Got to remember this will be a watered down league. If 36 for 6 riders then a few mid range guys will be out of jobs -

Yeah agreed 14/15 clubs is a lot, so maybe starting with the premiership would be a good start. I wonder if some sort of mobile app would help as it would make it easier to track fixtures and results and keep everything contained in one place - 
						
						As we are in the middle of the speculation/silly season…….. Assuming 36.0 for the top 5 and retention of the 2.5% British reduction for team building, then how about: Jason Doyle 7.86 Tom Brennan. 7.05 Adam Ellis 5.92 Dan Thompson 5.87 ……….. 26.70 That leaves a Bewley or Woffinden size hole on 8.64 and 8.45 respectively. You could also swap in Rew for Ellis or Thompson (not sure I would though). Just putting it out there.

						As I said, Good idea, but to create such a thing is far, far easier said than done and frankly it’s hard to believe the BSPA have the knowledge or the capacity to actually create such content on a weekly basis covering the activities of 14/15 clubs. Maybe they could consider farming out the whole production and marketing to a third party and maybe that’s where speedway futures comes in having found a suitable sponsor to cover suitable production & marketing costs?

That is for the people with the knowledge to decide, but we can't just keep blocking changes to the sport just because they cost money. People aren't just going to become fans of the sport for no reason. You need to make it easy to follow, easy to engage with, make it easier to see results and rider data so they can learn more and gain an interest in the sport. I would suggest making it free on YouTube and subsidising the cost via sponsoring of the videos. The main issue would be getting the footage itself, to edit and voice over a 25 minute YouTube video shouldn't be too difficult. Also having it on YouTube should make it accessible to a wide range of audiences and hopefully should recommend the content to fans of similar motorsports and grow an audience that way. In my opinion we are at the stage where things just need to be tried as otherwise the sport is going to slowly die.
