very interesting reading, doesnt that make the poole track fail the rules, not been there for a long time but isnt the pit gate as you exit the bend ?I think the drains are very close to the kerbs but it would be the cheaper option to move them than lose regualr fans and many away fans from wanting to visit knowing the problems.

Believe it or not i am not anti DH but i am annoyed that after last seasons shocking racing due to the track shape, he failed to correct the problem during the winter and in so putting the club at risk, some may not think so but even the hard core of fans will turn to other things sooner than later and some may think its negative but its not its a reality if the track isnt changed. mick, i find it amusing that you dont want to be in my circle however you seem you agree with me

The shape is the problem and banking would make no difference imho, its a real shame DH didnt model his new track like the one at kings lynn

all reports by those who went last night said the lack of racing and crowd levels were down again, when will DH take action as it will be so sad to see leicester shut like newport due to lack of fans.

you have to put abit of blame on ronnie russell, he opened the gates to jens rassmussen and peter schorak and the rest followed which limited the brits, then the end of the british league juniors,also national junior league that produced riders and also grasstrack brought in a number of riders. you only have to look at promotors over the last 20 years, they seem to rather give an unknown overseas rider a chance than a brit

So much has been said by home fans aswel as away fans over the last 12 months that it should have its on thread to debate it rather than take over match day threads even though the biggest talking points on match day threads is the non excistance of passing on a track that has one line and nearly impossible to over take unless someone makes a mistake. So why did DH Not build the track like the one at blackbird road, after all he had a blank canvas ?

I thought it was a great GP and a superb win for greg.

Leicester would be a ideal central track for the meeting,dont think they are going to start doing track changes till february if they do, so would be a good choice if newport is a no go

another bore with lack of overtaking, roll on next season IF changes are made if not i wont spend another penny there.

Simple solution, the home club supply 14 silencers at each meeting, riders just pick one and that will stop all possible cheating. The next thing will be engine sizes

I feel i have to agree with you

Alot of disgust yesterday about the insult of £5 off the conclusion of the fours, we went to watch a full meeting of the premier fours at a charge of £20, now it will cost £35 to have watched the fours plus extra travel,ect. When will speedway look after the fans. The mud was very dangerous and i hope nobody got hurt, as for the racing, again it was so boring and the restaging should be taken away from leicester as the track is not fit for speedway racing. Speedway ripping off fans again, what a surprise

Doesnt he have a tattoo of the aussie flag or did i read it wrong and its the st georges flag ?

Oh you mean the one who was wearing an aussie shirt cheering on the aussies in the world cup and helping them aswel.

Ronnie russell & others should hang there heads in shame for bringing british speedway down this low at international level and the future of us brits having a team in 5 years looks very bleak.

Well i only saw pratt myself, never saw anyone else all day and nor did the source who went walkabouts in the pits.

I think your find sky will insist on at least one brit

I had my doubts it was infact the british gp at cardiff yesterday,the amount of polish flags flying really out numbered the brits by a long way. Also sources said nearly all the british promotors stayed away. Is there anywhere in britain that could live up to that stadium and be in a city center, No will it be back next year it seems doubtful as they always plug it on the day.

she will be destroyed by the airhorns,she doesnt seem strong enough having seen her at butlins to perform at a speedway event like cardiff? Hope she proves me wrong as she seems a lovely person, i would much prefer the old timers like suzi q , bonnie tyler,tony hadley quality there than an x factor non winner.

What a great british final, pleased that we now have our top 2 at cardiff, only negative was that silly woman sky still persist in letting lose with a microphone asking stupid questions all night.

Plus she refused photos and autograpgh signings apparently, i thought belinda who

I have said for a long time that speedway needs more than just racing to bring in the non hardcore fans.

Simple,decent parents dont spend hours in pubs drinking, they spend hours of fun times with kids because before you know it they are old enough to go into pubs themselves and those magic years of your kids are gone. i liked the daredevil bikes, suzi was good as was tony hadley otherwise nothing much to shout about really

I know its sounds unbelievable for 2 talentless people but i think jedward would demand too much money now, possiby wagnor.
