So very, very true ff. -
The continuing decline of Speedway
The White Knight replied to wealdstone's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I find the whole Sport very depressing at present HT. What has happened at Rye House has got me wondering who will be next? Sadly I find it quite feasible that a number of other Clubs could go the same way. I was stunned to hear Belle Vue mentioned as being possibly among the Tracks we need to be concerned about. Where will it all end - I wonder? -

He is a disillusioned former Supporter, who is as entitled to his views and to air them, as you or I. At the end of the day - that is what the Forum is for HT. There are a lot less People Posting on here these days - I wonder why? -
Very sad to hear this News. I too would like to think that Rye House could be resurrected next year - but - on a cautionary note, as a Sunderland Supporter who lost his Track in 1974 the resurrection may not happen. I seem to remember Posting somewhere on here that some Tracks who moved up from the old 'Premier' League to the then 'Elite' League would live to regret it - sadly - it seems I was right. My sympathies go to all those loyal Rye House Supporters - I know how they feel - CRAP!!! I still do in regard to Sunderland - and that was 44 years ago.......

I can think of someone who should be in the same boat as regards his Bullying and Trolling. I wonder who that could be? Just saying.............................

Sadly - I think you are right. One can, however, live in hope.

How good was the racing at the Shay.?

That must have been a sight to behold. -

Difficult to argue with anything you say there Hawk127. But will British Supporters accept no foreign Riders or 'Stars' in this Country. Would the Fan Base drop even lower without them? -
The problem is they ( the Newspapers) don't print the information given - they used to years ago - why not these days? There must be a reason why they stopped?

You could Note Mr. Snackette's final comment in his Post GD.

British speedway: it's not all bad, you know!
The White Knight replied to TonyMac's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Like Sunderland against Newcastle and Middlesbrough in 1964 and Sunderland against Teesside 1971 to 1974. Newcastle v. Redcar can get pretty tasty today - but sadly - not the same as back then. -
Sad News. R.I.P. + Kelvin.

Niche Sports TV - Promoting Speedway
The White Knight replied to NickRushbrook's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
What a charmer. -
If the Programmes are not revenue earners for their respective Clubs - then the answer to your question - No. A lot of people do like them though, and there are a lot of avid Collectors out there. It would be sad for them if Programmes were to be phased out. Up to each individual Club I suppose.

I do attend Home Meetings. My critical comments are about Away Meetings. You are correct - I don't go to Away Meetings - but crucially I can read. Lindgren's Scores Away from Home tells you everything you need to know to criticise. I clearly stated, he can be brilliant at Home - I go to most Meetings at Brough and I can see that. -

The White Knight replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I suppose. It is very frustrating though, when you see how he can ride at Home. -
You may well be right Vince. I am not very technical. 'Briggo' however believes the same as myself as I read it and what he stated made sense to me.

The White Knight replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
I only ask - do you think his Away performances are up to scratch? In answer to your question - score more Points Away from Home. He can be terrific at Home - why can he not produce that sort of form on his travels. Or - is that an unreasonable question? -

The White Knight replied to ScunnyDan's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
So you say he is inspiring the Riders AWAY from Home do you. I must politely disagree. His Points return AWAY from Home is shocking - or - are you saying otherwise? -
World Championship Pairs
The White Knight replied to Mark's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I quite agree.. Well done to Russia. But if there was any natural JUSTICE - we won that. Once again Speedway is made to look daft - situation normal then. Television has a lot to answer for. -
A very interesting Information source. Well done and Thank you.
