You are correct.   It was Rye House in 1988 who brought foreigners Peter Schroeck and Jens Rasmussen into the second division.   A massive disaster for British Speedway from which it has never recovered.

They had plenty of opportunities to not allow what eventually appened to actually take place..

Journeymen after journeymen, coming over and taking up places, using a revolving door and a short term outlook, whilst UK riders, who could have been developed, gave up..

What we have today, ie not enough UK riders, started there, but, even though it was glaringly obvious as to the end result, it never got rectified...

Where once riders doubling up was used as a development tool, it is now used to fundamentally keep the sport going in the UK...

An amazing lack of leadership and capability shown down the years .
