That rules out any changes then.It was just a thought. The entertainment factor is diminishing with modern speedway bikes ,but powers at be seem reluctant to address the problem.There again that is just my opinion.

Agree,you don’t see the riders messing the Start Marshall about like they do here ,the match I watched last week he was even straightening them up if he though they were lining up at an angle ,no messing.

Depends if your Promoter is “ one of the boys”,and who you are riding against.

Any idea when tickets will be available forWorld/21 Team final?

What was the crowd level last night, being an off night for the Monarchs?

Think you are right

Excellent post sums up the situation at a number of tracks IMO.Entertainment factor is dropping all the time.

Your right it was just an unlucky coincidence,

The Landlords of the Stadium.

If they drop out the league,they may let us alter the track shape if the drop to senior leagues.

Exactly my point,they haven’t a clue and still expect the fans just to turn up as usual,well it’s not happening

I’m not proposing anything ,try asking your friends that no longer attend and get their opinion.There are plenty 2 pt men out there.Who wants to see guests every week.It only 1/2 a season these days and there are guests everywhere.I for one am totally fed up with the way the sport is going.A lot of Teams are suffering falling attendances.I don’t think things are going to improve.

Just couldn’t make up these rules ,and they wonder where the fans are disappearing too. Mickey Mouse Sport.

Who is the Luke at No6 for Glasgow?

I wonder why family members bother to come on then.

That so many people have a low opinion of him tells me something though.He is his own worst enemy IMO.

Crowds are not living up to expectations according to blog on Website.

It’s the talk of the Bar according to the regulars

Most Clubs have another day they can use if required.We only have half the fixtures these days and we still struggle to complete fixtures(only in speedway)

Don’t think fans would grudge any rider “ good money” but the reality for a lot of clubs is that attendances don’t see to be getting any better,and Birmingham seem to be one of these clubs,so the poster has a point IMO.Speedway riders don’t disclose their earnings( fair enough) so fans can only speculate.

What is the nature of his injury?

In place of whom?

On the Berwick Website that was how it was described.If you type in Berwick v Rye House2012 you can see the article in full.Cook won his 1st race the pulled out the meeting if I remember correctly.
