Richard Coleman has called out the bspl for full transparency and accountability on this subject in today’s speedway star

Lynn still very much in contention for the wooden spoon

Fantastic result for the witches. Normal service resumed for kings lynn

Well said. Enough is enough. Their priorities lie with stock cars.

Well done cooper on a paid max. Fantastic

Well done cooper on a paid max. Fantastic

I welcome streaming. I’ll always go to a live meeting at foxhall and I’ll generally purchase a stream when we ride away. Now the away fans can do the same. some fans who travel a fair distance might choose to watch a stream if the weather forecast is poor rather than take a chance of a wasted trip. £14 for a stream is better than nothing if they choose to stay at home.

So short sighted by the promoters. Sooner we have a independent body running the sport the better

He made the clubs adhere to a schedule to speed meetings up with set grading breaks. Introduced the centre green clocks. Had the sponsors banners made up in the pits so every club looked the same. Brokered deals with riders to ride in the premiership. For the grand final he had a magnificent looking stage not made of three pallets. Pyrotechnics and flames. Spoke to save Coventry stadium and offered to buy Ipswich with his own money. Introduced the media day. but apart from that not much. now the sport is imploding and going backwards under the current regime

My biggest fear is losing mayfield due to the cartel.

British speedway or world speedway? I hope not as he battled hard to raise the level of the sport. Seems like the cartel have won again

Obviously you were not there or watching the stream of the meeting judging by your comments. Lawson was on the outside of Thomson so how he stuffed him into the fence is impossible. you do talk uninformed guff.

I watched the stream as a neutral and it looked a 50/50 to me. No malice whatsoever by either rider

Under the current leadership the sport is doomed. They are running it into the ground.

Scott Nicholls ?

He attended the morning photo shoot but wasn’t available for the practice or meet the riders event in the evening

Having gone to meet the riders and having heard from the new promoters I have to say my first impression is that I think the club is in very good hands. Chris Louis had really pushed the club to new professionalism levels and commercial success. He and Julie deserve a lot of credit and I thank them both for their efforts Richard Coleman spoke very openly and honestly and he is definitely a very strong leader with a clear vision. He believes like most fans that the way forward is for an independent ruling body to stop the self interest ruining the sport. it’s going to be a very interesting seeing how the top table deal with this breath of fresh air.

He certainly thrived with the extra responsibility of being a number 2 at Birmingham and last year improved again. He looked very impressive at Lynn last week especially coming back from a broken leg.

Such a shame and shortsighted of whoever decided to axe it.

That speaks volumes of how well the BSPL promoted it !!! go on the website homepage and under the more option it will appear.

No media day this year and now they are ditching the British speedway podcast as well as a cost cutting measure. Apparently due to no tv deal. This is a great shame as it was a very good professional podcast It seems utter madness to not have either to promote our sport. We now have Northampton which is a fantastic boost for the sport but that’s a bigger secret than the Masons. What on earth do those supposedly running the premiership thinking of. We should be looking up to the levels of Poole and Glasgow rather than dumbing down to the levels of Scunthorpe two of the best things to emerge in the last ten years are BSN and Team GB Which shows what can be achieved with competent forward thinking management.

Be a great opportunity to start up some bikes and promote the new team to current customers of the stadium. Give out flyers as people enter the stadium. But we all know what is planned by the BSPL. Absolutely nothing.

Yes Colin Horton took over and threw money about. But allegedly made his money through insurance fraud on containers being lost at sea.

And I believe it was a deliberate ploy of sandhu. He knew he would ruin it and quickly.

Makes you wonder if the premiership have done this on purpose because no championship teams wanted to commit financial suicide and make the numbers up
