waytogo28 Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 No date in the Leicester fixtures about this meeting Unlikely to be required or staged because 2018 seems just about signed, sealed and then due to be delivered. Leicester stay "up" and other "lower" teams join them in whatever the "top" division is called. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beowulf Posted September 19, 2017 Report Share Posted September 19, 2017 Apparently he was smuggled out of the stadium in the back of a car... I read helmets were flying on the track....maybe not then I thought he was smuggled out of Cradley ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

waytogo28 Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 Ipswich and Sheffield? And Glasgow - if geography is not against that possibility. And don't rule out Lakeside yet. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Woz01 Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 We if Monday and Thursday night race night is happening then this won't happen. We might actually see one or two join the premiership. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But it may be only two joining those already there because of set race nights which seem to be a done deal.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SteveLyric2 Posted September 20, 2017 Report Share Posted September 20, 2017 If the promo/rele meetings do happen I hope the respective promotions give themselves a stern talking to!! I can see Damian Bates huddled in a pit corner somewhere mumbling hysterically to himself!! :-) :-) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 I have always been in favour of "STRAiGHT" speedway NO Tac subs No double point rides NO jokers. And for 2018 Teams chose their 7 riders which cannot be changed only through retirement or injury.for the whole season. Could it be done???

No. Well it could be done but "retirement" or "injury" is too easily fiddled - as we know already. There would need to be very strict rules which the promoters will not vote for I suspect. Look at Josh Auty ( no fiddling ) but he retired in frustration and then has a great second half of the season after he comes out of retirement.

TesarRacing Posted September 21, 2017 Report Share Posted September 21, 2017 Personally I think the Premiership PO winners should be promoted to the Polish League then we can see the worlds top riders in a UK team again! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

spanner47 Posted September 25, 2017 Report Share Posted September 25, 2017 Surely they aren't serious about this joke. If we go Monday / Thursday next season in the top division then the chances are that Ipswich and Sheffield might go up, would be pure Speedway gold if Leicester win the play off, but they go down as they want to stay Saturdays and the losers go up. Leicester would have to find guests for King and Newman in the unlikely event that Ipswich beat Sheffield. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TesarRacing Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 You know, I think you might have found a serious flaw in the system!! This must be the only competitive team league in the world that clubs do want to get relegated from!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 (edited) The Monday/Thursday race days must have been agreed upon by all promotions as it involves SGBP and SGBC teams. Maybe it will end as a draw as they both want to come up? 😊 Edited September 26, 2017 by Trees 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CB252 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 Really don't see the point in this happening. It's going to be difficult to put a 2nd tier together as it stands with uncertainty surrounding Workington, Newcastle, Scunthorpe, Peterborough... If Glasgow, Ipswich, Sheffield were to defect to the top flight, the rest might be left with something a little above NL standard as the 2nd tier. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted September 26, 2017 Report Share Posted September 26, 2017 So it's going to be Leicester v Ipswich or Sheffield most likely, both teams have two Leicester riders in their line-ups. Any danger of clarification over who rides for what team? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
