B.V 72

Thanks for the love 😀. I tried to post twice yesterday but i was so pd off that my words were a little off for this forum so i deleted them. I started watching this sport in 1972 and have loved it .But how the sport has gone over the years has finally got to me. Three years ago i had a season ticket for both the Aces and the Colts .But this year i have been to watch 3 live meetings. I won't do a list of all the crap that has gone on over the last few years as you all will know. Its been building for a few years now and i have just realised that i cannot support a team in a sport that really is not a sport anymore its become a pile of contrived rubbish i have had enough. So unless feelings change i will be joining the many before me and walk away. I will still look in on this forum but not comment as i have retired and get a little bored and old habbits etc.

Going off the averages as they are now yes you can you could even keep Lidsey over Brennan and be under 40 If you change Lidsey for Brennan you could swap C Bailey for N P Toft at reserve who goes very well round B/vue.

Oops sorry what was the result of that race i missed it i nodded off.

On this video i saw all the action and all the passes. Eurosport should watch BSN and club streams to see how it should be done .Less is more all we want to see is as much of the action on screen as possible through out the race and not a camera switch every 2 seconds with close ups on board cameras and sky shots where they seem to miss most of the action and any passing in most races(Basically what you can see from the stands if you were there) .Eurosport cut your costs all you need is 2 or 3 cameras at most to film a race.

Agree i wanted us to keep Brennan.

Blodorn.

There is an aspect of the crime related to speedway that being speedway stadiums are full of older people. If he is accepted back i think he will get a hell of a lot of stick from the crowds where ever he goes.

Now we have debated the cost of streaming would anyone like to comment on what they thought about the Peter Craven memorial speedway meeting. Very enjoyable meeting .Well done Brady great performance a well deserved win, great race in the final between Brady and Dan . Thought the new boys to the Belle vue team Ben and Connor showed great promise for the season ahead. Got me back in the mood for speedway and now well locking forward to the new season ahead .The performances of all the Belle vue team gives me hope that the new team can make up for the forced weakening of last seasons team down to averages.

To me speedway is a sport and in sport you play/ride to win. I love close plenty of passing races as we all do. But if its my team that are getting passed great race or not i am still pi**ed off. I also go home feeling a lot happier if my team has won. Its why the play offs pull in much better crowds meaningless silverware or not fans want/hope to see there team win something it makes people happy.

There are 4 speedway of nations meetings to plug the gaps in July.

Could have had the top 3 +Wright Cook and Mountain and Bailey stronger imo.

Could have kept both Wright and Brennan releasing just Blodorn for a slightly weaker number 6. Keeping 6 of last seasons table topping team which would have i.m.o been a stronger team.

3.81.Just a point to look at Phil is that B Cooks average was achieved by riding at reserve for 11 of the 24 meetings so you would think that would bump up his average. While Wrights average includes no reserve rides and a proven number 4 for 3 seasons so for 0.15 of a point we could have keep him. Hope Lemon has someone better in mind.
