  1. Hasn't the defrosting of Russell's Swindon licence elapsed and anybody is free to run Swindon now?
  2. Plymouth... on a Saturday night? 🤔
  3. Please, just answer my question, instead of a passive aggressive response
  4. Does "moving it on" include shutting it down? It's not just a business it's a community facility. If he just walks away surely he's done his money and will effectively have nothing to sell.
  5. It's remarkably similar to the Studley Grange stunt they're attempting
  6. The obvious answer would be some kind of selection draft for different level riders... won't happen though and that's why there'll be no 6th team
  7. I wonder when the deadline is for the 4th, 5th and maybe 6th, 7th, 8th etc. clubs to be confirmed as starters or non-starters in the PL, because the CL are still happily announcing rider signings left, right and centre while not 1 PL club has yet announced a single signing despite knowing the points limit. If they're still hoping to lure some unsuspecting club into the PL under the illusion that these riders aren't already lined up and ready to announce they'll be in for a long wait.
  8. What would a "gambling deal" consist of though? There's no wide spread media exposure, that we know of, and there's only 14 venues for the sport and a many of them are in population back waters. It makes no commercial sense, in the current Speedway climate, that I can see, for a major betting company to be involved.
  9. Now it's confirmed we're in the failed PL, just waiting for the announcement of Nick Morris & Drew Kemp to put the rotten cherries on the icing of a horse rubbish cake 🎂
  10. Makes me laugh when Robbo is on, great rider but... whenever he's asked anything about a meeting or a rider, he's never seen it or them 😂 Love it when Crabby is on, no nonsense as a rider and manager, no nonsense as a pundit
  11. Brum, Oxford and Lynn didn't have a no 1, bottom 3 teams by a long way
  12. ... or just stay in his Polish hotel room and watch it on BSN Sorry, couldn't resist, you set em up and I'll knock em in 😁
  13. It is when you could be sat on a Saudi bench earning £700k a week 😂
  14. In name only, which is why I can't get my head around your [the sport needs the PL] argument. Even if it was one big (and 14 is not that big) league you can call it what you want " the top best ever league in the country ever league... ever"... it's still the top league
  15. Or a virtual team, matches to be played on the Speedway Challenge app and streamed live PPV on a Saturday night 😂
  16. He does tend to use 10 words where 1 will do 😂 If you don't like that you'll hate the Talk Speedway podcast, that can often go on for around 2 hours as one of the presenters takes so long to ask a question!
  17. Max - Edinburgh Brady - Holsted, Somerset Dan - Edinburgh Jaimon - Leszno Tom - Eastbourne Belle Vue - Poachers
  18. Looks a good side... at home anyway 😉
  19. ... and lower league players of many other sports also do
  20. I'd say Sheffield are far from obvious as things currently stand. Bear in mind these are the people that were asking Peterborough to compete in the PL without a track!
  21. So we now have a "Far from ideal league" and a Championship League. Sounds like of there's no buyers for Ippo and Sheffield BSPL are going to run them as back stop "owners" maybe?
