Bailey has signed for Region Varde in Denmark so makes Poole highly unlikely if not impossible.

It's already been announced.

2027 - 8 Team Premiership
SteveLyric2 replied to CTRSports's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
'Journeymen' can still be very professional in whatever league(s) they race in. Young Brits need to race against more experienced riders - not of GP level - in order to gain experience before being pitched in against the GP-level racers. -
Why not?

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 -
Some of the young kids and parents are away on holiday. It's deferred to early 2027 season.

Is that the 'Sky buying ITV' complication? -
Well bringing on 2 of the best GB teenagers isn't too bad......

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 -

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? -

Step aside from what exactly? -
You beat me to it...
-
2.5% Brit reduction.

-
The Polish 'rules' only refer to a country's 'top' leagues, so in theory doubling down can/will still happen.
-
As the likes of Masters and Lawson are doing....

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!! -

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'? -

Wow! I almost spat my coffee out when reading that!! -
It looks like the promoters know and it's them that make the signings.
