I personally would like to keep 2 leagues as I think one big league would cause a gulf in talent between riders and teams. I would like to make 2 simple changes for next season: 1. Premiership teams can race on any day apart from Saturday and Sunday. Championship sides ride on any day.   - Riders can still compete in the Polish 2nd + 3rd division   - More favorable nights for Poole, Glasgow and many other current championship teams   - Polish 1st division riders would miss very few meetings if they joined a team without Friday as their race night 2. Only 2 riders per championship team can double up:   - Aim to stop doubling up by 2029   - Allow a bigger gap between the championship and premiership as the products are way too close

One possible downside with just eight home meetings could be that the stadium owners think it is no longer worthwhile renting the stadium to a speedway club or would the owners impose rent increases to match the income they had before the reduction in meetings. One way might be for all top sides to run NDL teams fortnightly but I do not know the costs etc so it may not be viable. For sure, if stadium owners do not get a decent income then they might just think it is time to sell up and take the capital gain and invest in something else. I know it is unclear why Arlington has closed but when you think of the way that was filled on a regular basis and yet Spedeworth had the rug pulled says it all about the state of oval stadia in this country. Few are really 100% safe and because of that speedway is not in a good position.  With the decline in the number of stadia owners willing to allow oval sports that makes it hard to attract decent investment and you could see a time where just a few tracks remain and either compete in a European league(if rules permit) or those that remain stage individual meetings and international meetings. Difficult one for all involved to resolve going forward.

The funny thing is that speedway is a small world. Every one knows which riders sit in the back of their vans smoking rope, which ones take the Columbian marching powder, which ones who are generally “wrong un’s” and are to be avoided.    it ain’t a goody goody clean sport, the promoters know too.    if someone is willing to offer him a contract, more fool them. 

Yet? He is number one at both clubs and has only missed a couple of meetings for good reason. Poole fans clearly don't use the same vitriolic criticism as Ippo fans.

That might be the best and funniest thing I’ve ever saw in a speedway meeting.

Sadly, you now have your wish...
