It is barmy that you deliver success then cannot maximise it financially... Basically you win the play offs and then?... The sport stops... And you then lose riders that fans have had an affinity to, so go into your "Champions" season looking nothing like the team who actually won... You can actually spend half a season winning meetings comfortably, and your home crowd reduces due to the lack of jeopardy of victory or defeat. After June we seem to always know the PO teams, and you get nothing for topping the table .. They should stop "dumbing down" and start to "level up", and that way fans can build affinity with riders, and riders can build an affinity with fans, as they know it won't be a one or two season visit... You should only lose your place in a team for not performing, and definitely not for doing "too well"... Currently, what is actually the point of winning the league? Given financially, you are not getting the opportunity to earn from it, and cannot build a "dynasty" for further success... And after all the Mickey Mouse, contrived, pi**ing about to make things "even", the same four teams qualify anyway!!!😁

But is there enough riders to go around that fit that criteria? -
From NR6 Beaumont Park 121 miles Northampton 118 miles Ipswich 56 miles West Row 49 miles Kings Lynn 45 miles My money is on West Row for a change of scenery and some hairy riding. Everybody knows he likes a challenge and Buster is unlikely to pay the going rate albeit a rise in stolen cash machines in and around Kings Lynn may just open up the options 😂

Is Riss really worth it? Excellent rider on his day, but completely unreliable with his illness. Personally I dont think he's worth the rissk. -

This is an area I would be happy to see changes made to and encouraged There is so much discount for this (2.5% Brit) ,allowance for that (5% home guest) why not reward continuity I'd support a 0.1% reduction for any rider in the previous seasons initial declaration that is named in the next seasons initial declaration -

Why not?? At the start of the season, Michael Lee would be just a 19 year old at No7. As the season progressed he'd still end up No1, British Champion and World Champion. Rising Stars are not locked in at No7 after the start of the season. With Rushen around 4.50, and Kim Nilsson is available on a similar average, some clubs would scrap Rushen for the "safer option". Then possibly move for a foreign U21 on a 3.00. It's also a reason why the Rising Star should have been U24 / 5.00. British Speedway has always done a terrific job in recent history of trying to hamper and burn British kids development. The last thing we need is clubs burning ex-Rising Stars / youngsters because they'd got a too high average. This current system could be way simpler by just saying every British rider U21 gets 25% until the season they turn 22 and / or the achieve an average of 6+.
