The White Knight

I haven't quoted your Post again but as steve says, it is fascinating. There is also a lot of hard work gone in to this - thank you for your efforts. A worthwhile exercise as far as I am concerned.

Well I, for one, hope they don't scrap the Championship or screw it over. It is my preferred League.

................. and THAT, my friend, is a very good question. Answers awaited with great interest.

.............. as anyone would who was watching a Result being contrived. That's my view and I reckon a fair few others feel the same BW. Feel free to slag me off yet again.

Something like that would certainly pull the Crowds in.

EPG = Electronic Programming Guide - I think. :unsure:

I would be happy with that actually - as long as it was written in stone.

I no longer attend. My reasons are well documented on here. I don't wish to go through all of the arguments again. No offense taken.

Thank you for telling me my motives. I appreciate that. At least I can have a sensible discussion with BW even though I don't agree with him. You, on the other hand ............................................. :rolleyes:

We must agree to differ in our opinions.

That is a very good point ff. I don't think the Supporters would be too bothered if their Riders were riding overseas, as long as it did not interfere with there Team commitments here. It wouldn't bother me.

No - that s true and how you feel about it. It would be nice if you were to grant me the right to believe that what I am doing is right for me - and not silly.

It didn't the second time. Sorry.

Yes - you used it twice. The first time it was funny.

Very glad to hear it BW.

Not a particularly nice analogy, in my humble opinion. :nono:

I agree totally. But wouldn't it be even better if all Clubs could stay in theChampionship where most, if not all of them belong?

At least that would get me back to Speedway Trees. Good idea. True - but they would get home earlier.

................ and the inevitable drop in quality for the Supporters of those Clubs.

I sincerely hope you are right. But - what about those who don't?

I suppose so ff. It would be sad though, to lose the Championship as we know it.

At least I can stand by my principles. You can't even Debate without getting personal. I'll leave the more intelligent on this Forum to make that judgement.

That would certainly be better than the alternative. Making the Premiership stronger ant the expense of the Championship is a none starter for me. The Premiership has got itself in to it's own particular mess regarding number of Teams in it. Why should the Championship be turned in to a worse and less competative League just because the Premiership can't get enough Teams. Four Clubs out of the Championship would wreck it - and more to the point, the powers that be know that. They did enough damage this year. This was a decent Debate until you arrived. Have you nothing positive/negative to contribute as usual?

I would argue that the Championship/Premier League has done very nicely thank you over the last few years on it's own. The only people who want to change things by and large are the Elite/Premiership League. They are the ones taking Riders from Championship Teams. Now they are trying to take Teams from the Championship too. I certainly hope that this does NOT happen. Doubling down should all be stopped.

I have no doubt that 'who cares' will be the prevailing attitude. As long as the Top League is catered for, in many people's minds, that is all that matters. Very sad but very true.
