All Sheffield need to do is gate, trouble is none of them can. Yet another Beaumont Park borefest looms...........

The Championship doesn't have a "TV deal" as such, so no need for Play-offs 😛🤣

I don't disagree with you as I prefer the top of the league system, but while Play Offs attract bigger crowds and any TV deal demands it then they are here to stay.

hence why occasionally you have to be prepared to be a bit ruthless to get to the very top - Nielsen was the classic example - Gundersen was the nicer chap but Nielsen was prepared to stuff you to get what he wanted hence why he was the more successful of the two, for the record I preferred Gundersen - lovely fella! I still love the picture i had taken with him at Cradley one saturday night - not long after that he was injured never to ride again!

You will never have integrity as long as you have the 'Play Off' system. No team should have to win the League twice - it makes it a joke. Getting rid of the 'Play Offs' would also mean less fixtures at the end of the Season, meaning that the Leagues would finish earlier and fixture congestion would not be so much of a problem. Remember, when Speedway started there were no 'Play  Offs' and it survived, some may say thrived. Not thriving now though - is it?

Maybe, but it’s also about the variety of riders in the heats for me. The 6 rider team format is bad enough, but at least at international level you got 18 heats. 5 rider teams is only 14 heats I believe so lose,lose🤷‍♂️. Like I said though just my opinion.
