Anybody would think it’s Poole’s fault that the away Teams can’t gate.Most opposition riders have rode at Poole for years.Obviously they haven’t learned much.

Agree.Let the riders who can’t make the sport pay in Uk earn their fortune elsewhere.

He has ridden for them.!

Lambert £100 more.

Totally agree with ‘journeymen’earnings’ it can’t be sustainable.Interestingly in the Harry Oxley obituary in SS last week Penhall said Harry guaranteed the riders 35% of the gate receipts . Thats a business man and Promoter.Knew how too run his sport.

Club Speedway is not dead,it just needs to get back to being “Club Speedway” not every rider riding for any Club during season.Fans want to see “their” riders every week.Take a leaf out of Polands book no guests they promote juniors.At least the fans are seeing their riders .Dont think it spoils the entertainment and produces new talent. NDL riders deserve a chance. IMO

Make the sport more credible would be a good start.Anyone who thinks it is is deluded.IMO.

Lambert certainly doesn’t do much passing against decent opposition. -

At least it’s their own juniors no guests,fans watching their rider who will only improve. -

Kvetch seems to be improving as a rider as the season goes on.IMO.Lambert isn’t. -
Depends on wages bill though.

Speedway is just circus now in UK with the same riders putting on a show at different venues and different Clubs during the week.Half of them don’t know who is their Teammate is on the night at any given meeting.
-
Definitely think a Saturday Afternoon is not good day to run a meeting.But don’t know the main decision for this .Know the don’t have floodlights. accommodating rider demands is killing the sport fixtures are too sporadic.Fans could probably accept once a Fortnight better.

Agree,need to call their bluff.Sport might have to drop a grade but the entertainment value won’t. Like you have said the speed will not drop significantly.
