Unless there are some big surprises that doesnāt look a Top 4 Team .IMO Happy to be proved wrong though.

Thatās the big problem in the sport.Riders demanding an Annual Salary for 6 months work.Wage demands are out of control.It is a Sport and not a career. -

Pursuit of Speed is not the main factor on speedway bike.IMO Its about set up,large numbers of riders waste money paying tuners for something they canāt ride too itās potential. -

SGB Championship 2026 Confirmed Signings
Fromafar replied to Paddy The Rebel's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Iām afraid your not convincing me on that one.š¤ -
He certainly worked out the fastest way round Shielfield and decent both home and away.Most fans would like to see him back in future.
-
Yet he has a near 8 pt average,doesnāt say much about other overpaid mediocre riders.Plenty of riders have attitude.
-
He is just a sh#t stirring muppet.

Nothing will change if they continue to let riders dictate the pay rates. -

You will find him at most racecourses these days backing his horses. to get funds for British Speedway no doubt.š¤š we must keep or fingers crossed that The Jukebox Man wins the Cheltenham Gold Cup for Harryās donation to Speedway.šš -

Funnily enough was just reading classic Speedway mag article by Malcolm Simmons where he tell you the story ,as a 17 year old he failed his driving test and he was that annoyed he never resat it. So he was driving without licence insurance and obviously stole tax disc from another vehicle,for which he got a six month jail sentence .Great article on his career,this article was in 2011 and his views on the future of the sport are almost spot on,Elite League in GB was no longer elite compared to other Countries riders .Riders giving engine tuners big money for nothing really(they just want to turn up and ride the bike)fancy vans.Promoters mainly fans with money from their business.Amongst other things He anticipated when TV money runs out the sport is in trouble and will probably have go back to Amateur status.That was 2011 and heās not far out. ps Many fans have had the same view since then.

For the Top 4š¤š

Good looking Team on paper so far.
-
Perhaps the Costs will come into it.Expensive to watch the same Opponent every couple of meetings.Have to hope meetings are humdingers .!

The Premiership is a farce Full Stop. be surprised if they maintain crowd levels,with repetitiveness of fixtures. Sad times for the sport.

If Witches end up with a poor Team and a poor season their fans can only put the blame on Louis for his poor exit strategies.
