3 weeks earlier than normal and team announcements are likely to follow .
