  1. Agree with a lot of the above points . I have travelled over Europe for the old World Finals , the old Tee Mill Tours !! Even saw a meeting in Denmark where you had to go through someone's back garden to the track ! All that I want is a realistic points limit , a bigger division where you not racing the same teams every other week , not to have to have to guess if there's a meeting on & most of all REGULAR WEEKLY SPEEDWAY ..If this means goodbye GP riders so be it ..I cant tell you how much I envy the supporters of clubs like Sheffield or Glasgow , they get Speedway every week on a regular race night & not messed about by TV.
  2. If NONE of the other clubs in the Play Offs promotions have any problem with the signing of Woffinden & Lindback lets just get on with it ! ..I am sure if anything wrong had been done the other clubs would be all over it like a rash .. In my opinion Woffy makes Wolfs a lot stronger ..but I think there is not a lot in it regarding Lindback ..... Just one question WHO will start the " Cheats Never Prosper thread " ? ( there is not a prize )
  3. Perfect solution , Bomber signs for Wolves & rides Mondays in the elite ..Bees go Premier League & rides for Cov on Fridays !! Bomber gets more meeting & a healthier bank balance & the Bees supporters get 1.Garrity 2.Roynon 3.Bates 4.Sarj 5,Harris 6,Ayres 7Jorgensen & have a successful season .. Just a thought !!!!
  4. Good Luck to Bomber wherever he rides next season . I for one hope he is allowed to double up & make a good living from our sport. NEVER ever let his club down , rides on Fridays before GPs & ALWAYS takes a guest bookings . Wish there were more like him . Cant fault him .. ALL THE BEST !
  5. Could not agree with you more . The only thing that seems certain is that Hans will be at Poole & Doyle will be at Swindon as they have got written contracts . The things " people have said " include at set race day which included a day when greyhounds is raced at one of the stadiums , Lions & Stars dropping down & Glasgow coming up , the list goes on !! , its just rumour ..At this moment in time there are possibly only a couple of promoters who have any idea of next years team & what the points limit could be .
  6. Think Pirates will shade this one , with the reserves being key ..Safe meeting to all the riders & safe journey home to all Pirates supporters .42-48
  7. Great to see the Coventry Promotion doing this .KK commitment to the Bees this season has been first class . Lets hope they get a good crowd & good weather .
  8. Perhaps the Coventry Promotion will take this into consideration & make a reduction in admission prices & try to attract a larger crowd .
  9. Get Well Soon Charlie , sure you will come back stronger & continue to put yourself out for others ..x
  10. Has British Speedway really become the second class citizens of the sport , just living off the scraps & being an after though for riders ?
  11. Perhaps not as many if the leagues amalgamate & we stop pandering to the few " superstars " that the Elite revolves around .
  12. Totally agree , every club should have a home meeting every week & stop this stupid " lets guess when the speedways on rubbish " ..
  13. Could you go back to having a FIGHTING BEE on you race jackets instead of the ridiculous hornet / wasp thing that you have now ..Its the BEES !!
  14. Some supporters will vote with there feet ..its the 16/17 quid to watch 9 premier league riders which a few fellow fans don't like . If its a good meeting & your entertained who cares whose riding ?? Anything can happen on the night 60-30 or 30-60 !
  15. If you are waiting in the car park & not paid to get in how can you be refunded money you aint spent ?? Is the track that wet ?
  16. Was in the Midlands & went to the meeting last night I estimate the crowd was possibly 1500 ? About 20 from Poole .. Fair play to Steve says what he sees & stands by it he was there & has an valid opinion . Its quiet easy to sit & have little digs from behind a keyboard , please stop reacting to people winding you up & the world will seem a really happier place .. HONEST ..
  17. From a personal point of view Frank was the one I was thinking of at the time , although different eras have different heroes & its applicable to any rider who has the nerve & balls to even ride a bike ..
  18. I was at Brandon last night & enjoyed the meeting . good racing , some passing , result in doubt until the final heat , what more could you want . Also like the way the meeting was run by the ref , 2 mins on after riders cleared the track from the previous heat . Steve is correct Hans cost Poole the match . he had an off night , so what ALL riders will have them during the season . .. Rumours from the locals I heard last night ,, 5 more years .. An agreement to build housing & keep the stadium open . .. What I don't understand IF this is the Bees final year why has no FINAL meeting been announced or even planned .. Olsen , Andersen , Knudsen ,Miller Jorgensen ,Smith ,etc the stars of the past return to say goodbye to the place at the Brandonapolis meeting .. ??
  19. A last heat decider would be a treat . Think the Pirates are odds on but the second half of the Sky match Monday must give Bees fans hope ?
  20. Hope its a good close meeting 4pts either way would be spot on ..In the Midlands & will be attending this one .. Hope the weathers good & a big crowd . How many Pirates making the trip up ?
  21. That's not just you club though is it ? Most teams have more PL standard riders than " Stars " Anybody know what % of riders only ride Elite ?
  22. Think its par for the course now days & your opinions are sadly echoed by many , many other disillusioned supporters . Think we need an " EMPERORS NEW CLOTHES " type of moment from a forward looking Promotion !!! HELP , is there ANYBODY out there ?????????
