Is It Finally Time For One League?
IainB replied to TheSmiler's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
250cc engines, 5 rider teams, one league, no doubling up, graded riders... Radical change to race format, maybe first 4 races programmed the rest left to the discretion of the team manager, team in front to choose first, inclusion of different format races within the match, one lap dashes, devil take the hind most etc. Full sponsored 2nd half with junior races -

He even seemed to bugger his start up off of 15 as well, probably 20 going into turn 1 π -

Although me and my big fingers may have typed too soon... first time Mr Dickson hasn't used Masters in heat 1 and it ran a last! How about having half point guests and their points counting double... so if a 6 point man is out, you get a 3 point guest in and any points they score count for double... I'm of course joking, aren't I? Remember you read it here first!!!! -

It doesn't say which regulation has been breached though.

SCB STATEMENT: WORKINGTON SPEEDWAY Thursday July 10, 2025 The members of the Speedway Control Bureau are delighted at the outcome of the Workington situation and would like to thank all concerned with those persons connected with keeping the club in the league for the remainder of the 2025 season. However, as with any other sport there are Regulations to abide by and in fairness to all the other clubs in the Championship League the Workington club did breach the Regulations. therefore as per the 2025 SCB Regulations have been deducted 2 (two) Championship League points.

Personally I think that is the answer, obviously it's not the whole answer but it's the foundation that you start from to rebuild British Speedway. Add this to a complete overhaul of the race format, race night experience and running on the night that best suits your business is at least a start. -
Maybe they're having "administrative issues" π€

Oxford v Ipswich Monday 7th July live on TV
IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Pointless having a team manager there then... there's little else for them to do -
And in Leicester and Sheffield's case the same promoter

Oxford v Ipswich Monday 7th July live on TV
IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I don't know whether he did or not but this is where you'd expect the team manager to step in and say we only need a 3-3 so don't idiot it up... from what I've gathered over the years riders often don't know the score -
Thanks for reply, that gives a great insight and is a real eye opener. All the best to Sonny and yourself in whatever you choose to do next.

I think Kostigovs might just win it π€π

IainB replied to racers and royals's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I'd say the exact opposite, a racing (instinctive) brain says (always) go for the gap a tactical (thoughtful) brain says settle for the 3-3 -

Doyley made an error that's all, he's only human, he had to make a split second decision and just got it wrong. Everybody walked away. -
I doubt Vuolas is employed by any club, he won't be PAYE with either Worky or Brum

Like he was on Saturday? -
I don't know, I mean good luck to him if it is his, he's given so many us so much entertainment through the years... but if it is his you have to question whether the sport is possibly paying too much out.

I did see that... and thought surely it's a rental, gotta be... hasn't it? The whole picture was a bit weird, not quite Paul Scholes trimming his daughters toe nails weird but a bit strange none the less.
