Where did that comment originate from.

Depends how you view it.

Could indeed be Batchelor who has ridden for Poole. Or viewed differently Bowes could be returning to UK for a second season and staying with Middlo. 

Its one of those thought provoking comments that can be looked upon depending upon how you interpret it 🙂

Final thought. Find it incredible that the British Speedway site has not made a single mention of the SPA AGM that is supposed to be taking place today, in which we await what will be the rules for 2026 despite many of us near enough knowing at least for the Champ.

Its stated as being the 6th January 2026 in this weeks Speedway Star.

Complete farce, don't care about keeping fans updated. No wonder it's a dying sport in this country. Odd though that Scunthorpe, Plymouth and Poole have made major signings, so they must know something

They set the 3-year points limit (40 points) at last year's AGM - subject to the same number of Championship clubs! Lets not forget that Scunny (Rob Godfrey) and Poole (Danny Ford) are 50% of the BSPL Board of Directors. They other 2  are Chris Louis and Damien Bates.

It's an absolute disgrace and shows the regard the BSPA (Clubs) have for their fans and complete lack of respect.

Speedway star announced it was obviously 12th November then changed to the 6th of January via the speedway star.

Nothing on the official BSPA website, which is poor and before the goody lot start coming back with 'its delicate and confidential' and that's why nothing can be said. Come on! they don't need to give details just give the supporters some basic information instead of radio silent and hope! 

Lets face it, Oxford and Birmingham didn't close yesterday! We have known since August (promoters knew longer than that) have they sat around for 8 weeks hoping someone will wave a magic wand and hope everything will be sorted, get real! It's a poor show and the fans deserve better.

Looks like you have to buy the Speedway Star these days to get any info

Why is it a disgrace?

How many other company AGMs do you know what's happening?

He's still listed as a director at Companies House but I know he wanted to step down!

Maybe its something that can only formally be done at an AGM?!😇
