According to my sums Taylor and Preist both wont fit into the points limit because another 3 pointer is needed so one of them will miss out.Anyone know who is in i heard Taylor was not riding in 2012 what about Burnett or has he retired again he did a good job for the team last year is he back or are they going for another unknown three pointer any one any idea?

How do you know that has it been anounced anything about Ben Taylor

Rising Costs For Only 14 Meetings!
speedy bill replied to think fast's topic in National League Speedway
I have posted on another post about rear guards, take a look at the ones used by ice racers they would be even safer. -
You my stalker Spin King,Ok sorry number two so lets have a third race with one res and the number twos the team manager could then chose any of the res to go in by making a res change.It then gives the res another chance leaving only one or the other to race against top five team men twice.May give the team managers something to think about for a change.
-
Come on Jack or Jayne you must know by now who the other three rider are or who you want,every other team seems sorted lets have some news is Preisty back Branford Taylor,or are we getting three no one else wants.I am hoping for a team that can challenge for the league again it was so good in 2010 lets have some more.
-
Let me run this past you,how about making heat eight another reserves race this will give the three pointers another chance to ride against riders of the same standard.They will get a boost out of scoring more points and earning a few more pounds to help with the cost of taking part,i am talking National League only.
-
Good signing Jason King, will bring your team up but how long will he stay on ten pound a point. I fear that if he gets a call from a premire club he will be gone,cant say i blame him but what then for scunny.I do hope some of the new riders start to score points and come good who knows.Look at Buxton in 2010 when unknown Branford Morris and Garrity all came good wow that was a team.
-
Now Dean Felton is back he should be captain he as done it before and has the nohow to help the younger riders.So come on lets give Dean the captains job because i heard Adam aint riding this year. Anyone agree with me.

Dean Felton back at Buxton
-
Great to see Dean is back, Neil h i dont think being in the top five would bother Paul he was once our number one i am sure older fans will remember those days.Gone but not forgotten its sad how time goes so fast.
-
If Deano is back what about the other golden oldie Paul Burnett is he returning,i thought both did well last year and deserve to be.

All you lot just dont get it we dont give our own grown riders the chance to step up,we just go on signing overseas riders.Poland have a restriction on non poles in there teams so that they use their own and look how they produce good riders .Then we sign em over a british lad then moan that we are not producing any good riders.The national league is doing a great job bringing riders on then they hit a brick wall called premire league who are allowed to fill there teams with foreign riders and bring them on this is repeated every year what i would like to see is a limmit put on like the poles do and get on with helping our own lads come through not rocket sience i am sure. -

no you got no Duffers in your team But you have got no British riders either should not be allowed its disgusting Chris Louis what are you doing at Mildenhall whats the point if you dont give british riders a team place now. -
I think my comment where taken out of context..I am all for the young lads and will be behind them in there quest to make it in speedway,Its a hard game and sure they will need all the encouragement from people to help them succeed.I wish them all the best of luck for the coming season,lets hope we find some new stars for the future.I certainly did not put anyone down on my last posting, it was based on my opinion only and people will have to take comments from us fans once they ride both good and bad.
-
Having seen young Micheal Neale riding at Scunny i dont think the lad is ready for league racing,i hope i am proved wrong he is a nice lad but could be left to struggle at national level.This could knock his confidence but lets hope not for his and the teams sake.
-
Cheers Vog dont know how you found out unless your a promoter but thanks for the info
-
Well what happend nothing on the b s p a site or any where. Did it happen or did no one speak, come on so called promoters promote.For gods sake let people know whats happed today at the A G M no news any where says everything you lot think about your fans who you expect to pay to watch your teams. I for one expect more from you promoters.How many teams how many meetings what new rules what new comps come on get your act together let people know.
-
i am sure that the stand alone teams will need more meetings Mildenhall Buxton I O W Stoke and maybe Dudley will need more so how about a trophy league and a k o c just for them and any who want to join them.
-
i agree riders should move up but the promoters dont give enough chances to brittish riders to move up they would rather bring in forign riders so a rider gets to a standard in national league then they hit a brick wall.the ones who do move up are not given a long enough run to make the grade and get replaced they end up back in the national league.i think Rob does a grand job but i still think the national league has grown out of being a development league.I tried to get my boss to sponser a rider last year but when i told him he rode in a development league he lost interest.
-
I am not against any young riders trying to improve but the national league has outgrown the training league it once was.The northern junior league is the place for these riders to start.Rob Godfrey does a great job bringing on young riders but he must look at the national league from the point of view of stand alone clubs they must have competitive meetings for their fans he once run a stand alone conference team and must know a show has to be good to keep the fans happy/ So ok two or three at the most 3pointers with next to know experience is enough for one team then lets see some good speedway.Lets just call the national league get rid of that stupid development tag r
-
Unless you sign two 10 point men your team is very. low on averages.If a team turned up in any of the other leagues looking so weak they would be facing a fine ,so why is it allowed in the national;league.We the fans still are expected to turn up and part with 10 quid plu s petrol to watch them. Lads may come good but right now they are mostly going to find the national league allot different to what they are used to.I for one will be reluctant to spend my money.
-
Can anyone tell me how the national league points limit can be set before they hold the a g m.How can it help young riders when by setting the limit before you know how many teams are running,Its going to mean teams that will be over the limit from last year. are not going to offer all riders a team place..Just what is going to happen to these riders ,.there are not enough teams to fit them in.and they being british the premier and elite leagues wont touch them.SO can someone tell me how this type of thing is going to help young riders.I can name ten who look like missing out,So all the effort they have put in will be wasted.

Are The Colts Racing In 2012?
speedy bill replied to jimmy jimmy's topic in National League Speedway
i very much hope so but they need to rebuild Bekker gone Mason retired so to as Richardson Howarth only wants premire Mackinna not sure Garrity off to Dry House only leaves Widdman . I feel sorry for Steve and Graham who put alot of effort in to the team to make in work so come on Mort i know its not your top must do things at the moment because the Elite team still needs sorting but give it a go please -
Buxton will have a great chance of winning league the league if all riders return plus Webster but who will they leave out as they must be over 40 is Branford not returning but they could have Allott Branford Taylor Webster plus three 3 pointers but i dout that very much so who is out i would like to know any ideas
