Is there a club that races on Tuesdays these days?

You need to persuade the Championship promoters that they need to promote weaker teams, they are sitting pretty!

So have they changed their club practices from all the years riders rode 4 leagues?

I've been to plenty of grass track meetings over the years in the UK, could always see the whole track, good Sunday afternoon out.

On the other hand Poland could and should allow self employed riders to do what they want as they did for years successfully instead of restricting their earning potential! Many riders do not even want to race in all leagues so it won't affect many of them anyway! It sounds that things may change next year so we will see.

Tbh with team kevlars it feels a bit like that anyway lol Yes some riders' styles you can pick out but not all, especially away riders!

Yep that's it .....

No cos you can only see part of the race like a road race ......

The system could work well if the Poles would allow it to ......

Riders who want to/are good enough to race in Poland, Sweden, Denmark and GPs only race Mondays and Thursdays in the UK. Doesn't matter about the others really does it......

I thought the track had been watered well but the riders still couldn't get enough drive round the outside, the inside line is too good?

Guessing the guys simply don't want the hassle, the majority just aren't bothered about racing here anyway. Look at all the young aussies going straight to Poland, sad for us but we do need to push our youngsters on somehow. At last have read what Mark Lemon has said in the Star, that the Championship promoters need to embrace the rising star scheme again, to weaken Championship teams so there isn't the need for so much doubling up of riders but the encouragement/improvement of youngsters. He thinks at some point in the very near future that GB will be bereft of riders because we haven't trained them up basically. He thinks all promoters need to look to the future instead of today .....

We do not, we use Mondays and Thursdays! Yes our promoters have tried to accommodate other leagues, GP promoters, stock car promoters, dog racing promoters etc because actually everything can work with a bit of give and take, until Poland pi@@ed on the matches in all ways, looking forward to them getting burnt, may be too late for British Speedway though ....

So the Championship promoters would be happy to promote a league with all NL riders in would they whilst the Premiership have all the best riders prepared to race here? Bloody Championship promoters won't even embrace the Rising Star scheme! Are you coming up with the readies to pay 2/3 riders extra in each team to allow for injuries during the season and for them to train to keep race fit etc?

As expected.......

I didn't watch any GPs last year cos I wouldn't pay the money. This year I'm watching with a couple of m8s but I can take or leave them tbh, rubbish tracks so far! Won't bother with the SEC, what's that all about anyway. The SON will probs watch it to see how our boys do.

Same except I'm not a huge fan of the GPs, like to see our Brits do well .......

That's where the TV company have made a mistake imo. They ought to edit better ....

Why do you have to say anything about their other teams? They can see that speedway is a dangerous sport, you can tell them that there's not enough money in the sport to have squads so when one of your best riders gets injured or whatever one of the options is to get a rider from a different team to guest because without it your team is weakened and you'd definitely lose without them. You can explain that whilst our sport is this poor this is the only option ......

What's the point ..... I have absolutely no connection with Lublin! It's all about passion for my team for starters .....

Why would I want to look at Lublin ...... I really am not the slightest bit interested in any speedway but British Speedway m8.

Well that's great then ..... half an interview!

Has he provided an answer?

When they're racing for your team who cares that they race elsewhere? Not me .... Riders have been racing for numerous teams for years .....

I was hoping they would've got their heads together and made a stand but no ......
