Lord Skid Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 No different to the Football premier League, can you imagine no foreign players, what a state it would be in. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fromafar Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 13. Trouble is they would be filled with NL, MDL & NJL riders at the bottom end. A lot of them would benefit and perhaps some of them would turn into decent riders,one thing for sure they would be there each week.It is the way forward for British Speedway.No different to the Football premier League, can you imagine no foreign players, what a state it would be in.We have the Elite league for the top Foriegners Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YAMYAMBANDIT Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 (edited) 13. Trouble is they would be filled with NL, MDL & NJL riders at the bottom end. it would probably have to include all the speedway pensioners, get Rob Grant snr back on a speedway bike. That would certainly improve the entertainment, at the same time show Pederson how it's done properly. But he wouldn't be up against him, as he aint a Brtit.

Fromafar Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Quite a few of the 'top foriegners' (current GP) don't even ride in the EL.Exactly because we won't pay them enough and the ones that are here are bankrupting the smaller El Clubs.the early days of NL in the 70's produce talent and meetings were of good standard which what we need to get back too IMO.Fans are not supporting their TEAM nowadays just 7 riders who turn up for the meeting.Think it is easy to give speedway a miss nowadays for a lot of fans. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

proud panther Posted July 1, 2014 Report Share Posted July 1, 2014 Peterborough will be ok, because Rick & Julie still own it. Wouldn't be so confident if they ever walked away completely. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shale Searcher Posted July 4, 2014 Report Share Posted July 4, 2014 but what about Mark Lemon ???,,, surely this stuff is'nt all his fault,,, :-( It's not the riders fault, he wants to ride and earn money, it's the promoters choice....... Stick with an inexperienced young, British lad, or a poor Polish rider, easy.... Get rid of the Brit Kid, keep the Pole, and bring in an old Aussie... Don't worry about the future of British Speedway..... That's what the Elite League is for......! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
