  1. Has it been posted on here ? I haven’t seen it. As I posted this I realised you don’t know what rumour I’m talking about and I don’t know what rumour you’re talking about 😂
  2. Well as one top rider said they won’t be available come January they will sign up for other leagues
  3. I hear rumours which would make the whole 2 tier system is well and truly doomed, now they are only rumours so I’m not going fuel them until I know it’s true
  4. I think the ideal solution would be to keep the big names, nobody wants to lose them but if it is the only way to go then so be it
  5. I’m back on the 360 podcast tomorrow night with Simon lambert, Stuart Robson and Andrew Bain, I will be giving my pennies worth about what I think about the dire situation we are currently in
  6. I’ve heard from 3 people within the sport now tell me Harry Redknapp was just a publicity stunt nothing more so there goes that dream of a Netflix series coming to save the day
  7. If the bspl get there way, come march we are going to have our equivalent of the Cambridge Oxford boat race, belle vue v Ipswich
  8. Be honest, if you had a couple of million to throw at sponsoring British speedway, with the current state of the sport and knowing all your doing is giving it too the bspl or speedway futures (same people) to jizz up the wall again would you ? I know I wouldn’t not in its current business model
  9. I’ve often wondered how much ford, bates, Louis, Godfrey, morris and the secretary’s wages come too every year ? Got to be honest I would do it for half
  10. They are desperate so wouldn’t put anything past them
  11. Yes if he would ride for rising star money because his performances during his stint in the uk just about warranted them
  12. I wasn’t on this week so not sure but I think it was episode 3 of 3, haven’t had chance to listen yet but we talked about it on our what’s app group in the week
  13. Whoever it is there will have to be a huge carrot dangled infront of them and unless either tv deal or betting deal or sponsor deal on the table that ain’t happening
  14. They do and I don’t blame them, the championship is sustainable but unfortunately the premier league is desperate and either Peterborough or a current Championship team is going to be sacrificed to prop the league numbers up
  15. If we were a sport just starting out, none of these financial issues of the riders would be a thing but because riders have become accustomed to what they earn and have sort of become complacent it’s now a problem when they are faced with being reigned in
  16. I’ve never said I’m right, I know some especially on here are sometimes way off the mark because I MAY know the facts but I don’t need to correct them, it’s a forum, it’s opinions, nobody is right or wrong, promoters are in the main decent folk with the odd exception, I read all posts and look to what people are saying and at the end of the day my opinion is a valuable or useless as yours even without quoting someone to get your point over
  17. No they can’t, public relations is not their strongpoint
  18. Yes I have read it and thankfully there was a handful of promoters, riders and sponsors there who can see the bigger picture and if anything came to any fruition from it at all then it’s a damn sight more than the naysayers who will argue a point to sit a home and do nothing and expect the fruits to just land on their lap, we are where we are because of that mindset
  19. No what you mean is the sport doesn’t exist without the riders you want,There will always be riders, if the sport survives our next great rider might not even be born yet, riders come and go the only constant is the sport
  20. TNT’s biggest problem is he struggles to think outside of foxhall heath
