The reason a complete team is not announced is usually that either they are having trouble finding their preferred option or the signings that have not been released yet are poor and the fans would not like them.
Personally do not think the EFL trophy is comparable as it is open to all Premier League and Championship u21 teams to play against League one and league two teams.
I dont really know why giving a team a bye is so bad, far more credible than having a team from a lower league in it. As you say it would not happen in football
How would that work then? We have to have riders of Premiership heat leader quality. Very difficult and expensive to draft in riders who are unattached.
Cant think of many recent injuries or any last season. With his experience and commitment to British Speedway I think he will be one of the top men in the Championship.
I seem to remember Klindt rode M.G pretty well although a long time ago also remember him riding there for more than one season so he cant have been that bad.
He will, he is one of the best gaters so should be no problem and although he may not pass riders of equal ability he should have no problem with lesser riders.
