Stadium owners holding on until speedway goes ** up in this country or there is no one to take on Swindon when TR steps down. I really don't think we will be watching speedway in Swindon in 5 years time. Russell stated he wanted to hand over a 'financially stable' club to Rosco and Lee Kilby!

Is any speedway club financially stable? Sounds like the awful crowds mid season have cost us this year. The first few and last few meetings have been very well attended but the ones in between been bad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 Best wishes to Terry Russell for a successful and speedy recovery following his surgery. He wants to keep JD in the Robins team for next year as he is 'box-office' (quite right too!)and hopes the AGM doesn't diminish the standard yet again as its not necessary. He's also hopeful of an 8-team Premiership in 2020. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted September 25, 2019 Report Share Posted September 25, 2019 Agree with JD staying but is there still a rule about Only one rider with average over 8 in the team ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

robins les Posted September 26, 2019 Report Share Posted September 26, 2019 We will probably have to lose riders as our current team total is 45.26 & can not change now, as playoff scores do not count towards points averages. Logically, the team averages will not rise above 42.5, as this is the maximum number of points available based on 4 rides. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never liked that rule - if a team wants to build top heavy as opposed to strength in depth then that’s surely up to them. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
