Why can't people wait? British Speedway is currently in a better place for '26 than it looked a few weeks back. We know there will be a Premiership, we already have riders confirmed. We know there will be a Championship, with some teams having already announced their full line-ups.  IMO 'parlous' is going too far. Too may on here seem to feel they have a right to know information immediately, and are still being negative even though their teams will actually be racing in '26. It comes across as incredibly ungrateful, this from a person that hasn't watched his team compete competitively for 20 years. I'd love to be able to regularly watch my team.

Agreed, sort of. But the costs to that rider (for example engine tuning/repair) may also be an influence, so you could just as easily blame them, rather than putting it all directly at the riders door??

Sorry Wookieboy Don , I strongly disagree. In view of the parlous state of UK speedway,  an interim statement should have been issued to all media channels . If nothing else to confirm that the meeting has at least taken place yesterday !   Sadly this poor PR  typifies the running of the sport in the UK nowadays. A  publicity opportunity lost. 

Are people that entitled and feel that privileged that they HAVE to know something immediately? I know how it feels for your team not to come to tapes so spare me that line...

most certainly i would say. 

Maybe it's having to go into a second day? Not unprecedented, i think
