Why the heck don't they just bite the bullet and just go to 1 professional league ? it is going to happen sooner rather than later, I would have thought it would be far easier to attract a TV company with a league that has more teams in it. The BSPL is again showing that it has it's head in the clouds by postponing the agm and delaying the inevitable.

That seems a bit contradictory. If they wanted to line their own pockets, surely the best way would be to stop the sport going into decline?

But it is true several clubs don't break even with the numbers of spectators coming through the gates, the sponsorship big or small helps to balance the books. Also,maybe more so in the past than now (due to financial rules) a speedway team was offset against a business to offset tax etc

the government do it.🤣

If only four other riders in the league have over an eight point average he could possibly increase his own... He did get a few "gimmes" when Becker was out, but he would have faced the other five eight point riders very often in Ht 13 and Ht 15... With one less to race this year I can see him again having a good season... (If there is a season for the top tier!!)

If that was true,  why would they continue to run the following season knowing they would loose money? Hardly sensible business projection is it ?
