They will just play the long game... In a sport with such an ageing demographic, the more the years go by the older those who attended become, and the less likely they remain in such health to attend once more... Plus, you also have to ask, where are the riders going to come from? 15 teams share riders now and struggle when replacements are needed.. Will riders be allowed to sign for two teams in the same division? It is UK Speedway so you never know... !!! If the sport was thriving then you would imagine it would be much easier to fight off developers, as there would be a clear demand for it, unfortunately, there isn't quite that currently... You have to wish them all the best in their endeavours, a huge challenge, but they have come this far, which is, in itself, a fair achievement...

To live over here, I presume the Aussies would need to work over here too?... That might keep a few decent riders if so... Riders like Pickering, Masters, Z Cook, Cairns, McDiarmid, Wright, Flint, D Thompson, and a fair few others, also won't be able to DU if they ride in Poland... A very different landscape next season if Poland have their way... I can see the top league over here going towards the Danish model, ie less riders per team but more rides each so earnings can be maximised. Maybe two home and two away too to give riders more meetings than Sweden and Denmark..

We also have too much advantage at Kings Lynn, Northampton, Leicester (if our best away rider had stayed fit) & historically Ipswich.
