Championship Statement

[Colsimmo58]

Well a statement concerning the Season 2027, has been issued and guess what, NOTHING has changed except the 1 x 8 Point rider has gone

Everything else stays the same. Same number of teams, Same BSN Cup, K.O.Cup  and league format  1 HOME , 1 AWAY

So much for big changes, MY A*SE. Treat the fans exactly as last season, fixture list will probably read 1 home match every 3 /4 weeks

during the summer months.It could end up with 1 team only having 11 home matches all season.

The fans wanted 2 home/2 away, but the promoters have decided otherwise,so its a case of F*ck what they want.

Didn't Chris Harris say that if there isn't 2h 2a next season he was going to retire?

Speak for yourself. Maybe trying running an NDL team for a few more home fixtures, and helping out the youth development at the same time.

As far as fixture planning goes, at least promoters don't have World Cup clashes to avoid.

With little else changing I wonder if admission prices will also stay the same?

Obviously Poole's will or you wouldn't ask.

2 home 2 away fixtures would be financial suicide for most clubs, far better having very little gaps in the fixtures, have 1 home one week 1 away the next week . So 2 home fixtures a month may help in the financial circumstances for many people, so they could still attend, get all fixtures done by the  of August and play offs cup finals for the August bank holiday weekend or 1st few weeks in September

What's the point in a Rising Star scheme in the Premiership but not the Championship.

RS in the Premiership should be any under 21 Brits, so Cairns, Rushen, Harrison, Scott etc

RS in the Championship should be any under 21 Brits with a Championship average below 3.50, so Southwick, Fletcher, Vale, Norman etc

And perhaps a second Rising Star in the championship who is an Under 21 Brits but with no average limit. So Rushen, Cairns, Harrison, Hodder etc. just to have more young Brits riding.

Nice idea and makes sense. 
So no chance it’ll happen I’m afraid

So where’s the money coming from to fund 2 Home 2 Away ? Some people just don’t get it: speedway is on its knees, but you still want more – ffs, get real.

Is that the same as the regular season price or the same as the increased price for the playoffs?
