Good signing always get 100% from Tero.

Thanks for the reply, it seems the damage was done on the first draft of the fixtures, then after that just got worse...

Not from me?

Yes indeed Peterborough were well and truly hit by injuries.

Who came up with the brilliant fixture list that may have helped this situation though?

Things that should have been done years ago are slowly getting through to promoters!, but many fans have long since left disillusioned by the sport.

Can’t remember the details , something like gradually increasing the loading (?) on riders doubling up.

5 year plan to gradually phase out doubling up .

All ifs and buts, engine failures, falls, injuries.......if Dan Bewley was fit.....all part of Speedway.

Welcome to Workington Steve.

Sheffield and Somerset Looking good so far, early days though

Not far away but cannot see Lambert travelling up to Workington again.

No surprise really, big changes for next season , hopefully we can keep Dan Bewley from last years team .

Can see big changes from last years team, the promotion hinted at 3 or 4 from last year will not be back , so with two of last years team already signed.....

Pot kettle.

At least £50k loss I think.

This will always be the case unless there is strict pay guidelines, even then sponsorship comes in to play, location of nearest airport and race night can influence a riders choice of where he wants to ride, there is the real point “ where he wants to ride”.

At the recent AGM was the fixture fiasco of last season addressed and if so what steps will be taken to stop any repeat next year?

Riders come, riders go, can’t really blame riders for going after the best deal for themselves. “Would you like to work for my company for a £50k salary or another company for £38k salary.” Not really helping the current situation regarding clubs staying solvent and reducing costs for all but clubs have different budgets and sponsors.

Who is the rider tempted away by £££s RJ?

Highlighted recently different rules in different leagues and different countries silly really, we should all be running to the same rules.

Seems to have used up a fair bit of the points limit I would have thought with Harris and Covatti, how much have they left to play with?

Cannot see a reduced admission at any track next year.

The fixture list in 2018(and I use the term loosely) must have been one of the biggest failures in Speedway last year.
