  1. Well here goes the way forward for Speedways Future if anyone their is listening or interested. Yes this has been posted everywhere but will it make a blind bit of difference for the future or will it be the same old.💩 1. Leagues to be run on the Danish system of 5 rider teams with maximum of 1 GP rider per team. 2. Each team to name a squad of 6/7 riders. 3. Teams to run on their preferred night and if rider/riders are unavailable, National League riders to be drafted in. 3a. No guests under any circumstances, redeclarations allowed once per month. 4. North League; Belle Vue, Sheffield, Berwick, Edinburgh, Glasgow, Redcar and Workington. South League: Poole, Ipswich, Kings Lynn, Leicester, Oxford, Plymouth and Scunthorpe. 5. Teams having National League teams to stage meetings after main meeting with same format as Danish system. 6. Teams not having National League teams to stage second half with minimum of 6 heats. 7. North and South winners and second places to meet in semi finals and final. 8. League cup to consist of all teams and drawn in first round with 1 from North and 1 from South. Overall winners of each match through to quarter final with team losing with highest aggregate score to go through also. This is all fantasy, but something needs to be done now. Everyone to look at the big brighter future and get over themselves.
  2. All in all a total of 34 shareholders in this venture.
  3. So in this weeks Speedway Star we have whinging riders wanting a 2 league structure, obviously personal interest in 2 pay days per week and more. Promoters spouting the proverbial drivel, even loosely admitting that the Premiership CEO cannot do his job. For everyone to move forward, forget about the past and re invent the future for next year now.
  4. When Belle Vue moved to the National Speedway Stadium many incentives to buy a season ticket were on offer. Year on year since then no incentives whatsoever, only a continual purge on the aging fans purse strings. Every club that offers season tickets should show how much the fans are appreciated by giving them a shirt/scarf. Why is everyone moaning about how so few fans wear team merchandise, when the reality is they cannot afford them. It was unjustifiable to raise the price for Mondays meeting and really what has club merchandise got to do with it?
  5. The unnecessary price increase highlight's how detached from a professional business acumen these people are. Speedway is done and dusted in this country. R.I.P. BRITISH SPEEDWAY.
  6. I have heard that Belle Vue increased admission prices for yesterdays Semi Final Play off match against Ipswich. Can anyone clarify if that is correct and if so why?

  8. Money is the root of all evil and finances are restricted to have one league. Travelling expenses and the present lack of fans and sponsorship would be the downfall of one league. It would make financial sense to split into North and South making a league cup where they all meet more interesting and hopefully give fans what they want.

  12. So a NORA licence has been approved and a scheduled meeting planned for 6 September. Hope they get a decent crowd and well done to everyone involved.
  13. Everyone bar you on this forum will understand why Plymouth fielded such a team! Maybe they should have waited till next year to stage the meeting when all the riders are fit and available, would that suit you?
  14. Best news for speedway this week. Will be great to see the Comets back on track and all the best to Andy and the team.
  15. Any news regarding the NORA Track Licence inspection?
  16. This could be potentially the best thing to happen in British Speedway this year, if a return is possible any time in the future. Good luck to John and Jon in their efforts to achieve this and I am sure it will be heavily supported by all speedway fans around the world.
  17. Well now we all know the length of a Grand Prix meeting in Manchester, 2 hours and 10 minutes for 23 races... Excellent and credit to everyone concerned in its staging a brilliant spectacle with decent racing. Hopefully all meetings staged at Belle Vue in the future be run with the same efficiency now and without the un necessary delays?
  18. Just letting everyone know that this scheduled fixture deserves a thread and hopefully line ups can be confirmed and a good turn out of support from everyone after the Grand Prix's
  19. Heard a possibility of switch for a NORA licence, can anyone elaborate?
  20. So no real answer to the question! Starke wins depriving the National League Riders Development in order for more track time to improve his prior dismal performances. Hope he is really proud of his win at the cost of Youth Development and Poole made a profit on the meeting!
  21. With tonight's meeting being advertised as:- Harbour Masters Championship (National League Riders Development Individual) Then why is Paul Starke replacing William Cairns? We Know William is injured, but which National League team Does Paul Starke represent?
  22. The racing was second to none. But with such a poor crowd, how will the riders be paid? Promotion be able to stage these events? More has to be done to actually promote the sport to people who do not even know it exists.
  23. Do you really follow speedway at all or are even interested in it? The so called Junior races are the future of British Speedway and some wonderful talent on show. I for one, are far more interested in watching these young lads aspire to the dizzy heights of representing their Premier League teams in the future. But hold on, you will not watch them now, but will in the future?
  24. Like I mentioned before, the apathy is here in the UK itself, wih little if no help given to the prospective riders.
