Kurtz and Lidsey are great gaters Perhaps your riders should learn to gate better rather than just rely on a big open track to ride on

By running one league at a lower level isn’t going to cut costs that drastically. Whoever rides in the heat leader role is always going to demand more money for that responsibility. So granted it might be cheaper for an established heat leader versus someone like Emil, Doyle etc however those costs are often offset by sponsors picking up the tab of the big name. Im sure running Speedway isn’t the lucrative product it was in the golden eras of the sport however we live in different times now. speedway isn’t the credible far reaching sport that it used to be. Tracks aren’t closing because of lack of attendances at all. The demand for land and the long standing tie in with Greyhound stadiums is the cause of the closures. Nothing else. speedway has failed to look after its interests as a whole for many many years and hence why we now are in the situation we are in. promoters have for too long used self interest as their primary motivation, Thats why you have to applaud the NSS (which many said would never happen) for what it’s achieved in more recent times and the likes of Workington reopening. with the right backing and promotion the sport can still survive as it is. Council protection can also be vital (and there is a glimmer of hope for Coventry). Thats why keeping 2 leagues is vital because a watered down one level league isn’t going to work and has been pointed out there isn’t enough decent standard riders without the big boys from abroad to fill all team spaces. Let clubs run when they want, give them back some ownership. Or maybe the top flight can have a break away league under NORA and perhaps form a smaller league and join the Polish league like Germany does. Plenty of Brits travel to Poland to watch proper high standard teams perform so it’s not too hard a task to make happen. UK teams could have a squad system for Polish league meetings.
