Premiership race nights.

Recommended Posts

If Belle Vue rode on Saturday nights I'd happily make the trip up there to watch every week despite living less than a mile and half away from the Leicester track.

Sheffield will be in whatever league rides on a Thursday night, simple as that

Maybe teams with this type of limitation should be considered doubtful for eligibility to compete in the “top-flight”.

That should get rid of Sheffield, Ipswich and Wolves then

All tracks have a night they like to ride on, its the night the fans are used to attending, when they get the highest gate, look what happened to Rye House when they swapped nights to suit what league they were in

So be it.
Of course it will not happen because too much self interest is involved coupled with a distinct lack of vision on what’s required to get British Speedway on the up.

So you want to get rid of half the top league?

3 teams should be good, could run as a three team tournament at every track every week, that should work

The Russian league struggled along with 3 teams in 2015 and 2016.

Maybe the BSPL could check in with them for some guidance :D

Not get rid. “Replace”  with clubs who have the ability to be more flexible regarding race night availability - That is Amongst other criteria which should be in place to ensure the correct standard of quality is applied to form a “top league”
