  1. Under their own management means under their agreed rules. Why shouldn't riders race in both leagues if they wish? It could be seen as restraint of trade if put to the test? The likes of Glasgow, Edinburgh, etc and Poole can retain their preferred racenight
  2. Some of the young kids and parents are away on holiday. It's deferred to early 2027 season.
  3. Well bringing on 2 of the best GB teenagers isn't too bad......
  4. Phil Morris is CEO only of the Premiership, initially put in place to improve the product for TV presentation.. Mondays and Thursdays are 'priority' days for Prem racing, as agreed with FIM, to avoid (or at least minimise) clashes for riders who race in other countries. For example,What happens if an interested TV company doesnt see Mons/Thurs suiting their schedules, whether it be from Mr Morris or Mr Mayfield? As there appears to be at least 2 very different camps, maybe the Prem and Championship should have separate management and administration, like they had back in the old British and National leagues
  5. The'folk in power' ie the BSPL Management Board are 3 Prem promoters ( plus Phil Morris) and 2 Championship Promoters, so who is better qualified, connected,a visionary and dare I say, independent?
  6. The Polish 'rules' only refer to a country's 'top' leagues, so in theory doubling down can/will still happen.
  7. As the likes of Masters and Lawson are doing....
  8. The greater good is surely about clubs being financially sound no matter what level they operate at. Poole have done and won the Elite/Premiership for several seasons eventually losing money and fans. Putting themselves at financial risk simply to make up the numbers in a smaller league does not make good business sense. And Poole is a business for the Fords not a hobby!!
  9. I think they are a responsibly sized fish in whatever league they are, or have been, in. I believe their prime concern is remaining financially viable with restricted income streams and securing a long term tenure of their stadium. What surprised me was your inclusion of the Edinburghs, Berwicks and Redcars in their respective groups, and the likes of Sheffield in 'the rest'?
  10. Wow! I almost spat my coffee out when reading that!!
  11. It looks like the promoters know and it's them that make the signings.
  12. If I was chairing the AGM then yes I would!!
  13. Just for clarity in your opinion, who are the 'new thinking, ambitious and visionary' promoters?
  14. I guess if the number of Championship teams changes then the points limit would also change.
  15. So Plymouth Owner Mark Philips reckons he may put their licence 'on ice' for 12 months if he is unable to fund a new air fence after being let down by 2 'investors'. Also the BSPL AGM has been postponed from 3rd November!! New date TBA.
  16. Harrison has been at 5 for Scunthorpe for much of the season. Also let's not forget Kyle Newman..
