BSPL website Premiership and Championship club logo pages being updated atm. So expect some sort of announcement soon...........

Well if Oxford are riding in 2 leagues - as has been rumoured - then I hope they re-name one of the teams!! Scott Nicholls confirms he is only riding in Championship in 2024.

Clubs should operate at a level that is financially sustainable and build a team that meets that criteria!

Currently,except for occasional TV stipulations, and in recent seasons AFCB have held their midweek matches on Tuesdays to avoid clashing with Pirates Wednesday meetings. Hopefully the new American owners will continue with this arrangement as a good number of locals support both clubs!

Day 2 update - Tea and biscuits replaced by coffee and churros!

Plus they attract fans and sponsorship from areas well away from Poole (20, 30, 40 miles away) despite there being other professional sports in those areas!!

I believe the plan is for the AGM/Conference to go to Friday lunchtime.

But Dickie Bird has retired!!

...getting a last minute flight to Tenerife, I imagine!!

Quick - someone tell Lewy his evening's viewing enjoyment is well and truly sorted!!

A bar/restaurant/stand specifically for the greyhound/gambling fans!

After years of holding the AGM/Conference in UK (usually Rugby), who wouldn't want a change? Good luck to them all.

I think GS550 has a severe case of the Boxalls!!

He's Chief Executive of a section of BSP Ltd., so Yes!

It's probably where most of the main decisions will have been made!!

Said it before - Uk-based riders are more cost effective.

That was probably partially my fault. I was abroad and picked up on a conversation and simply got my weeks wrong. I blame the sun and booze!!

Its a Company AGM! The BSPL and the clubs have to submit their end-of-season financial accounts as well as declaring their intentions to run in 2024, as well as all the operational issues that need sorting. They can't do that the day after the last track action.

When the AGM is finished!

Theres nothing wrong with the track they have at Blunsdon!!!

So who out of Godfrey , Louis, Bates and Danny Ford are 'the mafia'?

Good luck to them all if they can sort out all the problems in a one hour meeting?! They don't even know for definite how many teams in each league - assuming there is more than one?! If they can sort all the sports issues then a couple of days in the sunshine is the least they all deserve!

This has also been put on the Swindon Stadium thread!

I'm sure all the number 6s and 7s thoroughly enjoy racing against them!

There's nothing wrong with Steve's pit crew!!
