Cast1rn 464 Posted September 30, 2023 As we approach the end of the season, and the silly season approaches, what are we looking to build to for 2024 ? 40, 42, 38, 25? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheWellBehavedWorrall 289 Posted September 30, 2023 When I was a regular, team building couldn’t exceed a collective average of 45. Has that changed? If so, why? I’d assume lowering the average would somewhat lower quality. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I’d assume lowering the average would somewhat lower quality. 2022 it was 42, 2023 its 40 so I'm guessing we're waiting on the rolling of the chicken bones for 24 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Noelinho 922 Posted September 30, 2023 I would assume 40 for now. But they could decide anything at the AGM. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
RS50 359 Posted September 30, 2023 Could also depend on the possibility of the top two leagues joining together. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Biffa 84 Posted September 30, 2023 I think we might be down a little bit on average allowed, but would expect the champ to go similar to the Prem in 6 riders + a rising star/2 point rider/under 21 type of team build. Also going to depend on how many teams in each league. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends how pie eyed all the promoters get in Tenerife after that anything could happen. Edited September 30, 2023 by Mike0310 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

MartinBSN 617 Posted September 30, 2023 The biggest factor will be how many teams will be in the Championship. Heat leaders could be spread thin if rumours are to be believed Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Diablo 19 Posted September 30, 2023 Massive changes in British Speedway next year but hey I’ve said this the last few years Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lisa-colette 6,035 Posted September 30, 2023 How likely is this one league thing? Or are they going to stick with Prem and Champ, going with the rumour Birmingham are moving up, so would make Prem a 6 and Champ an 8 (assuming Edinburgh confirm). 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
