  1. I think it is obvious that the Big Bumper Opening Meeting was just to try and get some money to pay off existing debts.Why would a business try to sell tickets for an Opening Meeting in a venue that still was in the process of being built 11 MONTHS before is opened.Strange decision IMO .Did they have to pay up front to get use of the venue when it opened.?
  2. Were the 4 lost home meetings never rearranged then?
  3. While the first meeting cancellation was a PR disaster, can't see where the big money loss from that meeting came from , surely they are only returning income that had already been collected.Ok a loss on some riders expenses but what else! Sounds as they did not pay any rent anyway!!
  4. Think Gappmaier would be worth a 5.Good home track man IMO
  5. He did make good progress last season but if you look at the riders he beat for his high scores it shows a different story,he was one of the best reserves in the league though.In the team will be totally different ballgame,I wish him well though.
  6. He's the 1 rider that we should be trying to hold on too.
  7. think your right. Thanks,was wondering about young Kyle Bickley thought he had signed something for Aces when he is old enough!
  8. Saw him get 17/18 points for Leicester a few seasons back he was flying that night,should be a good signing on that average.
  9. Now that there licence has been revoked,who owns the riders?
  10. I agree not well worded.I see it as total British newcomers who don't have an average 2 ,riders who have an average of between 2-3 pts will start on that average.If a rider who has an average but is under 2 pts will start on a 2.(could be wrong though, only MY interpretation)
  11. I assume the BSPA will release full statement in the near future will all the answers to the queries that confuses us normal punters.(or abnormal as some suggest)
  12. Whats new regarding rules in Speedway!! Like I said I believe you,but maybe for not much longer!!
  13. When you look at the pitch it looks as though you could pinch a few yards without affecting to size of the actual pitch but we all know it won't happen
  14. Think your right a few in NL were guests to protect their starting average next season so probably the same regarding PL.
  15. Will we ever know what went on.The general public don't get to know the conditions attach to deal even if a new broom comes in.Fantastic speedway faclility though has to be sorted out.
  16. It's typical of Councils nowadays ,they have a brand new facility and haven't a clue what to do with it.They just hope the money floods in.Probably be sold for housing in the future .
  17. You are restricting it to 32 riders though,don't understand your thoughts regarding the 6 GPs each. but you are entitled to your opinion
  18. Have to agree Lowering Team averages to save money should not be the issue,the Promoters are creating the problem themselves,bring in a standard rate if the riders don't like it too bad .Earning nothing means they have to find another job.The sport will continue.
  19. Im with you on that one.The only advantage is the Championship seems to be a Northern League barring Peterborough and Ipswich,which might help with travel costs etc,and more local derbies for the clubs.The rest just seems to be the usual fag packet stuff.
  20. Doubling up riders are going to cause a real fixture headache IMO .More guests than ever I fear.
