So how will they be paid if not many fans turn up because it's been an over priced practice match that there not interested in seeing at full price.

I was really expecting it to be £10 max let's hope your wrong or it will be a poor crowd at full price for a friendly against a premier league team.

Maybe Steve Brandon should do what Briggo did and do a walk for ALL disabled former riders and not just pick the one who has already had huge financial support and then admitted to having put away enough money when racing to buy a nice house on the Gold Coast.

Probably more than 12 , pedersen,crump,gollob,hancock,ward,holder,woffinden to name just a few of the current and recent riders who have made a real fortune.

How many riders became millionaires over the last 15 years ?

How much is it to get in next week ?

Did I insult you with name calling ? No I don't go every week but I would if the racing was over 4 laps and not just to the first bend. Are you saying the product is good and worth the money ? your wrong with your last remark but not sure what that has to do with me making my own opinion on something you clearly have a problem understanding.

How about the 5 years it's been back and the amount of people who have walked away wishing it hadn't returned as it was boring. How about the fact the season ended last August and they have yet to Finnish turns 3 & 4 plus with No sign of doing turns 1 & 2 ? How about the stadium, yes it's a good stadium to watch if the product was worth watching. You can try and polish it up but the fact is the fans have not seen real value for money since it opened.

If I borrowed your glasses I probably see things a lot different but sadly I have seen awful racing,crowds disappearing and a poor line up for 2016 with only bends 3/4 just about completed, so what is there to be positive about at the moment concerning the lions ?

I feel unless you raced and seen how disrespectful they are to British riders then it's unfair to have a dig at nicholls. Every rider would want to ride for his country as many times as possible in a short career but treated fairly which has not always been the case for Rico,Scotty and others plus to opt out is a big decision not taken lightly.

I agree about being surprised nobody has been seriously hurt or worse, the track was the worst I have ever seen.

it is only paying off for them if people use there company but sadly I have never heard of them or even know what they do ? I wonder if there sponsorship money will be spent on a good number 1 now

It took DH a very long time watching the crowds drift away before it sunk in that what everyone was saying needed to be changed, let's hope it makes a difference and crowds will return.

So you think there grand opening date in Manchester may not happen then? Will BP be ready too ?

It would only be good if it allowed the management to afford to bring in a world class number 1 that would bring in the crowds. It's not a company I have heard of but well done them for sponsoring the team when it seemed nobody were interested.

As everyone knows Matt Ford runs speedway and Poole race night is Wednesday so I bet that will be the night chosen plus Jon Cook is not the brightest of people so I don't trust what he says anyway.

The fixed race night will be on a Wednesday

Why the club fails to get sponsors maybe 1) poor team 2) poor track 3) poor website 4) poor media pr at the club 5) poor advertising for sponsors with only one meeting a season on sky Just a few possible reasons

How many riders will the lions have once the polish and Swedish leagues starts ?

Looking for a boys kevlars age 10 but a chunky 10 Thanks

Was she in charge of team building then

I guess a lot of people thought it would be a waste of time as the promotors have failed to listen for the past 30 years and that's why the sport is in this mess.

Out of interest, does DH give the volunteers free tickets ?

£21 including programme I think Leicester will struggle to get people to go with that team line up. I guess the promotion will not charge that price for the friendly match against Sheffield or BP would be empty.

Leicester City has surprised the football world with no big stars at the start of the season and are top,maybe the Leicester speedway team can do the same and win the league ? Who knows
