dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 That was the plan anyway - few details of exactly how it will work as yet I would expect a big launch soon if it is still going to happen Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 Its for one nominated heat - as the BSPA post-AGM statement said!! More detail to follow.....! Maybe its the new app that Poole's new co-promoters are working on?! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whats to stop the opposition supporters voting for riders who are not going well on the night to ride in the last heat to make it easier for a team to win if its a tight match with a last heat decider. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing at all - infact not just opposition fans. The little detail I have heard means ALL fans can vote for ANY meeting so 'neutrals' could decide the fate 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If its as someone said you can only choose the top scorers the time between the last two races could be along time whilst you get your votes in.

Aces51 Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 It's going to be interesting to see how it works. If fans from anywhere can vote for any rider to be included I can see one team in particular ending up with their worst two riders in the nominated heat in all of their cup meetings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted January 26, 2019 Report Share Posted January 26, 2019 As ever the devil is in the detail - an area where speedway regulations to date have not excelled 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bavarian Posted January 27, 2019 Report Share Posted January 27, 2019 (edited) Total rubbish this. The team manager alone should decide. Imagine this in any other sport, supporters voting for player's substitutions in Football. Come on, man!!! This is another unneeded gimmick. The BSPA is making a mockery of this once great sport of speedway racing. Just as bad as the Golden Joker for double points. I for one can't take this Supporters Cup serious. Too bad the traditional Knock-Out Cup has been sacrificed for that. Edited January 27, 2019 by Bavarian 8 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
