Yes sport teams have many varied structures for sure. And in many ways speedway is unique. But the sport in the UK is sadly going down a whirlpool of despair and something drastic is required to avoid a complete disaster - and in my view I see one division as worth trying. Worth trying is all I'm saying. BTW I think one bad influence is the GP system. One example of how it affected Workington was when Stoney qualified as a GP rider. We then realised that for several Saturday nights a guest rider would appear at Derwent Park to cover for Stoney - I think we got very accustomed to seeing Sean Wilson as a regular Comet. OK he scored well but personally I missed my fix of Carl Stonehewer speedway and I wasn't alone with that.

Not for me. While the tactical side of things is interesting to an extent I want to see as few delays as possible between heats. Chopping and changing riders promotes multiple heats in a row for individual riders and prolonged intervals between those heats.

Let's get back to the main thread. The topic is Poole V Glasgow. Kevin and Jan are going to Poole on Wednesday, travelling from Somerset. Then up to Glasgow to see the best fans we have met and then to Redcar. Then down to Poole before heading back to Somerset. Hope to see lbw in our travels.
