I give in,it was only a suggestion ! -
Belle Vue National Stadium
Fromafar replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Surely that can be changed,The BSPA can control the finances to benefit everyone.As long as the host venue do not lose out,why should they get 50% if that's the way it works I can see why the sport is on its death bed. -

Surely the revenue should be shared among clubs it all about money,just divide the profits up.Anyone that has been to to Belle Vue has to be impressed with the racing it provides. -
Belle Vue National Stadium
Fromafar replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Since it was built and named the NSS should all the National Finals and Team Events not be held there.Nice venue ,superb track and let's face it anywhere with speedway in GB is not that far away nowadays with decent Rail and Transport links.That way it might attract new fans to see a major event in the sport.Instead we spread them all over as just another event.We need to promote as the NATIONAL VENUE. The BSPA need to get involved more in the venue.Sounds horrendous what has happened ,but we will never get the right story. -

Why do they pay over the odds to the so called big hitters.Promoters are their own worst enemy when it comes to it .Theoretically the points limit should not make any difference to wages,it's the people negotiating that's the problem. -

We need some new blood among the riders , to get some enthusiasm back among the fans IMO .Dont really see why the had to reduce points limit though.Thats just me though -

Agree Allen and WilsonDean signing paid off.Tungate and Graczonik would be no1 at a lot of tracks in PL.We need TJ +another rider who would improve,rather than riders who have peaked. -
Good news,like my visits good racing!
-
Think the averages will be the bone of contention as usual,Doubling Up will create headaches I fear.
-
There always seems an added clause that causes confusion! No doubt it will all become crystal clear!!!!
-
Is it really nessessary to drop the limit to 40pts.?
-
Perhaps Heat Leaders should keep their starting average for the season.
-
simples! Why didn't the fans think of it ,has to be the question,best AGM again!

Agree, probably getting watered down league of some sort. -
You must be one of these EL snobs then .!!!!!!
-
Your making things up regarding my Post.!!!! Where did I quote the PL is truly wonderful.
-
Where did I say one league is superior to another,you making things up!.Most fans realise the GB speedway is on the decline,90% of clubs could not afford to run in "top league" as you call it if it means paying extortionate wages to riders who treat Gb speedway a means of topping up their earnings .The ridiculous attitudes that exists is between the Promotors and NOT the fans.Most of them have voted with their feet in recent years.The PL is not a superior league it is a more realistic answer to the money problems in the sport,but even it is starting to fail in that respect.In Few years time the same fate will follow in NL regarding riders wages the way things are going.We can't attract new fans and keep them that's the problem to solve whatever it takes.
-
Here's hoping some Pl clubs are not suckered in to joining EL like the beginning of the Ninetys.Let them get on with it,paying out money they can't afford is ruining the sport.

Given the consequences of the vandals they would have to be very brave.
