Gemini Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 Good! Let's hope they all pack the Elite League in and just concentrate on the G.P's then we can have a workable league again without all the disruptions. One big Premier League with teams riding against each other once at home and once away. Thank you! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

One big Premier League with teams riding against each other once at home and once away. Thank you! I agree. I don't think it will be that long before it happens either.

I'm sure someone will correct me if I'm wrong -but didn't we try the "one big league" thing a few years back? And it was such a great idea that we stopped doing it very quickly.

Jenn Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 GP Riders are vital to British Speedway There are too many people who love watching the big guns!! plus most people wouldnt pay the standard £16 if they werent getting to see most of the top guys in the world - Most clubs couldnt afford to cut their prices.

Leigh Adams Jason Crump Hans Andersen Andreas Jonsson Scott Nicholls Bjarne Pedersen These are the riders we would lose currently. I would still pay the £15 at Poole if these guys werent in the league. There is also a good chance Scott and Bjarne wont get in next year anyway.

philfromcov Posted September 14, 2008 Report Share Posted September 14, 2008 it shows that you no longer have to ride in britain to be good. the reason why this is because the league is so poor now in terms of quality the best have little to prove. no longer an elite league Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
