What will 2026 UK speedway bring?
Bagpuss replied to Lionsman66's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Completely different scenario in an extremely densely populated conurbation like London. A speedway team in Swaffham would be tapping into the very same customer base that go to Lynn in a part of the world which is relatively sparsely populated. Just dont think it would work for either venue. -
It would be more to do with the relationship he's had with Lynn over a period of time.

Or he could simply be a squad member in Poland and ride occasionally when Glasgow have no fixture which I suspect is most likely. -

I can't imagine anyone being happy with a five team league. -

Is it still possible to buy Sky Sports on a day to day basis through Now TV? -

Stop rabbiting on 🐇 -
You clearly know nothing about Luke Harrsion. Your initial point was that Glasgow wouldn't take the risk on him because he is a similar age to Boughen but that's a daft reason to not sign him. Sounds like Glasgow have anyway and I think he'll do really well, he's an extremely talented young rider and most importantly a racer so Ashfleid will suit him perfectly.

18 and a completely different type of rider & character.
-
You could well be right. Has he packed in?
-
If I've calculated correctly SW would be on 6.64 next season, if he's fully committed I'd say thats a pretty attractive figure for somebody as a third heatleader or second string.
-
If its true that Fricke is going elsewhere then you'd imagine there is more in the kitty to offer Thompson than there would have been otherwise.
-
I suspect Lawson, Kerr, Rowe, Cairns & Rushen are locked in and they wanted Bowes & Bailey to join them but one of them have foreign commitments which means it cant happen. Not sure which, probably Bailey with his Wednesday stuff in Denmark.

Pollestad - top talent.

Where has this been reported please Iain? -
Speedway Updates is dying a slow death unfortunately and for the first time that I can remember they weren't able to cover every meeting last year due to a lack of volunteers. I feel something more modern is needed for speedway fans, an app along similar lines to the Polish one would be ideal.

Like that team a lot. Really needs Edwards or Jenkins to break through though and take their careers to the next level with no King.
-
I'll be absolutely gobsmacked if its not 36 for the top five. We shall see.

And of course Mulford, apologies to him for my forgetfulness.
-
A few weeks ago he posted on his Facebook page that he was looking for a Premiership team spot for 2026. Assuming that means that Lynn have told him that he isn't part of their plans then I think that must mean they are targeting a genuine number one as I can't think of any other reason why he wouldn't be coming back as he was excellent last season. I suspect he is a victim of the numbers game.
-
Main U24s would presumably be Flint, Rowe, Thompson, Edwards, Kemp and Gilkes.

Fricke Kvech Harris Klindt Cook Scott Rushen
-
Looking at the British U19 from this year and excluding Foord who I think will be too old the top six were Harrison, Scott, Rushen, Cairns, Pjiper and Loftus. Assuming of course they are young enough at whatever the cut off point is.
-
Got to be 36 for the top five surely
-
If Worky was his home track he'd be a completely different rider to last year IMO.
