Their involvement is to acquire content for their TV channels and generate income from advertising & sub-licensing.   Unfortunately unlike other sports shown on TV such as football/Rugby/Cricket/Darts/Snooker/MotoGP/etc. there is insufficient money involved to actually feed down to grass roots or actually promote & grow the sport to a wider audience. 

I don't understand why everyone seems so interested in who the temporary number 7 may be. Knowing its going to be one of the weaker 2 pointers, ie one who can't get a full time Championship place elsewhere, is surely sufficient for the time being. Merry Christmas.😁

They have named the team in a fashion  Just not the team starting the season 

That’s an interesting view for him to take. He could maybe take the opportunity of the NDL to improve and then move up a league where he would have earned the right to be paid more!

Well Ford really is leaving it to the last minute to announce the team before Christmas, can't wait.  Happy Christmas to you all! 

I had a conversation with Elliot Kelly at the comets match at redcar last season. He said he has no plans to return to speedway at the moment due to a cap on wages. Whether that has changed or not, I do not know. Shame really as he was a good rider when he wasn't on his arse.
