THE DEAN MACHINE

Exactly the way Mike lemon was talking in the star last week was like his life depended on the premier league, no matter what or how delusional it is it’s got to happen, I think if you had a piece of land at the back of your garden they would call you up to see if you could be the 6th team

Except some are more equal than others

To be honest mate I think it will lose everyone, nobody wants it except it seems a couple of promotions

We do it at 8pm but it’s not live, should be available on Friday

It doesn’t look good and I don’t think we have hit the bottom of the barrel yet, maybe the bspl will realise the error of their ways, or maybe not

Firstly just let me say I’m disgusted at the way the public is being treated by the bspl, I won't say this particular rumour because it betrays the trust of those at the coal face so to speak and they will know where it came from and wouldn’t tell me anything else, I also like to see if anyone else has heard anything along the same lines on here ,once something becomes public knowledge then I’m ok with it, what if the rumours are not true ? It spreads like wildfire and people end up with egg on their face

Has it been posted on here ? I haven’t seen it. As I posted this I realised you don’t know what rumour I’m talking about and I don’t know what rumour you’re talking about 😂

Well as one top rider said they won’t be available come January they will sign up for other leagues

I hear rumours which would make the whole 2 tier system is well and truly doomed, now they are only rumours so I’m not going fuel them until I know it’s true

I’ll have a word with him tonight

I think the ideal solution would be to keep the big names, nobody wants to lose them but if it is the only way to go then so be it

I’m back on the 360 podcast tomorrow night with Simon lambert, Stuart Robson and Andrew Bain, I will be giving my pennies worth about what I think about the dire situation we are currently in

We all have but we did hope

I’ve heard from 3 people within the sport now tell me Harry Redknapp was just a publicity stunt nothing more so there goes that dream of a Netflix series coming to save the day

If the bspl get there way, come march we are going to have our equivalent of the Cambridge Oxford boat race, belle vue v Ipswich

Be honest, if you had a couple of million to throw at sponsoring British speedway, with the current state of the sport and knowing all your doing is giving it too the bspl or speedway futures (same people) to jizz up the wall again would you ? I know I wouldn’t not in its current business model

I’ve often wondered how much ford, bates, Louis, Godfrey, morris and the secretary’s wages come too every year ? Got to be honest I would do it for half

They are desperate so wouldn’t put anything past them

Yes if he would ride for rising star money because his performances during his stint in the uk just about warranted them

I wasn’t on this week so not sure but I think it was episode 3 of 3, haven’t had chance to listen yet but we talked about it on our what’s app group in the week

Whoever it is there will have to be a huge carrot dangled infront of them and unless either tv deal or betting deal or sponsor deal on the table that ain’t happening

Peterborough

They do and I don’t blame them, the championship is sustainable but unfortunately the premier league is desperate and either Peterborough or a current Championship team is going to be sacrificed to prop the league numbers up

If we were a sport just starting out, none of these financial issues of the riders would be a thing but because riders have become accustomed to what they earn and have sort of become complacent it’s now a problem when they are faced with being reigned in

I’ve never said I’m right, I know some especially on here are sometimes way off the mark because I MAY know the facts but I don’t need to correct them, it’s a forum, it’s opinions, nobody is right or wrong, promoters are in the main decent folk with the odd exception, I read all posts and look to what people are saying and at the end of the day my opinion is a valuable or useless as yours even without quoting someone to get your point over
