"We have had our first meeting and it was brilliant. It was great to hear from every tracks' delegates that the sport is superbly led, and that each meeting they attend is truly an amazing event that simply couldn't be improved, and provides incredible value for money"... "It was noted though that all the delegates clearly felt that more guests were needed to add more credibility to the league, so that is something we can definitely look at improving"..

Phil Morris, will not be prepared to allow clubs "yes people" to continue for very long as a Voice representative if all they do is say "everything is great at my club" nor will he tolerate folk who see this as a forum to moan, complain about everything being rotten to the core as far as Premiership speedway is concerned. He will be looking to work with representatives who take a balanced view to the current situation and can provide feedback on current topics and potential additional concepts for the near and far future. This is a great idea and should be applauded not shot at. Edited November 23, 2023 by 1 valve 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It isn’t negativity, it’s reality sadly. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Barrow Boy 2 Posted November 24, 2023 Author Report Share Posted November 24, 2023 On 11/17/2023 at 11:13 PM, szkocjasid said: If you look at the averages of the best 7 "riding stars" they are fair aves for reserves imo, so shows the quality is there to continue with the RS system imo. If they all averaged below 3.00, I'd agree the system doesn't work in the Prem. J.Jenkins (4.21) D.Kemp (4.04) L.Flint (4.00) A.Rowe (3.76) D.Thompson (3.70) D.Gilkes (3.67) C.Bailey (3.57) Biggest flaw this year was clubs not using the best options, so a couple of riders may have been out of their depth. Even if there's injuries, still riders like Jack Thomas, Jason Edwards, Henry Atkins & Ashton Boughen waiting in the wings. Getting off topic now, So for Leicester, I'd go with Kemp as my RS. Leicester will first chance to retain Drew Kemp. All BPL teams are allowed to retain their 2023 rider if they and the rider wishes do they not?

If not offering a place then I believe you are correct Having said that it is pretty much a free for all whatever the rules - politics and finance override the regs...... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are looking to sell season tickets at the Open Day and it might occur to the management that fans would be more interested in seeing who new riders are rather than what the new logo looks like. My contacts in the know have advised me that the new logo will almost certainly be ……a Lion! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
