And that’s exactly why the speedway rule book is so cluttered. Every time a smart move occurs other jealous promoters devise a rule to stop a further occurrence. We desperately need independent control of our sport before it dies.

Lightcap would return on a 4 for next season if he doesn’t do enough meetings to attain an average. The cynic in me thinks he was introduced at the appropriate time to not attain an official average.

It’s not the amount of points scored that is the problem. It’s the late arrivals missing track walks and parades. Not going for victory laps when asked. Dirty bikes and twice just not turning up giving very little notice. Michael lee was more reliable.

Very good choice of guest for the witches. Looking forward to this.

Do we know who made the decision to give the ban. Was it Pooles very own Neil vatcher

You would have thought they would have all agreed on how best to promote it. All have failed miserably

I’ve shared the advert on my facebook urging people to tune in. But why haven’t the promoters of every club not been posing every day running up to the event asking fans to like and share with a CHANCE to go into a draw for free tickets. Lasts years final should have been reposted by all clubs and ask the fans to share and repost again. Costs nothing but another failed opportunity to really push the biggest chance to promote the biggest advert on terrestrial tv. these promoters are not fit for purpose. Couldn’t organise a car boot sale.

I believe it was the world final at Bradford in 1985

Fantastic news and maybe every fan could like and share on each social media platforms that they use to give maximum publicity for huge viewing figures. I just hope the cameras don’t pan too closely in on the trophy as in true bspl style as it’s engraved with a spelling mistake. Instead of championship it’s championsIHp if you don’t believe me zoom into the photo on the bspl advert and check it out. goodness how long it’s been like that as we noticed it when Danny king won it and displayed it at foxhall

Is this to do with a incident at a stock meeting and possibly litigation?

Seeing Luke,cooper and will on BSN is always a joy. So enthusiastic and loads of charisma. Great to see them progress. Darren Thompson dad of the twins is always brilliant with letting kids have photos on the bikes. I guess once the pressures of deadlines of getting to airports starts it unfortunately changes things.

I’d love to see Northampton get 3 points personally. Kings Lynn will battle to get another wooden spoon.

When was the last time you went to Plymouth ? the track has been significantly widened on the bends and on the straights

And no tactical substitute rides in the koc

I think both legs will very close. I’m expecting a Leicester win on aggregate but hoping the witches can battle to a overall win

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
