You’re posting pics of the track before any work has taken place and declaring it a death trap!

They know what needs to be done to make it a speedway racetrack and like every other track in the country it will be subject to a full independent inspection before it’s granted a license from the SCB.

It amazes me, most people said this had no chance of happening, even suggested the 6th team was made up for the BSPL press release.  And yet when it is announced, rather than be happy that we have a new team in the league and we have a premiership of 6 teams, everybody can’t wait to mock it or tear it to shreds before it’s even opened. 
 

And you wonder why there isn’t a lot of people willing to run/keep a speedway track going for us?

Surely, anyone willing to run a speedway venue is not going to be so thin-skinned or woke as to be deterred by comments which are mainly observational, questioning, or humorous?

The Northampton promotion must be BSPL lack of information. No team announced. No nickname. No promotion announced 

secrecy and no engagement with the customers. Must be BSPL

From the press release:

"Premiership CEO Phil Morris said: “The people in charge of Northampton will make their own announcements in the near future but I know they have been talking to riders""

Wonder if this will be anything near the Northampton 1-7 for the coming season:

1 Jaimon Lidsey 7.87

2 Rohan Tungate 5.89

3 Nicolai Klindt 6.46

4 Charles Wright 6.11

5 Niels Iversen 6.71

6 Kye Thomson 3.95

7 Luke Harrison RS

Using the last updated 2025 averages including any reductions I think that the team total is 36.99

Who will head up the venture?

A promoter can't run two tracks can they?

Presume they will need a figurehead?

Chris Louis maybe???:o;)
