  1. they know this, they've known it for some time. We all know it. And yet....
  2. would have been good to lower the 2nd div averages more and limit DU/DD with a view to seriously limiting it further in future but its another same old same old and you know what Einstein said.
  3. A former 1st division rider pulled me in at Felton and asked me what i did for a living. It was an office job and he gave up on me thereafter even though i was 19 and proficient in several physical sports (i was fitter than him thats for sure, and stronger). Ken Marshall on the other hand was very encouraging.
  4. in an ideal world but who is going to gamble huge amounts of cash to bring these people for their teams with zero guarantee crowds would increase and teams folding like dominoes. First things first, costs have to be controlled to ensure survival then build from there. No business would do it any other way. Costs are the only thing a business can really control - anything else has to operate at market level with other entertainments/ sports
  5. ££ - what you need is 6/8 riders challenging it as a test case.
  6. would have thought/hoped that Redcar want Kasper back
  7. I wouldn't mind but they look so amateurish and dodgy
  8. good question, however they don't face the same challenges as the UK seemingly
  9. everyone forgets that, and he'd meet fewer top riders per meeting £££
  10. tix were 80 odd quid and yes prefer earlier although Trick of the Tail and Wind and Wuthering are good. Anyway, off topic we'll be sanctioned!
  11. paid 6.50 a pint at Newcastle Arena for the Genesis gig last week, crazy
  12. land not suitable for housing my post says. The stadium land worth boatloads to them in return for a scraggy bit of land out of town. Just a suggestion like
  13. if the builders could source some land not suitable for housing but ok for a speedway track they could build to their heart's content and Robins could be safe
  14. to be fair, why would they move the structures in if they weren't going to use them. They could have just stonewalled. They're probably relying on noise complaints to shut the place down and build some more ticky tacky boxes, er I mean family homes
  15. I think we're supposed to infer that they are less likely to complain about the noise, not sure if that would be true. Never fails to amaze me that the folks near Brough Park don't go do lally as they overlook the pits and 1st bend.
  16. that was the worry in 1968 with BL2 but it worked out ok, lots of riders have drifted away due to lack of opportunity.
  17. Diamonds fans love a big number 1, that's the place to start.
  18. maybe offer a 630pm start for warm up, 7pm tapes up and 9pm curfew
  19. and if that doesn't work there's always arson and a terror campaign
