Great point. I guess the BSPA will just reduce the point limit further to accommodate the Championship HLs and anyone else from the NL. Personally, I'd go back to the days of the 49-53 point limit (late 80s I think) in an attempt to get the better riders back on higher averages. As we seem to be heading to an amateur type league, if promotion have deep pockets why not go out with a bang...!

KK can perform on any track on any day of the week, it's just whether he feels like it at the time. Have seen him several times as a number 1 run 2 lasts and then make everyone look like an amateur in the next 3 races. A very likeable chap but ultimately frustrating at times

The one rider who has shown loyalty in spades to British speedway despite being shat on from a great height at times, and you call him deluded for chasing a dream to be the best he can whilst trying to earn a living? I know who's deluded...

I get your point but I think a telling thing is that those names you mentioned are now no longer involved either, so didn't really do them any good...

Absolute nonsense. As usual.

Cradley been looking for land for decades without luck in roughly the same area, and yet CVS might have found somewhere within weeks of being told that their out of Monmore...??

Seemed strange to me that the camera by the start line couldn't focus on the leader at all, but could on 2nd and 3rd. A lot of gate and go from memory and bar a Harris pass and the last heat crash, I can't recall anything interesting tbh.

Depending on how long they think Nielsen will be out for, I'd expect Dan to be joining his brother very soon at Brum

Joe Thompson will replace Proctor

Joe be in for Proctor then

I thought it was announced at Leicester on Saturday that Pedersen had gone and Lindgren was in??

Can't name a rider but Swindon did it as a club...

Because I know where he would position himself and he's too professional to put this out there...

It should still be the photographers photo they use or theirs no point in having him there, official twitter page or not

This always annoys me, team looking at the official photographer whilst someone grabs a pic with a phone just to get it on social media first

Speedway has been around since 1928 and we still push the bikes to start them! Of course we can ignore the future.....

Tbh, your never going to get a worldbeater this late in the day and on this sort of average but it could be a lot worse than Proctor. Get behind the lad at least!

I know I'll get shot down in flames, but the times I have spoken to Nicki at length he is a really nice and engaging person. Obviously I wouldn't want to race against him tho....

Where do you think the photos all come from for the first programme of the year? The photos in the track shop? Photos in local papers and Speedway Star? All from press day. Personally I think press day should be limited to the club photographer and media team with the riders

Roynon shouldn't really be in this league should he, but he'll earn a stack of cash, double his average and lap most of the riders....

I'm sure the Birmingham management read this forum so I'm a bit surprised that they haven't nipped any rumours like this in the bud. A simple statement reassuring fans that Morris won't go missing will do.

Basically making it up as they go along...

Not a cat in hells chance that speedway will continue at the Abbey and even less likely a new stadium will be built. Its a crying shame but I don't see enough desire from anyone to force the issue and the likes of Osbourne and Russell will do alright out of it all despite their bluster that they are on speedways side
