Yet again as much substance in the reply as a deflated soufflé

But still no response that sets out what the 'alternative truth' is...... Still waiting for someone (anyone) to put up what the numbers actually are if mine are not a reasonable reflection

10 days on and despite a few bits of bluff, bluster and deflection I can't see one reply that has been able to disprove either the figures quoted OR the principle behind it Given the hundreds of pages and thousands of posts on numerous threads concerning 2026 I'm taking that to mean my statement is closer to the truth than many are prepared to admit.......

Hang on, hang on But there are loads of riders and one big league could work wonderfully Now all of a sudden a missing Pickering would cause a lack of options!!

Sad news RIP Brian Thoughts with all family and friends

Perhaps Terry Russell Licence on ice - does that situation run out this year? Swindon won't be ready Links to Doyle and Ellis Arguably owes the sport given his gain from the Sky deals.....

Well the Witches are hot property

Will they let them in to their wonderful panacea of perfectness??

Kn0b

Would a new owner have a choice? I think the Championship clubs would block a new entry

Can't sign for Poole now then

Perhaps if initially there are only sufficient riders for 9-10 teams there should be a tender process for licences in that league Win the bid and you are in and if you don't no league place for you....

I've never much liked the look of a dog with no tail Fair enough - forget Crufts and go with the mungrels.....

So you're saying it needs to be Premiership standard Instead we have something very much in tune with the general malaise of British Speedway.....

Because it won't end up being what suits them - it's not feasible to continue in that form if the rest fails It's looking very much like no one will get what they want and everyone will be unhappy!

It was to highlight a point that many arguing re the potential league set ups (whether 2026 or beyond) don't seem able to grasp

That's the spirit - let's close down 5 clubs so that we're OK

If the Witches did end up in 1 big league I'd expect you can forget Brennan Rew and Ellis too. All likely to be Poland bound I'd think

Poland will snap him up

I think there are more pressing deportation priorities..... F@c£ me one llegal couldn't be sent back because he had a Guinea pig!

Anybody thinking the GP and other top riders will sign up to ride Fridays and Saturdays for the peanuts one big league would pay is totally deluded Never fear though you still have the superhero Simon Lambert to hold the fort

The land is owned by the original Ipswich Speedway from the 1950s - local family whose name I cannot recall at present All Speedway companies since (Berry/Shears/Louis/Louis) are completely unrelated to the original The stadium lease Is currently with Spedeworth - not long ago renewed and for a longish term (again cannot recall exact length) The current Speedway is a sub let from Soedeworth

I agree in the Oxford orbit that it was not the message projected but in the official national meetings it was allegedly presented very differently

He could need to be a 3rd heat leader/senior second string if the 'one big league' became the option!

Harris has apparently signed up for Pila in Poland and also somewhere in Sweden
