I might suggest that the BV crowds wouldn’t change much then. We all know that speedway crowds are predominantly people who would go regardless of the ‘level of rider’. There are some exceptions to this obviously but I don’t think the impact would be significant. 

Agree, Can see why the want to do it though. Pole's are pretty much useless at every other Sport going, They cling on to an ageing Robert Lewandowski like Bonnie Blue clings onto Men 24/7.

I will be talking about this very subject on the speedway360 podcast when I’m next on in a couple of weeks time, imo why we have a lack of riders and what we can do about it 

Think Hancock also bizarre luck that a fall down the stairs finished it for him in the end.

Philip Hellstrom Bangs being talked about for Belle Vue. Would be a good signing for Glasgow on a 6.00 average imo

GP Boys wouldn't be going anywhere as none of them ride in both the PREMIERSHIP and Sweden. I think Doyle rode in Denmark this year but he lives in the UK so everything is fine on that front as well. The Polish rules stuffs up the Swedish League really, It would've stuffed up British Speedway but the Aussie's don't really have a choice and they have to ride in the PREMIERSHIP unless they want to emigrate which is highly unlikely considering they've got young families who are settled in the UK. Danish riders have to ride in Denmark due to Sponsorship and stuff but the only Dane's that ride in the PREMIERSHIP are.....Jeppesen, Iversen, Klindt & Kildemand. 2 of those don't even get a look in when it comes to Poland and Klindt only gets signed after the season has started if a club has an injury crisis So effictively out of Aussie's, Dane's and Swede's we're losing Iversen and Palovaara only.....Possibly Polish based Tungate if he opts for Sweden.
