effin hell give the lad a chance,....hes just what the NL should be about..Good luck to the lad

A fair point,but i bet you if you looked at the losses last year by having a poor team,ill bet you a pound they were comparable with the losses during 2011 with they had what i think was the best team in the league that year,huge points scored home and away by the likes of Parker,Ashworth and Auty wouldnt have come cheap Its a vicious circle,and at the moment i honestly think sticking to a strict budget is the way to survive,and i think,reading between the lines,surviving is the most important thing in speedway at the moment,not just at Sheffield
-
So you think it is the right think to do then,to sign a team over budget in the hope that fans come flooding back to finance it??? thats isnt how it works,ask the fans of Newport and various others
-
But maybe that rider on an 8.41 average is beyond the financial reach at the present time Its so easy to sit on pull things to peices without knowing what bubget they have to work with,unless SKJ you are going to inject some cash???
-
Sticking to a budget they can afford,maybe that was what they were thinking???

Unless hes 18 he cant claim patrality according to border agency -
If he aint ready now he never will be!!!! 3rd year NL should be heat leaders at the very least

If i were a Sheff fan i would want Hall back,,,,Sheff need to get back to not getting beat at home,and Hall is so good around there,plus great to watch,The PLRC would have been a bit dour without him.......

In other words....."ive just saved about 10k running an NL team out of Hoddesdon.Kent can have it!!!"

So 21ST how has Mr Greenwood put the record straight,,are you saying RG is a liar with his reply on the scunny forum?? I no for a fact that Scunny didnt pull out for financial reasons....you no why....a group was prepared to underwrite the loss of 2013 to allow the team to keep running.....but after a meeting or two it was deemed a waste of time as riders who we wanted to build the team around had been got at -
I have just now......and i suggest YOU read the post following it bloke......facts dont lie!!!!!!

Hence is transfer request a month ago.......tap tap

What Stoke fans need to remember is that they would have be screwed without Scunnys NL work this year,One bright spark you had was Birks,and then you cant even pay him..........The NL has been such a success for Stoke hasnt it It matter not who is in the league,who develops the riders, or who pays what,crux of the matter is the league is dying....slowly yet most are so blind they cant see it a plod along doing the same There is a place for Dudleys ,the FenTigers and the likes of Buxton,Lynn and i hope Scunny,but there has to be compromise in what the league is about -

Although good points,the National league always was a league to start off in and hopefully move up to better things,now,and lets face facts,its ruled by teams who have dropped out the PL or Dudley who i thought were using it to progress,and progress they seemed to have, but dispite alot of talk havnt moved up to the PL, what is happening now is the double up clubs and Buxton cant match the stand alones,so are folding.......soon the stand alones wont have anyone to play with,you have lost 3 teams in three years now If the change that has happened is good or bad remains to be seen,but they are the facts and i get the idea that the standalone teams,as good as they are are only papering over that cracks and stciking there heads in the sand and kidding themselves that all is ok......when clearly it isnt Unless something is done the NL will fail, as the league and speedway as a whole needs the likes of Scunny,Buxton and and other double up clubs who have dropped out -

i dont think you could blame the BSPA to be honest because at the end of the day the BSPA are the clubs,so maybe point the finger at them ,i.e all of them would have to agreee to it,Joe must feel a little hard done by though with his parent club using a 3 pointer and over looking him but that Louis call,maybe it will work maybe it wont I think Jayne from Buxton made a valid point on a previous thread that the money in the NL these day tips towards riders staying in the NL for easy money rather than wanting to progress They have to find a way of getting rider like Perry,Nielsen etc out of the NL and on to a better standard of racing quicker,
