My point would be is that we shouldn’t be make up ANY rules regarding reducing averages.You are just opening the usual can of worms that devalue the sport as professional. A rider’s average is his average .simple.
-
He turned down offers before the season started though.Cant have it both ways surely.Introducing rules that can be manipulated as usual.

What about Northampton?

Totally agree.The situation regarding Premiership is a shambles.Where all these new fans are going to appear from and stick around. Given Ipswich success last season why Louis decided to pack in says it all for me. -
Like you say no way should Ablitt should be given a reduction. Same should apply to Garrity given the reason he was lost to the sport. The sport is becoming a laughing stock and cannot be taken seriously anymore,certainly not going to attract many newcomers.

I certainly can’t see how there can be any criticism of BSN , you bought a package your were watching do roughly £ 5 a meeting. Race coverage was generally 1st Class and the Presentation Package on the night was excellent,unlike some Presenters on Discovery( no names) who hadn’t a clue on what to ask a rider.

The thing is it’s frustrating with late deliveries but there a fair difference in the price between Supermarkets and Subscriptions.You know most of the up to date news online anyway,I accept it as just a good read for GB Articles but I like the Foreign content now as it is a lot more interesting these days.Keep up the good work SS.

Don’t think things are going to plan. Squeaky Bum time I reckon.
-
By next season they will probably have a reduction depending on what type of injury riders have.Its all back of a fag packet stuff making up rules.👎
-
Sad news very decent rider.
-
Majority or the riders he will be riding against are the same ones he will ride against in Championship, got to start some where.
-
He not really raced many riders that are Championship standard yet though. We will have to wait and see on that one.
-
It’s a very poor Premiership. How they couldn’t have worked out a One League situation .
-
Basically your dropping an out and out No1 for a strength in depth Team though. Can’t have it both ways with lower limit.

Comes with a spare bulb.

Should not be allowed Guests or R/R for riders missing due to other riding commitments for starters.That might changes Promoters mindset on who they sign.
-
And that’s mainly due to averages.Just the usual same as.No forward thinking.
-
You certainly don’t want to 5-6pt rider these days.
-
The averages are killing the sport,have been for years.
-
Will he score more is the question.🤔
-
Worrying times for Premiership.IMO Even if they are still running someone Bank Balance is going to take a big hit.
-
If there was one more call off you could have been in the Aussie Title Line up.🤔
-
Unless there are some big surprises that doesn’t look a Top 4 Team .IMO Happy to be proved wrong though.

2026 Premiership is Go! - At least 5 teams

That’s the big problem in the sport.Riders demanding an Annual Salary for 6 months work.Wage demands are out of control.It is a Sport and not a career. -

Pursuit of Speed is not the main factor on speedway bike.IMO Its about set up,large numbers of riders waste money paying tuners for something they can’t ride too it’s potential.
