Plus KL are charging £20 to attend in the top league, would people want to pay £3 extra to watch a few different names if Poole had to charge the same if moved up..? Especially on a race night Poole fans don't like unless it's the playoff final 2nd leg! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Poole are the obvious choice from the Championship. They have the rider assets and the support. Is that why you call yourself 'spin' king?

If this is true its a pathetic decision Maybe the BSPA are paying more attention to due diligence and want to see Oxford build up a solid foundation and reputation with the new management/promotion before allowing them into the Premiership. It's all to easy to allow 'someone' in to save a club, a league etc without a view to a long term existence which the BSPA, imo, have done so many times in the past only for it all to go poop. Ian Jordan & BMR are just 2 examples of many before. Jason Doyle, great to hear that he's coming back to race in the UK and it would be great to see many more of his ilk come back to ride here especially given the financial problems that Swedish speedway is facing with very low crowds as reported in the speedway star a couple of weeks ago. Shocking to see the attendance figures in Sweden & the league structure struggling, I hope things can pick back up over there because in Rickardsson's day it was thriving.

Wasn't Covid restrictions heavily part of the subsequent crowd levels? They seem to still be signing up some of the very best talent considering they are 'struggling', so I presume they feel all should be well again next season?

Crazy robin Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 A real kick in the nuts of reality for me & fellow Robins fans with Doyley & Tobi signed up for the UK in 2022:-( Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technik Posted November 9, 2021 Report Share Posted November 9, 2021 If I am understanding correctly Jason Doyle will race in Britain in 2022 as well as Sweden & still be in the Polish league. will this make him the first rider to put two fingers up to the restrictive Polish contract restrictions? If it is well done Jason Doyle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Would've taken Zmarzlik, Woffy, Doyle, Dudek, Pedersen, Madsen, Sayfutdinov etc to stand together to stop it happening!

Jason would be the first choice, He has already said he prefers to race than practice so more league racing would suit him. Or Nicki Pedersen who is in the twilight of his career would he go to race in Poland Sweden Denmark & UK as a final swansong, maybe Chris Holder who is not at his World Champion form but still a top star in league racing. I can't see the Polish nationals jumping ship as they have to much at stake with selection for SGP SoN & SEC events in the hands of their version of the BSPA.
