Panthers89 Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 It's back in Tenerife Ofcourse it is, remember they have 45k extra in the pot this season courtesy of Ged. I'm just surprised that they didn't choose somewhere better. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As far as I'm aware (could be wrong) promoters pay for there own flights 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
INCOGNITO Posted November 2, 2017 Report Share Posted November 2, 2017 Two years ago they held a fans forum in Rugby which wasn't that well attended but at least they were willing to listen to the public and answer questions. They said then it would be done every year but it hasn't and sadly doesn't look like they are going to this year. With the AGM now back in the sunny Tenerife it's obvious that finances are fine and it's a shame it isn't in the Midlands the day after a fans forum as there are many good ideas coming from the terraces via the keyboards and now is the time they really need to listen. The video of Buster saying they are heading in the right direction but it may take a few years is a worrying message as things can be put right straight away which is why they have the AGM to change rules and regulations that need correcting. It needs sorting now and the only good thing about Busters video is that he said they need to look at the sport, not what suits your club. There are only a few tracks that are financially well off and having a top league is only there for these tracks to keep happy. It's no good having the Premiership on one side and the Championship on the other side of the table going off at each other. Act as one group and look at British Speedway for all tracks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted November 4, 2017 Report Share Posted November 4, 2017 No need for it to be in Tenerife. Should be held within a fortnight of the season finishing. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghosty Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 This years AGM must make decisions to give our sport some CREDIBILITY. Bold decisions will have to be made & not meet halfway. Fixed race nights for the Premier league is a must, but this will only work if the Championship don't use those SAME NIGHTs. A fixed pay scale would be good - offer it to all potential riders - those that accept will be the ones you build your teams around with points limit depending on rider commitment. We also need a distinct difference as to the levels of the Premier & Championship - the Championship should only use U.K. based riders. A meaningful fixture list should exist for all tracks, if it's fewer meetings then shorten the season! Good luck AGM please surprise us this year.

"Bold" is an enormous perhaps unrealistic expectation? These are very sensible ideas that should be discussed urgently by the BSPA - but, will they be? Will we see the Agenda, assuming there is one?

False dawn Posted November 6, 2017 Report Share Posted November 6, 2017 Let's hope they don't wake up at the crack of dawn! I think it could be a false dawn. (I've been waiting 15 years to get that one in!) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it will prove to be a false dawn ( yet again ). The only way is down - watch this space 12 months on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gunner85 Posted November 7, 2017 Report Share Posted November 7, 2017 Fixed pay scales are a good idea..... but the promoters will break the rules or fiddle their way round them. Hans Nielsen was supposedly on a fixed pay scale for Coventry.... moneys made up by a fake sponsor if I remember rightly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have heard that every manufacturer of TV remote controls the world over are currently removing all the Green buttons from their handsets and replacing them with Yellow and Black ones...😁 Edited November 7, 2017 by mikebv 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
