Prem clubs have the tv deal.

Just spotted Villads doing the Cami rain dance!🤣

They surely won't/can't stick to 40 if there are a different number of league teams? Also I can't see Fraser Bowes at Worky next season!!?

Weather forecast looks dire for those travelling long distances. What do the locals say?

Yes the decades of 'promoting' the sport as 'family friendly' have really worked well !!!!

Mr Tolley - in his final emotional speech after Birmingham's closure - made reference to 'his hope that Cradley would be back if not in 2026 then 2027!! He also said he would still be involved in speedway next season! Thoughts.....?

I thought this was the Championship section.....

Surely that was back in the day when the British league and National league were separately managed and administered. Many would say now that the Championship should be separately managed!! Mr Morris was brought in as Chief Exec of the Premiership only - nothing to do with Championship or NDL/NDT!!

What fixture do you think Poole should have had? They've completed their home league programme, and the first leg of the KO Cup and BSN semis. Redcar wouldn't come until next Tuesday with visiting Oxford next Wednesday.

Simple answer, come to Wimborne Road as usual and watch footie on phone!!😉

This fixture now appears on the BSPL fixture list. Its not listed as 'provisional'! Nice of Poole to agree to host the first leg!!!!!!!!!!! Thoughts..?

Nagels and Rowe?

Speedway updates or Poole's twitter/X platform will carry updates, unless of course BSN can be pressured to cover it!!!?

I can't say what happened. I was in my grandstand seat applauding every race as usual and enjoying the great atmosphere from a large crowd . What gets me is all the 'holier than thou' people on here who won't admit that EVERY club has at least one or two idiots that act irresponsibly - usually alcohol-fuelled! Moving on.... are both teams using r/r or a guest on Sunday??

Wow! The things people say to generate a decent crowd when you are 14 points down!?😉

From what I'm hearing at the moment, it'll NOT be a one league structure. However it's still only August with another 2 months or so to the AGM, so anything can still change.....!

Yes, although clubs try to keep the streaming price the same, there are huge differences in other club incomes/costs, eg whether they own or operate their own Stadia, whether they get income from bars, hospitality, parking etc or not. It can be £14.99 for a Prem stream.

Ha ha. A 'raving' reporter is about right! Not a patch on Pooles...!😉

I think its a bit late in the season to start playing around with rider pairings - just my opinion.

For those that maybe cannot get to the track or find it too costly, then a stream at the same price is crazy! Clubs see the stream as extra revenue from those opposition fans and others unable or unwilling to travel. Premiership clubs have the 'benefit' of TNT Sports coverage but still most of them offer their own stream when not on TNT! I think I'm right in saying that Glasgow are the only Championship club that do not offer a streaming service. Ok thats their perogative and maybe they don't need any extra income from opposition fans unable to visit, especially if they benefit from all stadium income. Shame really.......that is all.

In the post-meeting interviews Lewis firstly had an electrical fault and then a puncture!! Anders - after a hellish week with vans breaking down and late track arrivals - said he has 'lost his gating gloves' and was hoping for some more track time at Sheffield (Oops!) and in Poland at the weekend. Everything fixable and both will be fine imo.

Well let's hope the 3000 free tickets the Facennas are giving away lead to a bumper crowd and some good racing. It'll be interesting to see how many return if/when the Tigers lose, despite the good racing?!

Just a shame there is no stream for those fans that are unable to travel!!! COYP

Middlo didn't moan - he just stated the facts!

Whats all this got to do with Poole 2025?
