I wonder if the percentage of pillocks in the country overall is the same percentage as on the forum, or do you think speedway attracts a higher ratio?

That clears that up then.

Barn not free range then?

Doesn't always happen as we know, but all referees should be strong enough to move the meeting along at a sensible pace, do think the CL matches should run smoother with less re runs etc with the level being a bit higher (hopefully anyway). Len certainly stoked the fire, but Connor Dugard was certainly not averse to throwing fuel on it, especially for a 'new' team manager. Those years in the NL at the higher level at that time were pretty exciting though one way or another, curfew shenanigans or not.

If you're married seems like the wife doesn't make the top 2, and maybe not on the podium with Crump and Plymouth after this year then??!!

I imagine come May/June, if he wants it Richard Lawson will have a choice of teams in the Premiership, the on going European covid situation will cause havoc, and that's disregarding any injuries ( obviously hope there's none of those).

Good points and I'm in the same fortunate position, but if Mum Dad and 2 Kids could go for say £25, that may bring more in, and hopefully some newbies, or am I hoping for something that has passed into history and its only us 'older' fans who would go at either price?

I think championship crowds will be really good, but think NL crowds will be pretty low even bank holiday ones, hope I'm wrong, want all clubs to at least break even.

Costs very little to plan like Eastbourne have and can adjust it pretty quickly, waiting for confirmation the season will start will lead to the usual last minute panic and bad organisation of most of the promotions if and when it does.

To me it's simple mathematics and he's gambling on numbers. If he thinks it'll be say 200 die hard fans at £15 or 300 at £10 it's the same income. But to me I can't see those figures working as people will save their money for the championship meetings ie only £3 more to see Nichols etc. £10, especially with big concessions for children must bring in a higher proportion of the usual fans, plus a few extras may give it a go due to a relatively inexpensive evening out.

Who's been pointing a little Dick?

Don't think you're being negative, it always seems to be the norm at Kent with high prices. Would think it guarantees a virtually non existent crowd for NL meetings.

No

I think you're right, be best to run it at BV this year.

I think you're going to see in the next few seasons if it will be the case, and unfortunately I think you'll be right, potentially good riders won't give it a go.I can't see the continuation of the conveyor belt we've started over the last 5 years with the lads who are making it to the premiership and championship , Kemp, Brennan, Palin plus about 20 others on the way to that point and instead of trying to bring more youngsters in will have the opposite effect unless they've substantial backing.

Thats a bit unfair on Scott at least, he looks fit and lean for a guy of his age.

So basically finished for stand alone clubs, goodbye Mildenhall as well in 2022.

You haven't lived

You'd hope other teams would have a look and follow suit. With everything in life the worst thing is the unknown, at least for the early part of the season coming to Eastie as you say everyone knows exactly what's what and hopefully everyone will follow the arrangements.

Why would you not watch it or at least some of it for £3/£4 ? A pint or 15 more heats of speedway with no extra travel costs???

Have a look on Easties web site, the all ticket booking for the first 2 meetings lays out exactly what they're doing as regards getting in and out, facemasks etc. So well laid out as what's involved would hope other clubs would follow suit in being so precise.

Is TRick making a comeback then? Otherwise think you're living on past glories, and not the real world in the championship.

Yes, suppose you're right, would also have Shackleton turning in his grave.

South Georgia sounds good to me.

You could tag that quote to the lot of them really!
