British Speedway Promoters Meeting
A ORLOV replied to dantodan's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Most fans agree that the youngsters need to be brought on but NL riders in an EL meeting is a joke unless they only race each other, then what is the point. Is this release one of KKS's. -
British Speedway Promoters Meeting
A ORLOV replied to dantodan's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Is this because Rosco nicked and ate all the chocolate digestives or the Scottish clubs want to use tartan paint on the inside line and not yellow. -
Reported in the local paper, Rosco wanting to use Swindon assets in 2014 which has already been mentioned. He has spoken to all of the Swindon assets including Mads and Simon Stead.

I would not be surprised if Jason Crump has duel nationality.

When Poole visited I spoke to a few people I had not seen before. Many had come to see the World Champion that they had seen in the GPs on the box, others had come to see Greg and Darcy. Any of these three attract fans.
-
Especially when you race Poole
-
That is good news and well deserved.

He needs to

Am I missing something as at present there are 10 EL clubs. Add Ipswich and Leceister that makes 12 already. An expansion to 12 does not leave room for Rye House unless one of the current 10 drop to the PL.

Team Gb - Middlo Quits!
A ORLOV replied to Barry The Cat's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
It would make sense to have internationals with Team GB against others, where the riders get more experience at that level, but with all the GPs and now the European Championships etc where is the time to have these meetings. -
Yes but where ?

MJJ seen in Swindon, I wonder if he may be the next Peterborough rider looking to move to the Robins
-
Swindon in a good position when it comes to team building for 2014. More on the Swindon website.

British Final 2014
A ORLOV replied to Julie Browne's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
If Poland,Sweden,Denmark etc have their own Championships is it too difficult to have them all, including the British Final, on the same day or weekend. -
Have been to dog racing a couple of times and have been surprised how few people go to it, but they do put out special offers and occasionally have top race meetings which pull more in. It seems that the racing is mostly run for the tv in the betting shops. The public tend to park next to the spectators gate but the carpark behind the stand is mostly used by the dog owners and the one behind the back straight is not used at all.
-
All possible parking will be needed for Speedway, the dog racing gets about 50 cars and the market only ever gets about one third of the number that Speedway gets for a normal meeting let alone something like the ELRC, the playoffs or the visits of Poole. It has been mentioned that the park and ride at Groundwell, if reopened, could be used.

No Sky Or League Sponsorship Money Etc...
A ORLOV replied to Phil's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Just contacted BT inorder to change my line rental agreement which saved a fair sum of money. While on the phone the person I spoke to mentioned was I interested in BTsport. I said not at present but if they did show Speedway I would take it up. He answered that he was surprised how many calls he had received mentioning Speedway and that part of his job is to send feedback from customers to the BTsport section. He has seen speedway in the past and mentioned that he would send another comment across about it, so all those looking to contact BT about reducing their future bills ahead of Jan 2014 when the prices go up do mention Speedway. -

We shall see.

For all the doubters out there there is an update in todays Swindon Advertiser, entry in the most read column which confirms the extra parking at the new stadium including parking on the centre green. www.swindonadvertiser,co,uk/news/10790189.Good_progress_being_made_on_stadium_plan/

Todays Swindon Advertiser has an article on the most read list about progress on the housing and new stadium development. With the change to more housing and less industrial development the car park for the stadium is being extended. It also confirms that additional parking will be allowed on the centre green of the stadium.

There are a few foreign organisations who beam sports with an option for English commentary , including sky, into the uk, and no doubt France as well. -
British Final 2014
A ORLOV replied to Julie Browne's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
These top meetings should be held at different tracks each year, also I would like to see the elrc held on a pl track and the plrc held on an EL track where no top pl rider doubles up. -
This is down to the shortsightedness and greed of the EL promoters(BSPA) who should have looked to the future and put some of the SKY money into training facilities and I would have also included an amount to all PL and NL clubs.
