They weren't bar a few cameo mentions when Nigel Pearson was their football commentator and Nige was never slow to plug speedway so I wouldn't think so but certainly worth another enquiry
He doesn't say but putting 2 and 2 together maybe the new rumoured team won't have their track ready and/or its cheaper to run at an existing venue
No idea if there's anything in it
As Sheffield proved when trying to replace Woffinden getting better riders over appears to be virtually impossible.
It may of course be different if there were plenty of money to throw at it which there clearly isn't, doubly so now there's no tv money
I can't see a few hundred from Wolves if I'm honest. 50 to 100 maybe at the absolute limit
I understand your argument though.
How far is Northampton from Coventry?
It's a long way from Wolverhampton so that might not attract many (any) Wolves fans especially on a weekday night.
I certainly wouldn't see the previous Wolves promotion being interested
Their statement specifically mentions the 2026 championship.
Unless of course the one league is to be called the championship...
If one bloke knows it should be Godfrey
Presumably the championship are trying to address the issue that has now blighted the Premiership where the outcome of the league is clear before a race is run
If it spreads the better riders throughout the league and stops the top 3 or 4 from signing effectively 2 number 1's then I'm in favour
