And I if hear riders safety one more time🤬firstly racing motorbikes is dangerous, don’t like that fact do something else, 2nd,ok riders let’s talk about lowering the revs by 2000revs on the engines and make them less volatile and ultimately a considerable amount safer to ride ? No I didn’t think so -

I would of raced last night but riders were of a different mindset back in the day and we raced engines that were suited to the conditions not conditions suited to the engines, with that statement can anyone see where the problem is ??? -
The first thing we need to sort out in 2027 is we need to get the fun factor back into British speedway, it is sadly lacking in modern speedway and fans (those left ) feel it

I do believe it, I’ve been there, I have prepped a couple of tracks over the years and have been in enough meetings to know how riders moan, the riders are the first to moan about the tyres not up to the job but you put dirt and water down which would help the tyres and they moan cause the engines which “they” choose don’t like it, this is why the dictatorship that is riders running the sport for the riders needs to stop

I’m sick of dusty tracks, it’s not just Poole it seems to be everywhere in current speedway and ultimately it makes for crap racing, put some god damn water down and if the riders moan tell them to sod off and do something else, it seems no consideration is given to fans getting covered in dust these days, Poole attendance levels are maintained by their winning ethos but for a play off meeting I thought that crowd was poor

He is a top man, had many chats with him back in the day, I just had to concentrate on what he said lol

Greg has only got a mild accent, try having a conversation with the machine examiner at Edinburgh, now that’s a hard guy to understand
-
I find Lee kilby’s banter a bit forced and not very natural but overall I don’t mind him, all of them are ok but I think Greg Blair is the best of them all but anyway it’s all subjective so doesn’t really matter what anyone thinks
-
I like Greg, he is the best presenter on BSN and has the respect of the riders and because he has been there knows the why’s and how’s of how speedway ticks but on Friday night broadcast he announced that was his last BSN meeting this season

It must of been ok because I was quite surprised how many of my customers who don’t follow the sport but know I do mentioned watching it to me -

I know how it works I’ve done it but I always rode in every meeting I was asked even if I was getting less money than my club money because I wanted to race my bike and rode in the hope I would win something which is my point, nobody seems to care about the prestige or the love anymore, it’s all about the money, I don’t blame the BSPL on this one, the sport is practically broke but riders just don’t seem to care
