You will never have integrity as long as you have the 'Play Off' system. No team should have to win the League twice - it makes it a joke.

Getting rid of the 'Play Offs' would also mean less fixtures at the end of the Season, meaning that the Leagues would finish earlier and fixture congestion would not be so much of a problem.

Remember, when Speedway started there were no 'Play  Offs' and it survived, some may say thrived.

Not thriving now though - is it?

The Championship doesn't have a "TV deal" as such, so no need for Play-offs 😛🤣

Unless fans stop attending play off meetings, then they will stay.

So Ipswich and Glasgow 27 average and most of the others 29, what do you have against those teams?

Don't think a Glasgow fan has anything against Glasgow!! Think they were just giving a rough guideline on how it could be, rather than exact?

Nothing against them. Could have spent a couple of hours juggling the teams to make them more equal but tried to pick riders that had some association with the team. The point I was trying to show is just  how watered down the teams would be. I'll ask again , how much would you pay to watch two teams at this level? And following on how much per point would riders expect. Can't see this ending well...but ending quickly!

I think it's an illustration rather than an expectation of actual teams 

Horrific!!

Anything close to line ups such as those would be the end of British Speedway
