Hawk127 Posted September 26, 2022 Report Share Posted September 26, 2022 Those in charge really ought to think before playing about with fixtures and various tournaments and scheduling a list of meetings. League meetings should take priority and the league positions decided by the end of August with play offs and final in first two weeks in September. Cup and pairs take place in September and October so that clubs who did not make the play offs still have something to race for and retain fans interest. Too much to ask that those in charge have a brain between them and act in the best interest of the fans and the sport. Farcical situation that the top tier finds itself in towards the end of September in a seven month season with a league of just six teams. Yes British speedway is a shambles and we can all guess who is to blame. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interestingly of course, Poland just have one home/away league meeting between clubs, so although they've got 8 teams in the Ekstraliga, they only have to squeeze in 56 matches, as opposed to the Premiership's 60 ... ahh ... blimey, if only the Premiership had two fixed race nights per week and more than 20 weeks to stage the matches ...

Run the National Championships/League Rider Championships in October... Best weather, school hols, no domestic football to compete with.. Who knows... Winning a league title may even get some publicity.. And sort the guest nonsense out and it might even get a sponsor.....
