Good for Phil, this could be right up there with his innovative coloured start mats at the pit gate for televised meetings.

Premiership 2025 Confirmed Signings
Teromaafan replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Lawson has a higher average than Cook 😳 -
Speedway has been around for generations in this country, along with other sports. Unlike other sports (cricket is the best example I can think of), it has done nothing for decades in terms of serious and ongoing marketing to attract newer followers and most importantly, sponsorship. Money that riders can make in Poland is hardly reliant on attendances. Yes, there are more choices for spending your disposable on than there was years ago, but the same can be said for all sports in all countries. I’ve been surprised that the few Polish people I’ve met in this country know nothing about speedway (football is their national sport), but the people running the sport over there are obviously still doing something right!

2026? Think you might be getting a little ahead of yourself. Whilst Ipswich may be a very forward thinking and a well run club, things change very quickly in British speedway. change by the

Last 5 premiership rider predictions…

The article in this week’s Speedway Star would suggest that he only intends to ride in the Championship next season. -
Premiership 2025 Predictions
Teromaafan replied to TheSmiler's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Ipswich Belle Vue Sheffield Leicester Kings Lynn Oxford Birmingham Play offs? Depends on who can get Bomber to guest and who wants to take an end of season punt on Lambert. -
You missed the possible 50p increment between the £1 & £2 increase. Regardless of your budget, the nominal price increase will not determine whether someone will attend or not. Most people will accept what they’ve been served up previously or will have walked away from the sport before now. If all tracks were to reduce prices by £2, how many more spectators would that attract each week?……. Exactly! That isn’t going to bring back the ‘Yes I remember going to speedway years ago, what happened to the sport’ brigade. Tweaking admission costs are the very least of the sports problems in this country.

I hoped that was the case😆

According to my memory and subsequent research, Zagar only did two meetings at Leicester. Scored 9+1 from five rides and then 1 from four rides (failed to finish in 3 races). Pretty sure that he made his dislike for the track well known and was absent from the Aces line up on their later visits. To say you are easily pleased would appear to be a massive understatement!

Tasty looking line up that. The last two in the list will surely provide some serious bottom end (eye watering) fire power if called upon to deliver, should the established likes of ketchup disappoint on the night. -

Anyone for Pukka Park? Where talk of winning the league is pie in the sky. -
Was he recovering from bruising where speedway promoters had touched him with a barge pole?

Averaged just over 7 when he rode for us in 2017. Don’t know what he’s done since but suspect his average may be on the slide. Looking at the averages for that season, someone called Bewley averaged less than 5 for Belle Vue. Think I’d take him on that average, bit of a risk though 🤨 -
Can’t believe anyone would touch Rory on that average.

So Nigel Tolley’s vote for a 35 point team building limit got kicked into touch then. -

‘Polish Thursday’ has been sorted then, well done Mr Morris. Next job is to sort British speedway generally, i.e. ‘polish turd’. -
With the signing of Brennan now official, it also confirms the points limit for team building, which is of particular interest for many people ahead of the new season. I'm intrigued as to what other important matters need to be sorted/agreed over the next three days in the Spanish sunshine.

Is there a point to heat 15?
Teromaafan replied to brianbuck's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Fair enough. Care to expand on why it would be a non starter? A team’s weakest rider having withdrawn through injury before heat 15 is an obvious flaw I suppose. -
Is there a point to heat 15?
Teromaafan replied to brianbuck's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
How about riders in heat 15 being nominated by opposing team managers? Could end up being a repeat of heat 2, but league speedway is supposed to be a team sport and it might encourage more balanced team building with strength in depth. Before anyone asks, no, I haven’t thought this through! -
So he’s world class and is in such demand that he has an empty calendar?

Teromaafan replied to SuperStarsFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I'd like to think you are right but, I'm becoming less optimistic about getting a big hitter at 5. More than two points needs to be shaved off last year's team average total and reading all the forum posts, I'm starting to accept that Howarth could be just be a swap for Lawson or Douglas. -
Sheffield Tigers 2025

So we’re now arguing about which club has the fattest supporters. It’s going to be a long winter😆 -
Regardless of who he signs for, he will have ridden for everyone before the season is done.

You can probably add heats 2, 4 & 8 to that as well.
