Can anyone explain how much money is the SKY contract is worth and how is it distributed? Soccer / Rugby are totally transparent.We know exactly how much each club receives. Why not speedway??? Lets establish the status of our sport. Why the secrecy????????

Totally agree with these comments. We are taken for granted plus the slickness of organising an FIM meeting disappears for the normal league meeting. Nevertheless,at present I will continue to put the club before any one individual. Changes required though!!!!!

How do we improve the set up of British speedway?? Surely we cannot continue to race across 5 nights per week. We want the best riders all of the time not some of the time. Sat meeting at Leicester v Swindon was a joke!!

Unfortunatley you could be correct. I"d like to know the stats for the Elite league 1st bend winners though. Each time I watch it on SKY the majority of races are settled after the first lap at the latest.Most after the 2nd bend.

Hey guys, Watch sky on July 14th and actually see a full stadium for the 1st time in recent years for live speedway!! Full team out and I expect 55 points min. Lions roar again.

The fast track scheme if set up correctly will only benefit British speedway. Nothing more pleasing than to watch the progress of Max Clegg at Leicester. A definite future under 21 champion. However what is the point of fast tracking a 25 year old with 10 yrs racing experience???. We must refine the draft system and we must include the premier league. If a young rider is fast tracked into the elite league he must also have the ability and oppertunity to ride in the premier league. Maybe Elite league should employ pool one draft riders one per team with a guaranteed doubling up spot in the premier league. The premier league to employ one rider from pool 2. We must also make sure that we do not leave riders like Ashley Birks out in the cold. I hope the powers that be refine the system so that it supports progressive young riders.

Big Leicester lions fan and have not missed a home meeting since we came back. Massive thanks to David Hemsley. Think though maybe we should call off Saturday meeting now that Davey Watt out as well as 3 main team lions.

Surely its time elite league had its own race night. Lets stop being too british whilst employing riders whose main income comes from mainland Europe. All teams race on the same night. I believe all fans would still turn up. Especially if all the top team riders are available!!. We love our racing but are fed up with being short changed. We really have to be more inclusive of the BIGGER speedway family
