Don't see how you can force anyone to move up imo, unless the others are willing to pay for any losses that club has. Riders wages seem to be the biggest issue here. Sure i heard somewhere that Chris Harris would be on double what he is on in the championship. So no wonder why Glasgow don't want to move up! Just because their owners have a lot of money doesn't mean they want to lose some of it on a league that looks like it is crumbling. If they need a championship team to move up then they need to compromise on some of the deal breakers, if that is even possible.

Exactly one of the reasons why no one will move up. A team of riders who other teams don't want. Great plan 🙄🙃 You'd think some of the Prem promoters would use their brain a bit more if they are desperate for a sixth team.

This one? Something about not definitely yes but not a definite no. Sounds like they are looking into it. Interesting to hear that their crowds are the same whether it's championship or premiership.

Very grown up. Riders will ride for whoever they want. British League Cup? Around 2003 i think. Carl Johnson talked about it on speedway 360 podcast.

Sounds very similar to Swindon. Only key difference is council own land the stadium is on. Fingers crossed can keep them on side.

Didn't he double up for Leicester and Plymouth?

If they want us to move up it does. Maybe we could move up in 2027 as Danes riding in Poland will have Denmark as their other league. So no UK. Frees up Weds!

And there it is in a nutshell 👆 Also without a tv deal no club in the championship is even going to consider it.

😄 What's wrong with them moving up. Shows ambition. 👍 Well, may as well get all the top riders over here for one season until the new Polish rules in 2027 stop a lot coming over.

I think it is more of the Prem that is the issue. Not enough teams. No tv deal. League sponsor? Interesting to see if Redcar announce all of their team in Dec at their Xmas party if AGM is in Jan 🤷‍♀️

What was that like? 😉🙃

No, but the Prem a bit of a rubbish show these days. Plymouth can move up if they want, I don’t mind. * Okay, I didn't put rubbish but whatever 🙄 😂*

Until someone agrees to move up?

It must be 99.9% certain if Redcar have let King go. If there was any doubt of it going ahead then surely they would have waited. Not sure what to make of this Rowe stuff. Skidder and POP seem to have opposing opinions on what has been said. We have on one hand a big sized hole to fill for 7th rider after being let down by that rider and then 7th rider nearly finalised. Not sure how both can be accurate unless they had a very productive weekend!! 🤔 🤷‍♀️ Personally not sure about Rowe as a no5. But depends who everyone else has as a no5. Would rather Zach stayed. But will support whoever is signed.

Gotta love it when Plymouth fans are worried about the Poole team. 😄😄😄 Plans must be going well.

If you watch some of the 'Darcy Ward's best races at Poole' youtube video, there is more fans watching near bends 1 and 4 then there is now, so probably 1k less. But I think everyone had bigger crowds between 2010-2015 than they do now anyway.

Might be some news next week about Sheffield.

For what?

For once I am good at a prediction!

So why are Poole, Berwick, Glasgow and Redcar been complaining all season about too many long gaps between fixtures then

That's because Mitch is good friends with Will Cairns. And also him and Luke stay with Laura's parents when they are in England and as she was working for BSN so they prob just travelled down with her.

You may joke but I like Batch, he's welcome at Poole any time whatever Shov thinks! 👍 I know Plymouth are hardly going to announce Lawson but be a bit awkward if they did. Plymouth announce him at 7pm and then it's the Poole end of season party the same night lol.

Maybe you are on the wind up. 😄 As you know he posted a Danish and English flag.

Going to go for Danny King.

Yeah, I get that lol. I meant if it was Prem and Champ like now, why would they do 6 man teams? Unless they wanted less riders to do both leagues.
