  1. I do agree that our track shape is a burden we have .
  2. Agree Barrett and Dyer would solve reserve problem for next season.Both could improve IMO which is what you need.
  3. You don't seem to grasp that some Promoters are not going to bankrupt the club for the sake of riders demand,There are a lot of clubs in financial difficuties IMO.Machin has promoted long enough now to recognise paying over the odds ,unfortunately there are other Promotions who pay big money and are in difficulty.There will have to be big changes in the winter if all the clubs want to survive IMO.Fisher IMO is very expensive hence lack of offers like i said he is a good rider though
  4. Cheque Book Speedway i'm afraid .Admission back up to £20 if you want him IMO. Good rider though.
  5. Nobody has said they are from what I read,someone just posted article the was in a local paper which said he had an interest.
  6. I would agree,anybody with his back -up Team would struggle given their track record.But he seems happy with them and thats all the counts.
  7. Agree he put a lot of money into it.Seemed too get upset with riders and fans all to easily from what you read.
  8. Think that would be a good move if it came off,a change of ownership could renew a lot of old fans interest IMO.Denham has had his day best let someone else give it a go.
  9. Regarding whether speedway is an expensive sport Ithink you have to factor in the speedway has always been known as a family sport ,which IMO puts different perspective on it.That might be a reason that a lot of fans find it expensive. The Berwick Promotion must take great credit for recognising this fact in their reduced admission prices +u/16 getting in free when accompanied by an Adult.That is a huge reduction to a Family.
  10. Notice thay Eberg is riding in Sweden can he not replace Klaus or is that against the rules?
  11. Over 2 legs Home and Away I think Edinburgh will be the dark horses.with Cook and Tabaka back from injury
  12. This is a hard group to figure out who will win out of the 3. On paper I would say Redcar.Berwick are weak in the 3rd Heat Leader spot IMO and having only one decent reserve does not not help .
  13. He has rode for that many Teams this season they have just have to make something up
  14. What ever way you look at it, you can bet that AJ will be in the GP next season.IMO
  15. I think that tells you something regarding ambition in some riders.Will a win put him in the shop window to some ambitious PL promoters
  16. Sorry to see him go he has been a great ambassador for the sport and should be recognised as one of the speedway greats IMO, I think the injuries or the last couple have taken the edge of him and probably played a big part in his decision.I think he gave a hint in one of his interviews at Vojens that he recognised was not he force he was and his best GP days were behind him.Good luck to him in the rest of his career.
  17. I do believe that missing rider and guests and missing riders for various reasons affect attendances,unfortunatey its just taken for granted as part and parcel of the sport nowadays.There will be a few riders wanting a Champioship medal as have been a guest depending on who wins the league, as a professional sport it just does it no favours attracting new fans for the long term IMO.Radical review or the sport is required.
