  1. Surely the Club should issue a statement though.?
  2. I stand corrected,thanks.Others tracks with crowds under 1000 are not really balancing the books though most are losing money and rely on fans pouring money into the Clubs in recent years.The Championship Clubs would bite you hand of for crowds of 1000+ in most cases.Its certainly not impossible for Clubs to run meetings if they get the go ahead, but will they be meaningful meetings with their own riders giving the situation and viability for some of them who are not in the Country. The credibility of the sport is at stake here ,although Promotions just seem to think the fans will turn out for anything these days. We shall see.!!
  3. Why the “rumour” surely it was not a secret ,there was either going to be a practice Or not.!!!!
  4. Best Wishes to Matej, done a good job for the Bandits in his time at Shielfield.
  5. Of course there has never been pretty awful stuff from Berwick!!!!!! the best track in the world
  6. Even if GB were allowed to resume, unless public were let in it would not be viable for most Clubs.IMO.25%crowd levels wouldn’t sustain most Clubs either.
  7. On Scottish Politics today there was a hint that it could be October before Stadiums re-open to crowds.If that’s the case then there is not much chance for speedway this season IMO.
  8. Don’t waste your breathe regarding introducing something to reduce costs.
  9. It’s very difficult to figure the money the ordinary journey man makes out the sport when one of the top men over the last 15 years Chris Harris constantly says he finds it hard to make a living out of the sport.He just have to assume they they like what they are doing and have decent sponsorships.
  10. Certain tracks I have visited don’t have 2min.Clock and certainly no Radio Link between Start Marshall and Ref.Im a saying it should be made compulsory.
  11. The starting procedure in Poland is streets ahead of UK, think a 2 min clock Should be made compulsory in UK for starters.The riders don’t mess the Start Marshal about in Poland and it all runs fairly smoothly.
  12. Totally agree, but we we will have wait and see, oas there has not be a lot of logic behind a number of there lockdown decisions.IMO
  13. 100%agree,he seems to get his wheels in line even riding a tighter line,great skill.
  14. 100% Agree.he seems to get his wheels in line even riding a tighter line,great skill.
  15. They will have viewing figures ,maybe Speedway is just a filler.Really don’t know the in’s and out’s how these stations gets their revenue from advertising.
  16. Madsen is box office in Poland, there are a few British fans blaming Poland’s success for the decline in GB which is nonsense.Poland know how to promote the sport in their country.The huge Companies that Sponsor prove the point. We get Joe Bloggs from round the corner.!!!
  17. Enjoyed yesterday’s 2 matches probably better than anything I have watched in GB recently.Tracks are well prepared and kept decent during meeting.Madsen have fastest time in meeting in Ht 15 yesterday!
  18. Don’t know the answer to your question, but doubt Premier will have many subscribers for watching speedway given the number of ways you can watch it streaming live nowadays.
  19. 10years ago! He wasn’t the only one in these days with silencers.
  20. Most of the top men are trying to get one over on the opposition without breaking rules( whatever they are in Speedway).I was always suspicious of Hancock ,but Greg is such a nice guy he wouldn’t cheat!!!!
