In my book, thats one x second heat leader, and 2 x second strings, we now need a No 1 a No 5 and a No 6 and a No 7 1, ? 2. David Howe 3. Aaron Summers 4. Kevin Doolan 5. ? 6. ? 7. ? RUDDICK Walk you idle rubbishe At least they have ONE -
Just in the back of my mind, EU and countries associated to EU like Norway were in those rules, without that, USA etc came in on a 7 or even 8

Would an American come in on a 5 point ave

The point is, why were we looking at a 30 yr old when we should have been bringing on a youngster sub 21. I still believe No 7 should be under 21 and British and No 6 should be British as well -

Never understood their train of thinking for our No7 first it was Chessel who pulled out 27 yrs old, then Blacklock 27 yrs old then Paine 30 yrs old, all had been in the NL for 10 to 15 yrs and gone nowhere, so why in hells name sign them. I am sure the rule was made to bring on under 21s, it should have been made clear by the BSPA this was their intention, as usual never any clarity from them -

Its crap, but I was not expecting anything else

There was me thinking what a success they are, crowds up to see the No 1 team. Is it the case that crowds are up, but they are not making a profit, then it is possible the Business Model is wrong. Or is it simply, by overpaying for riders, it cannot make a profit with the current fan base, as there is not enough gate money to cover the costs. Suggestion CUT YOUR CLOTH ACCORDINGLY

You could give someone you know attends every week a free ticket for a friend who no longer attends or has never been to speedway, to try and tempt them back or to give it a try

What have they changed Allowing Nichols is just one rider, the problem has arisen by making a rule in Prem only 1 rider on 8+, but mot applying the same rule in Champ L, allowing some clubs to sign 2 No1s -
I would say the teams who were allowed to bring in 2 No1s are definately in the top 4 all 4 of them

You cannot blame the rich clubs for taking advantage, from a c*ck up made by the BSPA. they brought in a sensible rule to limit one rider with a +8 average in the Premiership, then did not apply the same rule in the Championship letting the money men deprive 2/3rds of the league a No1 rider -

It does very much like 2 competitions the top 4 or 5 then the bottom 7, the teams who can splash the cash against the rest. Of course you are, to be fair I wish we could down here, aint got a Sugar Daddy though. -

Well thats J.P.B out of the equation -
Must say I get a greater delight out of a club, taking a chance on new signings, bringing them on to succeed. As opposed to a club just paying for the best riders available, that cannot be fulfilling in my book. That must win at all cost mentality, should be condemned it is self defeating.

Hope he doesn't spit the dummy like he did at Berwick last season.

Sometimes it's better to think out of the box, and not think like a speedway rider, who in general are a mercenary bunch.

Same problem up the road, we got a second heat leader riding at No1

If they havn't ridden in UK before or havn't ridden at International level for their Country, I believe so.
