  1. For me the solution begins with riders and them accepting where we are , good luck to anybody who tries to get them accept change
  2. genuine question as I don't remember , did zielona gora get points deducted when dudek got caught ?
  3. Yes , one of the very few positives left in British speedway at the moment
  4. So what is he doing now ? Does he attend speedway these days ?
  5. I was talking to one of my customers this morning and he is a life long fan, he was saying that he had only been to one meeting this year saying how easy it was to get out of the habit of going, he said there is no loyalty anymore with teams ,when I asked about doubling up , he said it's nonsense and it should only be for young Brits as it was intended , I've been asking various ex riders and fans about doubling up and it's hard to find anybody in favour of it , I think the 26% who voted to keep it were all riders
  6. because I'm sure I read somewhere they had overall say on any British league speedway being shown , remember the thing about people filming and showing meetings on phones , it was around that time ,I think that's why they not shown before
  7. Has gospeed relaxed their grip on British speedway ? Championship meetings are appearing on YouTube
  8. My step son went to university graduated the lot then got a job at JCB doing something completely different. Only university you need is the university of life
  9. but they are trying to promote a false product and the fans are not buying it , nobody said it was easy and it does take time but get the basics right first
  10. it will never be perfect no sport is but we are trying to sell a team sport while ignoring the basics of team sport, sorry to keep banging on about Poland but for all their issues and they have a few they sell a team sport to the fans and the fans back it in big numbers , there is no crossover until it comes to the national team , until this is addressed here we will never recover domestic speedway no matter what else we do , we all remember going away to support our team at a dump of a track and the racing was crap and we lost but it didn't matter cause it was our team with our riders and we had a blast , that's what we need to get back otherwise team speedway is pointless , on the point of having a go at promoting , what has happened to anyone who has come in with great vision and tried to change the sport ?
  11. i wanted gorzow to go through simply because it's a better race track than Wroclaw but should be good final anyway
  12. even when you watch sky it is nothing compared to NSport , they are on it with every camera , every moment , every sound it really makes you feel part of it , sky and even more BT just makes you feel like they are filming a sports event , I'm not having a go at either sky or BT I'm greatfull they show speedway but I just feel like even on limited budgets they could get a better feel of the live event, watching gorzow v Wroclaw tonight the studio is in the pits and the noise from the bikes behind really makes it live , it gives a real buzz , you don't have to interview someone to know how they feel , the face of the gorzow team manager at the end spoke a million words and woofy's reaction at the end gave you that sense of wow , for me neither Sky or BT capture that but I do understand there is a world of difference between polish and British speedway at the moment
  13. What happend to him after speedway ? Does he still attend ? Is he still alive ? ,I saw a comment on twitter about him last night and wondered ?
  14. Turn up the noise of the bikes , get some tips off polish nsport , they really capture the sport like your really there , when they are doing interviews the bikes are revving away behind them , it really gives that live feel , I watched wolves v swindon the other night it was like watching it on an iPhone with no feel of it being live
  15. Both semi finals today of the polish extraleague were fantastic adverts for the sport played out in front of huge crowds , it proves speedway can be great if you get the basic product right which Poland do , they excel at the team aspect
  16. Kasprazak riding like the world class rider we know he can be but doesn't always turn up
