You know, despite what we say about the sport itself, do you think that the stadia that alot of clubs are based at has a detrimental effect on gaining new support? Football at the professional end, say leagues 2, 1 & the championship and premier league have had to bring there stadiums/playing arenas into the 21st century.... And alot of speedway arenas are pretty rough and ready (I know alot of speedway clubs are in hired arenas) and have little or no control over the condition of them, but it has to put some new punters off after a first visit... If rhis is the case, are there any solutions available to the promotors in these circumstances. ..... I don't know the answer to this one, the lifetime supporters will and do put up with this because its mostly all they know, as this aspect hasn't really changed in the last 20 years....

Is the Speedway Star going to be available through the new internet magazine outlet pocketmags com? Just seen it advertised on TV? NTO

That was meant to be funny! ! Results of the [ poll vote ] Poll Vote [ Pole Vault ] Never mind, its getting late.........

Well when I phoned BT to ascertain the poll vote, I was told there were no nominee's from Any athletics field events!!! Bom, Bom!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Garry Middleton once turned up at Leicester in his Rolls Royce!!!!!!!!! Citroen Safari was the car Les Collins used at Leicester, he could squeeze 2 bikes in and associated kit, and I am sure I once helped him manhandle 3 out his Citroen (TARDIS) Safari!!!!!!!

I am sure he posts on here, just cannot remember his ID.. . I will keep looking, if anyone reads this and knows his ID or Mobile no, please PM me.... Cheers NTO

Funny how all threads nearly always end up with an argument, that is usually nothing to do with the original post! I personally like and admire all the COLLINS boys, must have been an interesting breakfast table in the early days!!!

Yes, I know he's on FB, I left FB nearly a year ago today, got really fed up with the whole thing...... Never mind. Will try other media options..

Yes, its a good idea, puts speedway in another media stream, and its a good cause to boot...

So, Tai won the minority sports person of the year, so is speedway better off as a big fish in a little pond (best minority sport) or little fish in a big pond (competing against Football/Rugby/Golf/Cricket)? What do you al think? NTO

Does Steve have a posting ID on here? if he does, don't seem to be able find it.... If he does, can someone pm me his id so I can pm him.. please. Cheers Never to Old.

Hi, I'm having trouble with your email address, my reply keeps coming back as "address not found" Do you have a physical address that I can post my answers to? I will include a signed bank paying in slip to make it easier to send me my winnings... Please hurry as I am desperate to win this..

Maybe we just don't trust anyone anywhere anymore....

Hmmmm, ouch! I remember seeing that one, if I remember it was a wet one, no, very very wet, I thought it might get called off after that one... wasn't it just in the straight? Might not have been an airfenced area even now.......?

Oh dear, hope he makes a speedy recovery so we can continue our banter on the Leicester centre green pit turn...
