NickH114 Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 Could be a major blow to the Panthers with the news that Tungate has signed for a Danish club, with him already signed for a Polish and Swedish club this would rule him out of Panthers plans unless changes are made to where riders can ride.

scoobydoo Posted November 23, 2020 Report Share Posted November 23, 2020 If theres to be any speedway in the UK in 2021 its looking more likely to be run with one league only due to the lack of riders available to make up the teams. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But, ironically, don't you need more riders to fill all the teams in one league as opposed to riders doubling up in two? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're right unfortunately, only way it would work would be with less teams than the premiership and championship combined, obviously hope not, but the pandemic could facilitate one league if some don't reopen next season.

You are right that we would need more riders for one league.Maybe they could promote some from the National League(youngsters) to double up into the one league.They would get more rides and a bit of experience against riders that should be better than them at this stage in their careers.

One league with less teams and possibly a North / South split league to reduce travel , semi finals and then a Grand final , teams would have to run with a lower team limit and perhaps reserves would need be two youngsters , Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn't want to ride last year & had to have his arm bent. Even if rules allowed I wouldn't expect top see him in the team next year anyway. Would be happy to see BWD slot back in with or without a reduced points limit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

National League riders would have to be brought in and lesser known available Europeans would have to be sought. Another issue would be by restricting riders to be only allowed to have one source of income which could result in some not being willing to ride for less money. Even so I would like to see just the one league with perhaps more competitions being brought back to allow riders to replace some of their reduced earnings. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bring in Sayfudinov or Grigory Laguta. I think both of the above would suit the Showground track. Are you on drugs 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigcatdiary Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 Latest news on ET website is No Iversen or Tungate for Panthers in 2021 and each Premiership & Championship team will include one rider from a pool of youngsters introduced to each team presumably at no 7.

Panthers99 Posted January 21, 2021 Report Share Posted January 21, 2021 Ellis 6.49, Scott 5.50, Hans 5.79, Bellego 5.80, Harris 6.30, BWD 5.47 = 35.35. Not sure on availability for Hans or Bellego, I think it will be a case of wait and see on all fronts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
