I'm not sure they're trying to win something with very little kudos, I think it's more like they're trying to win races to get noticed by Polish clubs.  If it were down to me, it'd be ultimatum time, riders commit to this country in something like a 40 match calendar or clear off and earn their bacon elsewhere. Our clubs need to be riding on the nights that suit them... not the riders. 

Option A - £20+ a Meeting with big hitters. Two leagues with Poland flexing their muscles leading to British clubs putting out weakend teams on track something that Phil Morris and Fixed raced nights was supposed to stop. Promoters lose because attendances will be down, Fans lose because they're still having to pay the full amount when some big hitters aren't at the meeting. Option B - Say roughly £12-15 Option One big league that see's 5 Man Teams with riders like Lawson, Wright, Masters etc. riding as No.1's that see's full line-ups take to track on a weekly basis barring injury.

I think also that what people don't get is midlands traffic can be horrendous, you can't just pop down the road. from say Wolves to Perry Barr, its going to be at least an hour in Monday rush hour traffic even though it s less than 20 miles!!  - There are two cities in the UK I hate driving in they both begin with B - one is Bristol and the other is Birmingham! I live in Sheffield and don't go that often if Sheffield closed I could get the either BV or Scunny but the prospect of a 1 hr journey each time would mean it would be an occasional visit at the most!  That doesn't mean I still don't enjoy streams and watching on the TV, or having an opinion on what happens. In 2022 or maybe 2023 (Wolves last season) I saw a guy who was clearly a Wolves supporter at the tram stop at Hillsborough corner - clearly on his way back to Sheffield station for a train back to Wolverhamnpton area - I recall thinkling fair play - you won't be home until Midnight! Whilst this is true what is the issue? - perhaps part of it is the Brummies closing in the mid 80s and not re-opening until the mid 2000's. That 20 year gap may have lost a lot of following. I'd say BIrmingham has the larger potential audience than Sheffield (500K) and the crowds at Owlerton are decent prob 2k or so - more when Belle Vue or Leicester are in town. Similar to the Netball - Basketball in the UK  - I used to take my lad and a couple of his mates to Sharks (Sheffield) games the sport was I suspect semi pro / part time but attracted a good loyal regular following prob about 700-1k per match. I haven't been for a few years so no idea what the crowds are like now.

Villads rode for us against Plymouth, scored 3+1

I can see the Stars maybe doing R/R for Jan, getting Zach Cook in to guest for his brother and maybe getting Dan Thompson to guest at reserve for Nicolai 🤷🏻‍♂️ that will be our best chance away at Leicester… our best chance of stopping them scoring 60+ anyway I mean, we need to try and keep it as respectable as possible 👍🏻

I find the NSS like a faster Scuntthorpe - nearly always decent passing opportunities and they allow the racer to go flat out which is what i prefer - if only all tracks were like this! Sheffield used to be like this but is now too narrow IMHO.
