time for all the foreigners to quit the uk and give the british lads a chance. think this will be changed for 2014 season,

There aren't nearly enough British riders of equivalent standard to cover for them.

theres some serious financial trouble out there

 

they wont all be gone obviously but there'll be quite a few less

just been on about it tonight, be one league shortly and the premier league will be shafted IMO.... Makes you wonder why Poole are signing up some of the better riders in the prem... Fat maud ain't daft.:)

I bet its not.

thats not what mr pearson and co are saying. there will be less non-british riders in the pl next season..we need to improve our talent and bring on more riders through the ranks of the pl/nl system. otherwise we aint gonna win any thing at speedway or footie.

If the new point limit for 2014 is true, P.L will have difficulty fitting in a No1 or any assessed riders. Top rider will be no more than an eight pointer, and no club will risk an assessed seven rider or even a five pointer. Seems like a short sighted decision by promoters to lowe the costs, rather than trying to increase the crowds.

What is this new points limit then if you don't mind me asking? Cant understand the logic of offering watered down product to save money, if your dwindling bunch of supporters don't like what they see now they wont turn up to watch, which is what many are doing, how would three top men and four, "technically" reserves entice anyone back? :blink:

In response to the original post are there enough British riders to equally replace riders like Alden, Ostergaard, Wolbert etc? No is the overwhelming answer, of the three riders you mention, two are PL reserves, one of which is struggling big time. Perhaps Kelloggs could have a better go at growing British riders than the BSPA.
