Looks like you will have to pay admission to find out

Luke Ruddick signed for Berwick last year,don’t know if he is on loan to Edinburgh or they have bought him though.

Rob Godfrey interview in Speedway Star
Fromafar replied to iwright71's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I think the attendances have increased at Glasgow but not to the level the Promotion were the expecting.They certainly have gave it their best shot regarding improving facilities and trying to make it attractive for kids who are the future supporters. -
It’s only in Speedway where your punished for giving your all for your Team all season.It cannot be taken seriously as aProfessional Sport these days,like people say 4 guys 4 laps if your entertained fair enough but we are not attracting many new fans .Will see how this season pans out .#hit or Bust for a few Clubs season IMO.
-
It’s the manipulation that goes on after the season start that bugs me,then from 3/4 way through the seaso riders are starting to prepare for the next season with their average. Richie Worrell being an example,after what I read a few weeks ago.
-
It’s time they done away with averages,and had a broad banded Grading system,at least it would stop all this manipulation that’s going on at times.Rolling averages have helped but even they have their faults.
-
I have no idea what they put in!.Just pointing out that Major Companies don’t seem to want to be involved in our sport nowadays.Edinburgh openly admitted they lose money every year as do most tracks IMO.
-
No disrespect to the Staggs Bar and I am sure their Sponsership is very Welcome,but it does show how much the sport has declined when that is the level of Sponsership nowadays.Not many big Companies investing in the sport,showing the decline in the sport IMO.Again no disrespect just an opinion.t
-
My way or no way from Tai a lot of the time.IMO.He is trying to improve things though.#arting against Thunder IMO.
-
Do you really think there is spare cash floating about at other Clubs in the sport.?
-
Obviously in “the best interest of the sport caveat” as usual depending on the Promotion.
-
Considering the lack of fixtures over the season nowadays it just proves the shambles the sport is in regarding planning also with Monarchs having to go to Scunthorpe in cup 2 nd round as first fixture very poor Imo.
-
Hardly a sniche ,I’m sure the Hotel manager would gave Faceena a “wee call” later.
-
Insure your car then
-
Joe can only look at this as a opportunity missed in his speedway career, a bit silly of him IMO
-
Berwick has 2nd half pits
-
They wouldn’t.
-
Think we all know there is a good number on the same strategy.
-
That is my point,I think there are a few riders “playing the averages game” over the last few seasons.The sport has become a bit of a joke all round in recent season and they wonders how they can’t attract new fans.
-
In the article he stated Edinburgh offered him a contract.
-
obviously not,he has told you the reason he doesn’t want too high an average IMO . quote: Edinburgh would be good financially- riding there and scoring good points every week,but Average -wise,I don’t think I would be very attractive come the end of the year. Does that not tell you something about modern day riders in GB.?
-
Ritchie Worrell.
-
Think Ritchie Worrell says it all in this weeks SS,signed for Edinburgh last year where he loves the track ,not going back though would have been great financially but not average wise as it would be high at the end of the season.Who says riders don’t watch there average. Joke IMO.
-
Aaron Summers is saying he still owed money.
-
At least the “wobblers “seem to be trying for 4 laps which is not the case for the “seasoned” riders at times,better to have a”nice “ average for guesting for some of them at times IMO.
