  1. They're not running events throughout the year at one venue like a speedway promoter Don't disagree with that except . . . . riders' costs HAVE to be reduced, in order to reduce promoters' costs, and ultimately reduce, or at least stabilise over a period, admission prices
  2. Shoveller dangles his rod with some bait on it - yes, sometimes it reads as humour, sadly some take him seriously, when all he's doing is shovelling
  3. Let them go, so we have a British League with riders committed 100% to riding here - like Josh Auty, etc A team to identify with, week in week out, and into the succeeding seasons Like in t' good old days
  4. There's a fishing club down south run by a Mr Shoveller - I'm sure he'd welcome you as a fully-qualified member
  5. My ex-mother in law gave me her autograph book many years ago as it contained some autographs she'd obtained at Brandon when she used to go as a youngster They turned out to be from 1930, and include Jack Parker, Squib Burton and . . . Tom Farndon! Needless to say, it's a treasured possession - I wonder if it has any monetary value?
  6. Two things Sir Shoutalot gets excited about: We're entering tactical country We're on for a last heat decider Quite agree about the second one, but not the first - double points should be done away with, a return to the old tac sub rule and choice of gates
  7. I "liked" this post apart from the description of Messrs Bukkhave and Garcia, which is deplorable - the sentiment of the remainder of the post is fine
  8. It's to pay for the fireworks, and the hot showers for visiting riders see Poole v Coventry!!!!
  9. OK Sidney! I've never known anyone collecting duplicate autographs, but I'll concede to you if folk do Re Ole Olsen, I don't think I ever mentioned "team riding", other than to answer you by saying I have seen him team ride I stand by my opinion that he was not a team player in the mould of Boocock or Harris As for Gary Newbon - don't get me started!
  10. I take this supports my opinion about televising league matches keeping paying spectators away from attending?
  11. In case you missed it - it was live on tv!No need to fund the promotion by attending at the track
  12. Already discussed here http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=84834
  13. How many due to doubling up/down, how many to foreign clashes?
  14. So, what you're saying, Poole fans chose the tv rather than pay to attend Strength to my opinion!
