    • Sadly you could say that about British Speedway for the past several years .... "always going to be fixed next season". Maybe this AGM  in January 2026 really is  "THE MOST IMPORTANT IN THE HISTORY OF THE SPORT" to quote the regular old chestnut trotted out in the Speedway satr to try and sell a few more copies.  Dont think it is unfair to say the "one big league" has been suggested for a few seasons now - but what did the clever boys in charge do .... they started  "doubling up" "doubling down" under some misguided belief that it would help riders progression.  It has just developed into a money earning stunt for the mediocre riders and  separated the 2 leagues further apart , making it nigh on impossible for teams to move up or down ... with so many doubling up riders. Sooperstars carried on regardless, and rabbits enjoyed the "rising star" charade.   This also makes amalgamation nigh on impossible with the loss of sooperstars plus the loss of many doubling up riders who might just retire with only one teams income (albeit more meetings per season.)  None of which solves the minor issue of getting MORE people through the turnstiles, something that has been continually overlooked !!      
    • I’m just saying why would the Championship reject Premiership Teams if it was on Championship Terms.As @Phil the Ace hinted that the Championship didn’t want them.The Sport is a shambles,obviously Sheffield and Ipswich situation made it even worse.Why did Louis throw in the towel.( what was the REAL reason).Not a word to the Ipswich supporters on the subject is pretty poor all round.Sheffield is just as bad trying to play call my bluff with the sport.  
    • Good luck to Jack never seems to get a good run in a team , always tries his best for whatever club he rides for 
    • The championship clubs closed that door before any discussion even took place. CL's proposal one league with 6 man teams for 2026 should at least have been explored, but once again, self interest prevailed...
    • So you're saying they wouldve been happy if it was best for them, even if it wasn't for others and potentially not the best for the sport overall....
    • Shows the difference between Facebook supporters and the ones on here, still each to their own.
