The coffee was so hot at the Rugby League match on Sunday it blistered my top lip......didn't stop me shouting 'Town' home tho.

I see the headline...'Replying to Next Season..promotion and Relegation'. And I couldn't help but wonder if there will actually be enough speedway teams left to accept this idea anyway.??? I mean how many of the current crop are going to survive after this season? I was reliably informed that my team had an attendance of 349 last Saturday.....there must be alarm bells ringing regarding that figure. And who knows how many other clubs have similar headaches to ponder over? Plymouth for sure, Redcar ?, Scunthorpe? others ?, and watching a video of a recent Rye House meeting the track terracing had more heaps of rubble around it than speccies. However that then makes it an ideal situation for using one league only...no promotion/relegation...then the doubling up would be kicked out, and a more varied fixture list would surely prove a bigger attraction.? Speedway is a fantastic sport and will hopefully recover from the current downward spiral.....but promotion/relegation is not a good answer. The formation of one large league, for now, is better for the future well being of the sport.
