The rest should shape up or ship out and focus on lower level or amateur racing. Think if the rest ship out a league of 2 won't be very good. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Premiership is in a hole and they seem to have a very large digger. No Nicki P, No Rohan Tungate... What's Lidsey doing, Bewley, NIKI and no doubt others too.

Fair play to those clubs that can afford to honour those deals. Attendances could be halved by the time speedway gets going again. This country is going to be in the grip of a major recession.

RS50 359 Posted January 11, 2021 I suspect that the main reason the AGM delayed is the withdrawal of Swindon for 2021. Are six teams enough for a Premiership? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Midland Red 2,383 Posted January 11, 2021 Why even consider a Premiership. If there’s any league racing, it will surely be one league of teams that are able/willing to operate 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

cinderfella 865 Posted January 11, 2021 The way things are going all professional sport is going to be put on hold. Just look at the number of soccer or rugby teams that have players test positive for C19 especially after trips abroad. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

We know it’s Poole and with Swindons withdrawal the TV contract is down the Swanny so the weeks delay of the AGM will have given them time to come up with a plan B scenario...... not. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
