Little Thumper Posted December 12, 2016 Report Share Posted December 12, 2016 So, tomorrow is the big day - the National Leaguership Promoters' Conflab. Even as we speak, the supremos from the various promotions will be revving up their satnavs and doing their butties ready for the big journey to wherever it is that the Conflab is being held. Just wondering how many chairs will be round the table? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete cc Posted December 13, 2016 Author Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Any news yet? Have they all gone to the pub yet? Is there any white smoke rising? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Little Thumper Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Any news yet? Have they all gone to the pub yet? Is there any white smoke rising? Bad news, I'm afraid. The owners of the conflab venue wouldn't let our National Leaguership chums in...........they hadn't paid the bill from last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Leslie Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Surely this should be the easiest AGM to sort... Plymouth and Lakeside in to replace Coventry and Rye House Set a points limit at about 38. Stay with the no TR rule. Don't mess with anything else. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So Belle Vue Colts will still be there, do you think? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Leslie Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 So Belle Vue Colts will still be there, do you think? Yes. They're at the meeting. As far as I know Plymouth and Lakeside will replace Coventry and Rye House so the number of teams will remain the same, unless there's any other late applications to join.

John Leslie Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 When you say They, who exactly would that be? erm...Belle Vue Colts. (That was who you asked about.....unless it was a trick question and you meant Eastbourne. By the way, if you did mean Eastbourne, they're there too). 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brianbuck Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 I've also had information to the effect that Belle Vue will be in the National League in 2017, and think this is very good news. It seems a pity to me that there is this hard core of posters who can never be anything but negative. The NL promoters will meet today and do their best collectively, to try and ensure that the league is competitive and operates smoothly. They won't solve every problem and doubtless other problems will surface during the racing season - but they'll do their best, knowing full well that whatever changes they make will be criticized by those who just can't wait to have a go at them. I wish them well in their efforts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Heathen1984 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Points limit 39 then? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

By the way, if you did mean Eastbourne, they're there too). I don't think I phrased my question particularly well. I was trying to ascertain who the promoter was who is representing the Colts at this gathering. Thanks Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sings4Speedway Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Points limit 39 then? Its a bit of a cop out? Either go 40 or 38. 39 seems a touch pointless (point-less geddit) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner85 Posted December 13, 2016 Report Share Posted December 13, 2016 Pleased that Belle Vue are in the NL but bemused as to the sharing with Coventry.... I guess they are trying to avoid. 2 meetings in a week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
