The White Knight

Do you wish to Bar me from this Thread? Have a word with the Mods. You and your ilk are no advertisement for Leicester Speedway believe me. You are quite right, I haven't been to Leicester Speedway but reading what you and others say on here leads me to conclude that it isn't worth going. THAT is the effect you are having. You should take up your differences with your Promoter and NOT continually slag him and your Track off on a Public Forum. I will NOT attend Leicester Speedway not because of the Track - but because of what YOU have told me on here. YOU HAVE PUT ME OFF!!! Well done - even LESS money for Leicester Speedway. A GREAT Supporter you are. :rolleyes: Oh!! and by the way - I attend Newcastle Speedway EVERY week except when I am on Holiday (couple of weeks a Season) and I thoroughly enjoy it and get royally entertained.

Not if the Customer ends up getting the whole shebang closed down. Just WHO does that benefit?

In view of some of the problems at Leicester - do Supporters really think that 'having a go' is helping? If I were DH reading this Thread - perhaps I would dig my heels in even more.

I would just like to add that it is GREAT waiting for 'BackTrack' and 'Classic Speedway' dropping through the letterbox. They are BOTH great reads. :approve: These Magazines take me back to happier times - for that I am grateful. Keep up the good work Retro Speedway.

I like your thinking.

Why oh why did Lindgren have to move off his line on the last bend? I was totally gobsmacked. Well done Monarchs' - I think you have the best Rider in the League this year. Cook was awesome.

Well something has to be done to make Speedway a viable proposition.

The fact that we are having this Discussion is proof enough to me that the Elite League is no longer Elite. The Sport HAS to be run on a sound Financial footing. If Tracks cannot afford certain Riders, they should not have them. This Recession we are in will go on for a long time yet - we MUST cut our coat according to our cloth. If we don't, then there is nothing but trouble ahead.

I'm not arguing with you on that. What I AM saying is that Glyn did NOT try to kill off Redcar Speedway as you implied in your Post - that is all.

My point exactly - but you put it far more nicely than I.

Yes - I believe so.

............................ and also SOME Elite League Supporters. :angry:

I prefer Speedway. :shock:

Very well put Sir. :approve:

VERY well said vivabossman - that is it in a nutshell. Whatever Glyn did or didn't do - he provided a GREAT Track for Riders to Race on. That fact alone should NOT be forgotten. He ALWAYS did his best for Redcar Speedway. Sometimes things don't work out and, sadly, it didn't for Glyn - he made some mistakes - BUT - don't we all?

Better off getting it on Subscription - cheaper as well. ................................ and a GREAT read too. :approve:

You can only Race on the Track that is there. If Ludo had the ability to keep someone behind him for all of the Race - that in itself is a skill. :approve:

Entry of the Gladiators at Sunderland and Knock three times. If I ever hear either of them on the wireless - I am transported, in my mind, back to Sunderland Speedway. I thought it was only me - great to know others have the same experience.

Great News that.

No - 'Tiger' Beech. Former Rayleigh 'Rocket'.

Rubbish - Glyn Taylor did not TRY to shut down Redcar Speedway. OK he made some mistakes at Redcar - but crucially Glyn is still one of the BEST Trackmen around Speedway today.

Hope you are NOT being facetious GC.

I sincerely hope that you are not a Member of the Leicester Intelligentsia. :rolleyes:

We would probably still have the 'one off' World Final.

I don't know if they do Matt. I agree, though, they probably do.
