  1. Home every fortnight, would mean all know when the meetings take place.... And, given the costs involved, may mean its affordable?...
  2. Is Kvech averaging more in the GP's than in the Premiership,??
  3. Did Kelvin ever ride a Speedway bike,?... I do remember him rubbishting himself at Bradford when Hans Nielsen took his left leg away at Bradford in the World Final....
  4. Box Office.... Regardless of result.. Let's hope he comes over to the UK (again)..
  5. I had that rare privilege to watch Eric Cantona do his stuff week in, week out... A proper maverick.... My non United mates hated the club, but couldn't hate him due to his talent .. UK Speedway needs "mavericks"...
  6. The same riders turning up, every three or four weeks.. That is what we want,!!! Even sooner, if they guest!!!!!
  7. Someone who never gave Zmarzlik any respect, going back a fair few years.. Woryna rarely got burned going into bend three..
  8. Like a cycle Speedway "nudge"... Those moaning never obviously watched Alan Wilkinson and Chris Pusey... Edit (When UK Speedway actually meant something)..
  9. Great to watch.. Ten years, at least, and never been any different.. Box Office..
  10. Third prize? A free entry into every single UK Speedway meeting...
  11. Racing at the very top level... Kurtz would do exactly the same to him.. As it should be..
  12. Our very own Michael McIntyre.... As Bernard Manning would have said.. "About as funny as a burning orphanage"..
  13. He should not have signed for a UK team knowing he would inevitably miss meetings... Thank goodness that Richard is there...
  14. Maybe, therefore, less is more?.. I remember the Stox at the old place, they ran around 10 meetings a year, and got 3500 to 4500, depending on the meeting level... The Aces ran around 3 meetings a month and got the same number as the Stox did with one.. But the Stox atmosphere and "experience" felt more like an "event".. Maybe less, but better promoted Speedway meetings, with tangible decent prizes, is the answer? Something to look forward to?... The reality is, if team Speedway ended tomorrow, by next Sunday, hardly anyone will care, and those 80 million or so who don't attend, with the vast majority of them not even knowing of its existence, won't even notice it has gone..
  15. Was it the Leicester TM who said July was the aim to get next year sorted?... I suppose given the fact announcements like the one Workington's manager has made, it results in plans getting made, unmade, made again, and then even unmade again if another track says they won't run, or decides to change Leagues... With so much uncertainty, (even without any landlords suddnely pulling up any drawbridges), it must be hard to make too many commitments.. Add in chasing a TV deal, and how the impact of Poland's "one extra League" hits, (should it happen), and I would think it will be another "let's see where we are come November" before any firm plans are made..
