There are only 10 gp's next season , 2 of which are at belle vue, leaving only another 8 gp Saturdays throughout the whole season, surely fixture planners could , let's say, plan the fixture list accordingly?

39 miles between the two, and 41 miles from the showground to Beaumont leys.perhaps share ho e meetings between the 2, much like Cradley did with Wolverhampton/ Birmingham, at least that way fans to the east have potentially a shorter distance for some home meetings, and the same for fans to the west

Perhaps they are getting signed just in case there is a u turn from what is expected, and there is only 1 senior league? Only need to look at Coventry and Peterborough in 2011 i think it was, they got shafted at the agm after pre agm plans were changed

Got to disagree there regarding race nights. I only live 15min away from the afa or saddlebow road but I absolutely hate Monday race nights, especially when I'm normally home about 18.30 and very often out at 4.30 in the morning. It means I'm nackered Tuesday and that doesn't start the week off very well. At least with a Thursday race night there's only Friday at work to get through!

Its the die hard fans that want to see the " big names" ,they won't attract any new supporters If only the die hards could accept that the racing can be really bloody good no matter what the level of racing is, so long as the riders are evenly matched, then british speedway stands a chance.if only The " its only a £ 10 sport if its nl level " brigade would accept that good close racing in a meeting is better value for money than " world no3 is half a lap in front but he's a big star" then things could be different .Yes , in an ideal world there would be a 10 team premiership with teams built to polish extra league standard, but its just not going to happen

On the bright side, at least there won't be riders missing on Thursdays after being recalled to Poland, on " our " day , that we gave up so the poles would relax their rules on the amount of riders trade they controlled

In light of the announcement from Poland that 2026 is the last season that their top 2 leagues will "allow" their riders to race in more than one extra league, surely bspl should have a massive re think and put plans in place NOW rather than a knee jerk next season?So much for the 'deal'giving some Thursdays to Poland in exchange for them allowing international riders to race elsewhere. Looks like we won't have gp stars after next season so might as well start planning now.Surely this must push us towards restructuring, as all the arguments about 1 league meaning the end of the big stars is surely irrelevant

Andrew Silver.Instantly recognisable.I was walking past the pits at rye house when he came out for a practice skid before the one season he had circa 2009? I hadn't seen him ride since he was at Swindon and clocked him straight away

I heard a similar rumour at lynn a couple of weeks ago

No we dont

What surprises me is that it was cancelled because it wasn't unanimous amongst the riders wanting to give it a go. I would imagine the likes of Danny King would relish the conditions, or at the very least adapt and do well whereas certain others possibly from the southern hemisphere may not fancy it. Reminds me of kings lynn 2017

Richard Lawson should be one of the first names on the team sheet

Jan is averaging just over 9 at home and just over 6 away

Exactly what I said on Monday, one old rule that shouldn't have been dropped

My thoughts on last night. Nic,Richard and Jan have kept the fixture alive basically. Luke did well in heat 2,but Puk, Bomber and lewi were very disappointing. On a more trivial note, I find inserts in a full priced program really annoying at the best of times but come on this is a knockout cup final, potentially a keepsake program so using one from a rained off belle vue meeting just sucks. Surely that could have been kept for the rescheduled day and given the fans a bit of a souvenir? Moan over. Good luck on Thursday lads
