In fairness I make you right that they deserve a place. However unless the world changes and travel restrictions are still in place can't see it happening as they will cite lack of riders to go round . Could work if the product was weakened so more upcoming youth were given a go and national league was changed to a proper development league as was its intention. wait with baited breath for the I'm not paying to watch wobblers brigade comment. But unless something drastic happens can't see the powers that be allowing another club in to the league. Hope I'm wrong 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Wednesday is and always has been the preferred and regular meeting day for Poole and one of the key reasons why Pirates will be in Championship as they lost money and crowds running on Thursdays. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Poland is going to dictate where Riders who are not Poles can and can't ride (e.g pick one other League only), shouldn't the Swedes and UK dictate that the only day they will protect is Tuesdays and basically open up PL to 6 days a week. Stuff the Poles. That could strengthen the PL immediately as some of the bigger CL Clubs might consider running PL on their preferred race nights. Poole / Leicester / Glasgow the most likely beneficiaries maybe? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also lets not forget Denmark on Wednesdays and Fridays. Edited November 12, 2020 by Skidder1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lewy Posted November 14, 2020 Report Share Posted November 14, 2020 Is the general consensus that plymouth should be denied the chance to join the championship if so what justification would you offer for that,seems crazy to say that there is not enough riders,which would mean we have to many teams! Surely we want more teams not tracks closing? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely we want more teams not tracks closing? no i think they should be allowed however there is a lack of riders if supporters want the same level of rider that are already competing. if they weaken the product slightly and allow good standard NL riders in more than enough to go round. personally think they should stop doubling up or down for any rider over say 23 and no doubling up for any non british passport holder . hopefully that would give more team places and stop young british riders drifting away from the sport as there are the lack of oppertunities 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
