  1. There isn’t one but some parents and their siblings seem to feel they are being put out of a team spot because of a foreign rider
  2. Or running off into the sunset after realising you can’t change the status quo as many an out the box thinking people have done in the past
  3. Unless they have changed the rules a current or previous promoter has to shadow the new promotion for a season, maybe Louis is doing it ? Anyway crack out the fixtures now and plod on with the season
  4. As I said it’s don’t have a problem with him riding, I was just asking what fans thought
  5. If Ipswich is a cert then there is no reason a fixture list can’t be put out with TBA for potential Northampton meetings, if then Northampton doesn’t happen supporters will understand, for season tickets just add a play off or some other meeting or 2 into the season somewhere
  6. I said this on the speedway 360 podcast back in December, if we were a mainstream sport we be crucified in the media over this, luckily we are not so nobody is seeing it in all it’s catastrophic glory
  7. You do have to wonder what the hell is going on, the silence is worrying, have both deals fell through and they don’t have a league ? Mayfield for me are doing themselves no favours if they are taking over Ipswich and in the GPs and the silence from the bspl is staggering,this can’t drag on any longer it needs sorting now, despite all the issues involved in getting it to work they should of gone one big league this year
  8. That’s my point really, it’s not so much the price, it’s what am I getting for that price ? Cardiff was a great day out as you say and imo should of moved to a new venue a few years before its demise, the GP for me should be something different, an experience, I’ve booked Poland again this year and if I’m honest I get more of a buzz from the experience of the league matches before and after the GP but even on GP day the towns are buzzing, belle vue is literally just a meeting and that’s it and as much as the racing is great I can get that experience on a league match there for a third of the price, I hope it’s a success again and hopefully a sell out but it’s just not for me I want something different
  9. I think it’s bad enough for charging a child full price in the seats but they would argue it’s still a seat but charging a child full price to stand up is quite frankly just ludicrous and not the way to encourage anyone with a child to take them and probably putting off the adult too
  10. As we sit here twiddling our thumbs I was just reading a pole of the most boring sports in peoples opinion and of 1000 replies nobody said Speedway,now that can be took two ways either nobody finds Speedway boring or nobody finds who voted has heard of it,just for the record, curling and cricket were the most nominated
  11. Remember when that one guy came into your work telling you about a new pyramid scheme and we all put money in and it in reality turned out to be a scam, this speedway futures Ltd is giving off the same vibes at the moment
  12. So with no winter income the 4/5/6 premiership are stumping up the £??,??? wages ? But listening to rob Godfrey he seemed to give the impression Phil was working for speedway futures Ltd ? Who unless have sponsors stumping up the cash also have no income
  13. Who is actually paying Phil morris ? He isn’t on the bspl board as he not a promoter and he not listed as a director on speedway futures Ltd, so who exactly is he working for ?
  14. We drove to the German GP too and it was a good experience except for no car parking at the stadium meaning we had to get trains and buses
  15. We went in the car, drive out Thursday night, stayed in ZG Friday, stayed in Wrocław Saturday and drove straight back to ferry after gorzow meeting, back in England Monday night, when 1 drives the other sleeps so we get plenty of sleep between us
  16. Possibly but I go to the GPs for the experience not necessarily the racing, got tickets for Wrocław GP because the experience is amazing
  17. Well it been another couple of weeks, beginning to think all is not well in negotiations, how much longer? It past ridiculous at the end of January
  18. Me too, it just doesn’t grab me as a GP venue, it literally is just a meeting and I want more for my GP experience and imo is way too expensive for what it is
  19. Unfortunately I’m not available to be his replacement at this moment, I’ve got too much on
  20. Well there are a few thousand just arrived on dinghy's looking for work doctors, engineers all sorts,surely Mohamed is your man ?
  21. Perhaps we have got this all wrong? To find out what made speedway so great back in the day the bspl and speedway futures have been watching old episodes of world of sport with Dickie Davies and they have put their collective heads together and decided that Kendo Nagasaki is the marketing idea to follow, Northampton will not be revealed to the public until a few years time and compete all their matches as a complete mystery to the public, see there is us lot slagging them off when really a genius idea was being implemented all along
  22. personally I don’t have a problem with it, we have a rider shortage crisis right across the board and the more riders that want to ride the better, the litmus test for me is if the people who pay to watch it want it then it’s ok
