Fromafar Posted August 24, 2016 Report Share Posted August 24, 2016 More the the reason to have a north/south split?Better still if the Promoters get together and don't pay out points money they can't afford.Its pretty obvious the sport is in financial difficulties.You only have to look at crowd levels to see why some many clubs are struggling. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

penchev Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 One thing is for sure, if the BSPA don't listen to the fans this time, the sport will be virually extinct! #dodo 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
screm Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 One thing is for sure, if the BSPA don't listen to the fans this time, the sport will be virually extinct! #dodo  earlier in the season the Chairman of the BSPA no less told us the rule book would be ripped up and simplified, and not a moment to soon IMO and its often some of speedways daftest ruling that get in the way of what should be fairly simple sport to govern.

Â Â I was thinking A north and South League, then top few teams battle it out home and away - IE you'd still need to travel but not as far Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent girl Posted August 25, 2016 Report Share Posted August 25, 2016 Fine for us in the north, or in the deep south for travelling - but not for clubs 'in the middle! Â Also (mark my words) the southern clubs would get all the big names..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazc Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Apart from Glasgow It is a refreshing change that riders actually want to ride for Glasgow. Â With the profile off the club being raised and the proffesional manner it is being operated long may it continue. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think you will find it's more to do with the money on offer, speedway riders are a mercenary bunch. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To The Point Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Think you will find its not more a case off getting paid when they are supposed to. That's simply what happens when you are not running on a shoestring, and Glasgow can be very thankful that is no longer the case up there. The fact remains what is being paid at Glasgow is what attracts the rider, I do wonder what riders like Berge and Grajconek have to say about Glasgow though.

TheScotsman Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Grajconek ?? Â More gossip/scandal??? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazc Posted August 26, 2016 Report Share Posted August 26, 2016 Why would Josh have anything to say left with our blessing and always has been well recieved when he is up please explain. Â Berge well that is a different matter. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still awaiting why you mentioned Josh as an example when he clearly didn't leave Glasgow under any cloud as you insinuate . Whilst i appreciate what you say about Berge is correct his tantrums at Glasgow were what you would expect from an 8 year old at times but it could & should have been dealt with better . 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did not mention anything about leaving under a cloud, Used them as an example of riders who have left a team, and would be allowed an opinion away from the team, that they would not be denied while in the team. Â I have enough problem with some of the Berwick Mafia reading into something, that was never said but was in their suspicious mind. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah ok but when you mention Berge in the same sentence as Josh it is an easy mistake to make. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
