Norfolk Bear 251 Posted August 14, 2017 Sheffield deserved their victory, my beef is a general speedway one Guests . & Double ups --- Stop them altogether, they are killing the sport, if riders want extra rides then go back to 13 heats , bring back second halves , maybe get some sponsorship, bring back the Gold & Silver helmet . One league with some measure of rider control , don't say there are not enough riders, plenty available.. What will the situation be when Sheffield win this League & in the play off will have to ride against their sister promotion at Leicester ? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The riders you presumably are referring to are presumably the juniors in the National League teams, and who would significantly reduced the standard we currently enjoy. You can't please everyone of course, but the choice is Guests and DU's with current strength teams, or, raw riders getting stuffed and destroyed and all confidence lost, and seeing teams way below current stands. Averages would be farcical, given the same logic with the EL draft system, which was a success for a little while till the averages were wrecked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
