Sounds like they have the type of deep pockets required Flagrag. -
More likely they would be the club owners than Team Sponsors but could do both as very successful business men who are expanding into new markets like offering deluxe yacht charters out of Marbella, Purchasing an aircraft for hire

Oh but it is, and “ several clubs “ is more than there is in the league. -
I'm not infurated mate, I just think it's time for change. Multiple BSF members are calling for PREM Clubs to be forced down into 1 Big League and that's fine because it's their opinion and I respect it even though I disagree. I'm just countering that opinion with an opinion of my own that results in the boot being on the other foot in forcing top end CHAMP Clubs to move up. At the end of the day both arguments lead to Clubs being forced into a situation that they don't want to be in.

As I said , it won’t happen (at least hope not) so don’t worry. However, from an economic point of view and the current state of UK speedway the reality is only 8 or possibly 9 top flight clubs are plausible. or as an alternative keep the same number of clubs running, and accept that doubling up is an inevitable requirement to satisfy need for two leagues (at least) to co-exist. So the options are. A. 1 major league of eight and a feeder/development league. Or B. 2 leagues virtually “as per 2025” with sufficient number of teams in the top flight to give it & the sport credibility. As I understand it, at present, the BSPA are unable to create a viable way forward to deliver option B due to the self serving intransigence of a few members to accept change. Some would call it an impasse hence why more time required for further discussions to help those self serving promoters to come to their senses. If not then the development of option A becomes the only possible solution with the ensuing armageddon (which hopefully nobody wants) ensuring the survival of only the fittest & willing promotions. Incidentally those contracts already agreed and exchanged between riders & clubs for 2026 would become null & void.
