dont the elite league teams look like P.L. teams.. what a huge watered down product it is. any thing over 15 pounds to gain entry is a rip off. hang your head in shame B.S.P.A.

So u wont go every week becausse its watered down, but you would have gone every week if there were no stars but stronger reserves? Do u really think with no gp riders admission would have come down?

[SteveLyric2]

Ljung to Leicester (as someone just posted on the Pirates thread????????????!!!!)

[EnglishRoundabout]

There are only Ward, Woffinden, Iversen,( that are real stars) anyway so that wouldn't of been that much of a loss.My take on it that there should of been a longterm plan, proper research done on what is really needed to steady the ship.But this new rule has been rushed through we still don't no fully how it will work do we.Do you think people will pick and choose meetings because of the admission? i do personally because dress it up as much as you like it is now an inferior product as a whole than it even was last year.

So you don't think M Zagar is a class act?, personally I think having 2 young N.L. British riders at reserve can only benefit British speedways long term plan, after all it done no harm in Poland. Looking at the way teams are panning out for this season I recon we are in for a more evenly matched EL where more than 1 or 2 teams standing any chance of winning it.

Bring it on.

[ukrossifan]

So if attendances are all about the world star riders how come 2 tracks with some of biggest crowds in country have been Dudley in NL and Leicester in PL?

Clearly what has been produced is not a perfect solution. But tbf, the two main things people seemed to want were more meetings and more brits, and this gives both. People seem to acknowledge cost cutting was needed to make things viable, but then gripe about prices not being reduced, ehich would have wiped out any brnrfit of cost cutting.

You say you wouldnt miss tai, wsrd, nki, zagar or bjerre but... who do u really think you will miss out of the riders forced out by tbe changes?

I think they should have also added a ten per cent reduction fot british riders, this would likely have been enough to ensure the likes of auty secured a team berth.

Thinking back to the 80s when the mandstory junior rule came in, the msin impact was fircing down to the nl vetrrans who were now only 3rd hest leaders/second strings ( l collins kennet jessup etc) as well as plenty of decent second strings/reserves ( likes of l carr, courtney and a host of others).

Anyway, this is probably the erong thread gor yhis debate anyway, but in summary I reckon far less people will stay away under this format than if they had ditched the stars.
