Birmingham v Poole Championship. 19/7/23
mikebv replied to Steve Shovlar's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I went to a Poole v Swindon match whilst on holiday down there about 12 or so years ago It was a top of the table match and over 5,000 were there that night... Amazing how much the crowd levels have reduced in Speedway over the last decade or so.. Without too much being learned as to why it would appear... The Fords made the right decision when they realised the glidepath of travel became downwards not upwards.. -
You have seen the plan then? Rinse and Repeat... Kerching.....

The Poole fans measure all the other clubs crowds against their 5,000 they get each week.... -

I don't think anyone would get upset riding against Tom.. Which probably isn't a good thing if he wants to reach GP level.. -
King's Lynn v Leicester 20/07/23

A two hour advert for your business, and your plan is to make it look to any potential customers out there that you have hardly anyone interested in buying what you sell... An amazing idea... Get it on Dragon's Den or give Lord Sugar a bell... They could tell his Lordship where he has been going wrong all these years... -
Could this be the first meeting ever in the history of the sport where both teams lose?

To be fair to the ref, it did look like contact.. So you can see how he decided Doyle was at fault.. An ex rider in the box probably wouldn't have and instead excluded Bewley... Block passes like this in Poland are ten a penny and, over there, Dan would likely have gone... Niot a glaring mistake by the ref by any means, but personally I would say he was wrong..

It just shows what a knifedge the sport in the UK is on.. Sponsors have become for many a sizeable chunk of the "cake", rather than the cherry on top of the icing on it... A true real supporter of the sport for many years, so you have to send best wishes to him and to Wolves..

World Cup - Wroclaw July 2023

Wright must have said that he didnt want to do it... ? Given the shape of the track, and his commitment, tenacity and hard riding style, surely he would have been a shoe in to take position four?
