2026 Premiership is Go! - At least 5 teams


Recommended Posts

Well tomorrow is the big day, we finally get to hear the massive news springing from the depths of Barnsley and personally I am beside myself with excitement, will it be 5 laps, will it be no more tear offs allowed, will it be a new team in crimond in north east Scotland ? Or will it be the biggest let down ? Hope we can all sleep tonight with all this excitement

It’s all over the news tonight……they are there discussing what biscuits are coming into Barnsley over night & if there will be enough tea & coffee. 
 

The local residents that were interviewed couldn’t believe that Barnsley had been chosen to stage such a huge high profile conference.

Tomorrow is such a big day!

I'm predicting the let down bit 🤔

5 teams all with 'junior' teams too to fill in the gaps...

Colts, young stars, lion cubs, steelers and an Ipswich side?? To run a Premiership 'junior' league

I suspect the groundhog will just get bigger in size?

Ipswich to run 1 match at the very end of the season? 😉

I think it will be a case of the headless chickens syndrome. Crisis, mismanagement and incompetence sum up the way those in charge have attempted to control and run the sport. Sad to say that the grass routes of the sport and fans UK wide have been shafted by those in charge and treated with so much contempt you wonder how they have the audacity to charge anyone to watch a meeting. The BSPL have failed the sport, the riders who are left high and dry as they cannot agree deals with sponsors etc because of the lack of decision making and ultimately the supporters who you wonder why they bother attending a meeting when you are ignored and have no voice and those that run the clubs take your money but really could not care less about the customer base. A case of sod you but gives us your money.

Whatever happens, It'll still be better than the One Big League nonsense that some members were advocating for.

Can't sink any lower than seeing a Top British League Team featuring No Show Craig Cook at No.1 whilst being backed up by Aaron Butcher and Jack Smith at reserve.

Yeah, give me the PL featuring no show Ben Cook at No1 (or Jack Holder or Brady Kurtz... or insert the name of your favourite No1) backed up by Joe Thompson and Sam Hagon at reserve 😁

I really hope that the majority of posters on here do not represent the general speedway supporter! There is so much negativity that, if I were a potential Premier promoter, I would say "I don't think I'll bother".

Whatever you think of those who run speedway, they are doing much, much, more than sitting in front of a keyboard, sniping at those who do get off their ar*e and they risk their own money!

Surely you can't think everybody has done a stellar job and the sport is going from strength to strength?

Clearly not what he is saying...

How do you interpret it?
