TTT

Defended him but Chris Louis has to take the brunt of the blame now imo. Basically a spur of the moment Club sale that's caused this clown show to drag on and on to a point where it's had an impact on the entire League. He should've put together a 1-7 and remained the owner for 2026 and allowed proper time for a sale to go through. Instead it's all been a very messy job in a race against time, Every statement just results in continuous delays and it has caused Mayfield to be a rabbit in the leadlights whilst leaving Ipswich as a Club on the backfoot. It has also had a knock on effect for the entire League where nothing has been confirmed in regards to League Structure and Fixtures to a point where nobody can get some much needed early season funds in by shifting some season tickets because nobody knows how many bloody fixtures they'll have at Home.

Jeppesen if the No.6 will make a mockery of his starting GSA so should be in the main body after the first set of averages. Let's just hope that Scotty can at least fill his boots once he drops to reserve on every track against riders like Zischke, Kemp, Etheridge etc.

Unfortunately the 1-6 is true. Forum member has posted a reply from facebook in regards to the BSN PREM Pass and TV rights for the forthcoming season. Safe to say that the BSPL are in a hole that they can't get out of this time.

I don't do facebook so thanks for the info that you've posted. No point in signing up for a PREM pass imo considering it's not a season pass at this moment in time. Assuming the Play-Offs happen on BSN then we'll probably have to pay an extra £30-£40 for the 4 Play-Off Meetings if it's a 5 Team League so may as well hold off for that.

Maybe I am. Would be much easier if the higher ups communicated with the fans but it's too much to ask in their minds. Leaves fans with no choice but to try and work things out for themselves on various topics.

Logic states that if the PREM didn't have a TV deal then extra League Phase Meetings as well as PREM Play-Off Meetings would've been included in the PREM season pass subscription for a higher price much like the CHAMP season pass that's £50 extra.

A season pass is for the season.

Not for BSN. He works for TV whether it was SkySports or TNT Sports. BSN's statment confirming season passes with the same amount of PREM fixtures for this season with No Play-Offs basically confirms a TV deal.

BSN's statement basically confirms a TV deal for British Speedway this year. Are we sure that Nicholls is in the 1-7 now?

Mayfield haven't tried hard enough when it comes to Team Building imo, They could've put out a much better 1-7 than rumoured but the vast majority of the blame lies with Chris Louis for leaving the Club playing catch up.

No but nothing would shock me with the higher ups considering the stuff they come up with tbh.

I dread to think what both Clubs will look like if they're both after the same Riders.

Scrap the Team. Pile up the Top 5 and get a Rider like Mitch McDiarmid in @ No.6. 1. T. Brennan 7.05 2. D. King 6.50 3. R. Lawson 6.81 4. N. Klindt 6.46 5. T. Musielak 6.63 6. M. McDiarmid 3.45 (5.18 divided by 1.5) 7. J. Edwards (RS) = 36.90

I've tried to remain positive this winter but I'm now very concerned to a point where the damage could be irreversable for Mayfield tbh. Fans have hit boiling point before the season has even begun so they simply aren't going to put up with a poorly built 1-7 that gets hammered every week, Fans don't have any patience left and nobody can blame them. I get options are limited but you can still put together a better side than the one that's rumoured which would put up a better fight to nick 3rd Place. You've still got riders like Nicolai Klindt available who can score big points around King's Lynn and Leicester as well as Ipswich. What's the point in having a No.6 on a GSA around the 4.50 mark unless it's a Rider who's going to put in Leon Flint 2025 type scores every week? It goes against everything what a strength in depth side should be. It's not even a side built to win at Home if the No.6 isn't a Rider who'll score a minimum of 8-10 Points consistently around Foxhall. The blame also lies with Chris Louis if the rumoured undercooked 1-7 becomes factual.....No free pass this time.

If Jenkins is the No.6 then this Team gets hammered at Home as well as Away. Going to see a massive drop off in attendances that's for sure especially after this joke of a winter.
