2 BSPL directors, Bates and Ford, although they will have involvement as the Limited Company seems to own most of BSFL.

Firstly, you don't know that ( although I accept you might well have more info than just we common fans) unless you were party to all the arrangements.   I cant imagine that promoters such as the Faccennas and owners such as messrs Rice and Southwell at Belle Vue, all serious business people, have had the wool pulled over their eyes.  Maybe they think, knowing the deal that Speedway Futures has agreed, that it represents s good deal for them all. 

But my point being most of the BSPL members seem to have been cut out the deal and they will have to accept whatever crumbs they are offered 

So top 15 with 2.5% reduction if applicable 1 Sam Masters 10.09 2 Richard Lawson 9.59 3 Chris Harris 8.90 4 Charles Wright 8.86 5 Danny King 8.59 6 Dan Thompson 8.50 7 Nic Klindt 8.36 8 Jonas Jepp 8.20 9 Peter Kildemand 8.05 10 Kyle Howarth 7.92 11 Scott Nicholls 7.88 12 Drew Kemp 7.88 13 Anders Rowe 7.38 14  Palovaara 7.35 15 Sedgeman 7.34 16 Zach Cook 7.34    

Suppose that depends on who your 1 to 7 is really. As well as injuries etc. Hopefully one day you’ll work out that you can’t predict results more than 6 months in advance. 

A 5 team league? Will the fans of the team who tops the other 4 seriously celebrate it as a wonderful achievement? It’s embarrassing if you think about it. What a shame its sank to this.
