Until speedway has a credible product it will be difficult to get the tv coverage it needs. You won’t attract a decent sponsor until the tv deal is in place. we need two equal sized leagues with promotion and relegation so all meetings are relevant. Champions of the league decided by who tops the league and play offs for promotion and relegation. for this to truly work it must be run by a independent board with financial backing for the teams getting promoted to not only survive but to actually compete with the others

Every speedway club last year lost money apart from Poole and Ipswich which is probably only down to extra play off meetings with large crowds. this season there is no tv money so every club is £70k down before a wheel has turned. Sheffield have lost their main sponsor so that’s possibly another £20k down. Also the cost of starting up of Northampton is possibly being shared by the promotion too so further funding diminishing. But the BSPL have a cunning plan. Simply cut the points limit and loose a few top riders while at the same time put up admission. now this has been done about 28 times previously failing miserably and losing more disillusion fans each time so it’s very likely to work in 2026.

He was also the only rider to not do a victory lap after a victory despite being told to do so.

I have a feeling that Ipswich won’t.

It’s been widened significantly in the last two years

Was it something like 30k torun paid Peterborough

Mildenhall have got a air fence rather than the poly foam fence that Scunthorpe Lynn Berwick and Northampton use which is the biggest difference and slightly worryingly have purchased the old air fence from Ipswich which is not fit to use as it’s over ten years old now.

Totally agree. Said exactly the same when he signed

Most definitely. The cartel are worried

Is Paul Bowen still involved with these bikes ? Before all the dinosaurs rear up they won’t be replacing the traditional engine. If any riders can now access tracks to practice seven days a week without causing any noise it can only be a good thing very interesting to note that the BSPL have not put anything about the forthcoming announcement on their website. Again.

That’s correct. Deane wood had done a deal with the owners many years ago for a multi million sum which was accepted only for them to go back and try and get a higher sum. The deal collapsed and they remain owners

To be fair although Tom is riding at one we all know it’s a level above at this point in his career. Don’t forget he has also returned from a double leg break I’m sure he has maintained his average so far too. I think once someone else is at one Tom will flourish again

Great viewing. Thanks for sharing. definitely need a independent body running the sport. Phil morris and Chris Louis ?
