The Olympic stadium hasn't been given away to a football club they are merely tennants for the next 100 years for X amount of days per year and thus are treated as such, London is where the big business is at and I feel that Speedway needs to be there to have a big positive impact on the sport here.
Maybe they could retain Cardiff as a European round?
No disrespect to Wales & Cardiff
However, The British GP needs to be taken to the Olympic Stadium in London for the sport to progress in the future in the UK, so it has a 60,000 capacity with retractable seating to allow a running track, unsure what would be lost capacity wise but you could end up with 40-50,000 seats being filled.
Question to ask really is.... Nicholls now.... compared to King, would he be scoring more in the PL? I think its a yes
Nicholls 9.54
Bridger 7.93
Covatti 7.83
????????? 5.48 maybe Morten can get his average down or Carl Wilkinson
Ashley Morris 4.65
Joe Jacobs 4.07
Connor Mountain 3.00
I can't see how British Speedway can have two divisions of 12 next season with promotion/relegation as the costs of the top division will mean nobody wanting to gain promotion, it has to be a north/south league all teams built using the same rules.
So on that basis, who would be the other 3 riders if its 7 rider teams, personally I think it will be 6 riders.
I think they will change the rules next year to allow the Brits to double up/down etc. it has been reported that the riders want to double up/down to earn more £££ easy money for Harris/Scott etc. just curious as to what would be left with the 6 at the moment
I still firmly believe that Covatti could be a no.1 next season, you don't get to the GP Challenge otherwise
Hope there is plenty of parking lol
Can someone in "the know" work out what would be left for next season under the current team building rules - using the latest averages (only difference is that all British riders can double up).
1. Scott Nicholls
2. TBC
3. Lewis Bridger
4. Ashley Morris
5. Nico Covatti
