Don't see how you can force anyone to move up imo, unless the others are willing to pay for any losses that club has.  Riders wages seem to be the biggest issue here. Sure i heard somewhere that Chris Harris would be on double what he is on in the championship. So no wonder why Glasgow don't want to move up! Just because their owners have a lot of money doesn't mean they want to lose some of it on a league that looks like it is crumbling.  If they need a championship team to move up then they need to compromise on some of the deal breakers, if that is even possible. 

Sadly, Birmingham would still have closed due to their stadium being demolished. As for Oxford, running three teams is also a drain on fans resources and a drain on the wallet to attend all meetings and so had to choose who to watch. although there must be some truth that a stronger first team could have seen improved attendances for the Spiers, its more than likely  the fans chose to attend more meetings of the Cheetah's because they had the better home record of winning matches. 

I find it unbelievable that a professional sport isn’t ran in a professional manner with promotion and relegation etc. Every meeting will then more or less have something riding on it . That’s got to provide better racing. Which may attract bigger crowds. None of these going through the motions meetings. And none of these so called top level clubs and we know who they are , dictating to the sport, when where and what level they’re only prepared to race at . I keep seeing people saying that no rider is bigger than the sport. Well I reckon certain clubs definitely think they are , dictating the terms. It’s a joke. And any sport allowing this certainly looks like one from outsiders as well as those that have an interest in it. 

No Lisa they will have to use their wallets!

And the tv deal is with ……… ? otherwise what’s the point of the Premiership? 

I wonder if the BSPL are talking to the new President of the WSRA to see if any 'encouragement' can be brought to the Eastbourne situation?!  Just a thought............!
