So how many this season? 9 league, 3 summer Cup, 1 koc Plus a few add ons Go figure

Lot of talk about the Thompsons and possibility of splitting them up. I don't think either has kicked on quite as many expected. I do wonder if splitting teams would help them find their own levels and identities and levels and kick the Danjoe image It can't have been easy for their parents with double the costs so made sense to reduce the travel costs and other costs. I think both can still reach significantly higher levels but time waits for no one and this winter might be time to split and stand on their own 2 feet.

It will be interesting to see what they come up with regards Team Limits. It may be better to focus on certain segments as well as any overall limit if the League were same numbers as now. E.G A max figure for 3 heat Leaders / or not allowed more than 2 over say 7.5, just to equal up strengths. However, if a few Clubs who have run in 2022, don't make it to tapes in 2023, and at least 1 moves up, and no one new comes in to CL , they may be able to increase points limit and have a more competitive League with slightly fewer Clubs Would an example 2 Leagues of 8 Clubs ( or a 7 and a 9) with Home and Away twice and no micky mouse summer add ons and a KOC be an option? 15 meaningful Home Fixtures guaranteed with 8 Clubs and Home and Away twice?

Why does everybody hate Poole?

Board of Directors then. They fulfil management committee functions do they not? -

HGould replied to FishersGate's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Usually a place on the management committee is earned. A number of years as a Promoter, nominated and seconded and voted on. Then along comes Danny King in his first full season as a Promoter, on the Management Committee in the same year. 2021. Can't think of anyone who has ever done that before. The number and calibre may not be what it was but on a management committee in any sport iand Speedway in year one is completely unheard of. Ford not King of course -

Maybe if he was straight with his peers and didn't go running to the Management Committee every 5 minutes and had earned his place on that Committee his peers wouldn't treat him as a backstabbing little wanabee -
Plymouth v Poole Tues 20/09 Play off QF 2nd leg
HGould replied to SteveLyric2's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
In your desire to nit-pick in the classic boring Poole way I think you're totally missing the point MILLIONS will inadvertantly sing "Queen" for quite a while as its etched on their subconscience Plymouth did not have a fixture until last night since Queen died, the minutes silence was for "the Queen" again, was it wrong to use the words that had been relevant for her since 1952. It''s a bloody good job they didn't play the second verse , that would have been "way too long" -

You'll have to excuse many of us older Speedway fans for singing "Queen" bymistake, many i know were born and have never changed since the late days of the Victorian era. -

Roynon rides for their ndl team and spanners regular there I think. Speedway updates seem to think Poole dirty tricks. Pulling Hans out Not sure how? -

They certainly aren't planning on making it easy. Good old fashioned passionate promoting and journalism Good Luck to Plymouth, I'm sure most neutral observers will be hoping for the miracle. https://plymouth-speedway.com/meeting-preview-the-gladiators-v-the-pirates-playoff-qf/ -

I think the respectful thing to do would be to wait for today's events to finish don't you? Plymouth is a Naval City after all is isn't it? Full of service families and ex service families. Besides they probably wanted to finalise team after British Final re Nicholls. -
British Final 2022
HGould replied to Hackett's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
It's a far better track to stage a British Final on than Monmore Green for sure. Let's not forget also that we all used to go to Brandon every year knowing we could fill our programmes in half way down the back straight first lap and barely see a pass all night. Brandon was probably too well prepared, Monmore just a trick shape. -
British Final 2022
HGould replied to Hackett's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Fate may help Brennan in the long run. Getting experience on 2 fast bigger Polish style tracks like Belle Vue and Glasgow. No disrespect but he'd not have done that if his main track was still a small trick track. He's also got very professional support now from Craig Cummings who is full of GP know how and global contacts. Beginning to show in his marked improvement.
