I thought speedway riders put their lives at risk to entertain the public ? I don't think the fans come to see the ex mechanics and ex track staff so they shouldn't get in for free.

What a great idea, I think it would see a lot of ex riders return to watch the sport again and superb for the Ben fund. You just need to convince the BSPA good luck but great idea for a good charity.

it's only you and Fred flange who is asking for the name of a child and disabled person,that is wrong. I honestly don't care if you believe what i said or not as what I said is sadly true which shows some promoters are not fit to be in charge of a family sport.

Think what you want but both points are sadly true,. I don't think they should ask the name of the child or the disabled person under what was said, but I do understand Colin people are nosey for gossip but won't get names out of me.

If the promoter was to read it he may stop the kid riding.

Not right to give out names and I won't

Gavan thinks everyone agrees with him which is clearly not the case, maybe he should do a survey around the uk and he would find out a lot of people can't stand tai now, SS was spot on when he said tai is the most unpopular British world champion.

I am being 1000% truthful, I found it disgusting.

So Doyle sticking his middle finger up to fans (including children) and swearing is ok by you, I think this sums you up perfectly.

So are you agreeing with SS post ?

Totally agree SS top post

yes totally disgusting but had he been Darcy ward he would of had the red carpet treatment with his entourage coming in free with him. Yes to charge a mascot is simply wrong as he has to pay for bike fuel ect (or his dad does) so it's not a cheap night to do 3 or 4 laps.

I think holder has got good GP bikes, he is up for it this year.

I heard about a paralyzed young rider having to pay to get in where he had the accident that put him in the wheelchair for life,that I find disgraceful. I also know a mascot who has to pay to go in as does his dad. I have a friend who was a league 1 pro footballer he can take 2 people free to loads of games because they seem to look after ex players. The answer to ex riders getting in free should come in how many riders have raced for your team and how many ex riders do you see each week. If hardly any then they should get in free and not be lost to the sport.

No as tai has to worry about holder first then he has others chasing him, after emil's crash he wasn't as hungry for the world title so I don't see why tai would worry about him.

This post is far too sensible for most to understand but you are spot on.

you really are stupid as you clearly know very little about good PR Tai has selfishly taken away the real glory of whoever wins this year, that person would of wanted to win it with the British number 1 taken part, too think differently shows you have no idea. I think you should stick to being a lily savage lookalike and not discuss the sport you clearly don't understand.

I disagree as whoever wins this year will get IF tai was riding you probably wouldn't be British champion and also any rider in the British final who is happy tai isn't riding doesn't have ambition as you have to beat the best to be the best. I think bomber would be a good captain now, he has changed since his early days plus tai is to far up his own rear end to be a good captain. I would love to see a manager change back to middlo too.

You would also expect he would not only want to defend his title but to get race time on the new track before the World Cup ? You seriously believe the British final would get more PR without the British world champion? That is laughable Spoke in confidence so no unless they speak out

Your right the bspa are to blame on killing clubs, MK yes, Peterborough was nearly closed twice by them ,Coventry nearly closed twice,even Banned there promoter as he spoke out about Poole rule bending and the bspa banned him,fellow promoters in charge of the ban. The sport must have an independent board as its a dictatorship run sport.

I honestly don't think tai should be captain of the British team, I think bomber should be captain. Tai only won the British final on his home track where he had the track set up for him (including the shovel) would of been good to have seen him at the new venue against very hungry Brits this year. I know several riders feel cheated he won't be racing them in the final. Keep hearing about training schools but no dates ? Also if he is so busy and too tired to do the British final when would the training schools take place. Talking to a couple of promoters who also feel it is very damaging for British Speedway tai not wanting to ride in it as British world champion and reigning British champion who could of gone on and equaled the all time record of 4 wins in a row,all great for British speedway and the build up to an exciting British final, Tai not riding is a huge loss for decent PR for British Speedway. Oh I do think it looks a very exciting line up for Monday and looking forward to it.

Did the ref fine Doyle for his bad conduct towards the fans? Should get at least a £10k fine

How can they stop him going where he wants to in the stadium he owns. If he wants to take a walk into the pits he can and the bspa don't have a legal right to stop him as he paid for it. I agree with LionsDen he has upset so many people and I wonder if this now could be the end of Leicester speedway.

Wouldn't work

Wasn't it the ref that turned the lights off ? I don't get how DH can be banned from the pits and other places as he owns the stadium it's not there's.
