Pitch

The problem is Monday night meetings! Thursday are OK though!

As Jason Doyle has decided to not ride in the uk this year, that can't be good for Ipswich or the Premiership. If anyone would be in the Know it would be him. He would definitely be in close contact with the current owners and any prospective new owners. The new owners would be desperate for him to ride, unless they told him that they couldn't afford him.

Yes especially Belle Vue and Kings Lynn (although I wouldn't expect anything else from Buster) because at least them two clubs don't have any ownership issues to resolve and know they are running in 2026.

I imagine that Leicester, Kings Lynn, and Belle Vue must be crapping themselves waiting for Sheffield and Ipswich to confirm if they are running in 2026 or not. Let alone hoping for a sixth team to rise from the ashes.

The 6th team options for the premiership are slowly running out. Cradley Heath doesn't look nowhere near ready, Peterborough Panthers update yesterday pretty much ruled out a return to the Showground any time soon. Glasgow announced their full championship line up today. Then you have the Sheffield/ Ipswich problems to even get it up to 4 or 5 teams. So this probably just leaves only the Northampton/ Oxford rumours. So slowly running out of options.

He also said, "we will definitely go ahead with the revealing as the AGM hold-up was to do with the premiership - the championship will go ahead as planned. We know what's happening and if it is decided that we go to one league, then the premiership will effectively come to us".

Redcar co promoter Jamie Swales said this week in the Speedway Star. Redcar are revealing their full 1 to 7 at their Christmas party on Friday 5th December.

He isn't on the bspl payroll. But he very much deserves to be, looks like he is doing far more to save speedway than the bspl are. He could potentially save their bacon.

Yes I went to the Mildenhall vs Peterborough Panthers meeting on October 25th this year. It was a Nora meeting, I liked the format, especially the the way the last 3 heats are run.

Nora here we come!

Yes true, I probably used the wrong terminology there. I'm sure they all pretty much have their teams sorted.

In the meantime it looks like the Championship is business as usual. Fair play to them. Berwick Bandits, No signings Edinburgh Monarchs, Dan Thompson Glasgow Tigers, No signings Oxford Cheetas, No signings Plymouth Gladiators, Scott Nicholls, Danny King Poole Pirates, Richard Lawson, Will Cairns, Fraser Bowes Redcar bears, No signings Scunthorpe Scorpions, Josh Pickering, Ryan Ingram Workington Comets, Jonas Jeppesen, Tate Zischke

Yes, putting the AGM back to Jan 6th seems like a very risky idea. Like you say most riders will want to be sorted with a team before then. I imagine Danish and Swedish clubs will be using this to their advantage and trying to entice riders who would otherwise have signed in the uk by now.

I was there last night, only the fact that Chris Louis and Ritchie Hawkins had stepped down got mentioned at the beginning, then Ritchie and Danny King went on to say how sad they were etc. But definitely no revelations as to why it had happened. They were keeping very shtum about it.
