Ipswich I assume under new owners,  remember Louis said he wouldn’t go champ or if it’s a 5 team league he will step away.  no one wants to see a 5 teams league. Would be the worst decision ever.  just hope it’s a just a rumour. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it IS a five team league, they’re simply going to have to change the rules and do away with play offs for next year at least. Top team wins the title. It’s the only way. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great as far as I am concerned. So something good, at least, will emerge from this current debacle we find ourselves in. What's left of out great Sport will at least, be credible and have some sort of integrity.. It makes me really sad to see how things have gone. The thing is that most of our problems are self inflicted. Edited 16 hours ago by The White Knight Forgot a couple of points Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Only what they want. They probably going to sit there til 6th Jan until someone agrees to move up. We are basically as you were on Nov 12th, so delaying sounds like a massive waste of time right now 😔 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The issue with speedway is the third party happens to be your competitors and not an independent body. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I will stick to the PCMM, the two GP's and (maybe), a Play Off meeting... And not bother going anywhere else to watch, as I have been to the other four tracks several times... Just imagine the euphoria though in the town or city of whoever wins the prestigious title of "Speedway GB Premiership Champion"?.....

gjcone44 Posted 7 hours ago Report Share Posted 7 hours ago ill still go to a few meetings, but not as many as last year, probably do a couple more trips to Poland just as much for the atmosphere as the racing., be interesting to see what format they have if its only 5 teams. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

LisaColette Posted 6 hours ago Report Share Posted 6 hours ago Poole and Worky are announcing signings soon so seems that championship is as you were, so seems what Phil is saying is likely. Unless Championship teams are getting their teams publically known before any other teams come into the league. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
