Belle Vue National Stadium
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
the project looks a rather modest cost in comparison to other ventures in the city. This week I saw the proposal for 'The Factory' an arts theartre and music venue. Cost was £110m with £22m coming from the council. A dual stage venue with total capcity at 7300. The NSS was a fraction of that. -
preferably against a full strengtg Kings Lynn side

Fixtures due for release 9am Tuesday 24th so looks like its all decided. Just need confirmation of what the decisions are..... -
Coventry 2017

and you cant really blame those riders if they do. Horton has had a tremendous amount of goodwill (which probably he doesnt deserve personally) from the riders due to their respect for the club and the fans. Lets hope the decision to stick with him is justified for those that have. -
i like that idea in principle too - particularly as it could assist continuity and a team identity. The one question mark would be teams finding and/or affording sufficient higher quality riders to boost up the lower average teams. This would be a year on year issue too as if teams are building to say 47 points then overall the totals will fall regardless of which riders come in - you could have the top 70 riders in the world filling the 10 teams but there are only 90 points to claim from each meeting.

presumably this is for the base. You can still prepare it like an over watered ploughed field after its nice and flat underneath if you choose.... 😆😆 -
The limit will need to be higher again. 42.50 or above. Of course there could be a further shuffling of teams/leagues which throws it all open again.

i hope he can get to somewhere around 4.

Great to hear that the healing process has gone well for Danyon. Heres hoping he can continue on the steep improvement curve from 2016. An exciting talent and a great level headed lad.

yes if he has a choice that will be his answer 😛 -

which leaves Bewley and a 2 pointer to fit.... -
From the reports this morning there were 1100 travelling Town fans - probably a similar number as regularly attend Foxhall. When people say Speedway is a £10 sport and current admissions are too high/poor value that doesnt really stack up. Those 1100 wouldve paid £25 a ticket and at least the same travel and will do it again and again despite the dross served up. So price IMO plays only a minor part in attendances.

its all about balance - the Witches to make up for it.⚽➖ 🚴➕

Keystone Kops stuff! 😆😆

i think the speedway boys would do better on the pitch tonight that the shambles against Lincoln in the first half....

hehe - obviously youve been following my debate with GRW123 on the Kings Lynn pages 😆 They dont always mean a lot if theres no common sense attached too - some would argue thats where I fall down!(particularly on this pussycat thread) 😈 -

My initial response was pitched at the level of your own first effort Arch Stanton. 😜 Now your effort is much more reasonable and has a few valud points. I paticularly agree with you '3 season' point. This is something I have in my mind about rider progress in general not just for Holder. If a rider stays still for 3 seasons then generally he has found his level IMO. There will always be a few examples that buck the trend although even with those there will often have been an underlying reason. -

Glasgow 2017
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv replied to damosuzuki's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
even though he will be part of one of my teams main rivals I still want him to really kick on. An exciting talent and British Speedway needs him and more like him. -
Where are you Gavan? Wake Up! Holder just ran a last on his home track! 😛😜

And there was me thinking that GRW123 chose that username because that was as far as they could count..... 😛 Point 2 is flawed - all things being equal the 14.28 wont automatically be lost. Infact the standard drop will be about half that. PS In the exam 'pi$$ing contest' I also got O Level maths at 15 and A at Level 17. To fill the six months after the O Level I took an O Level Statistics and got grade A in the following June. 👅👅 -

I dont think you have grasped the impact of the multiplier. It was to equalise the comparative figures from each league. Therefore it doesnt matter whether a teams 7 are all former EL all former PL or any mix inbetween. It has also been shown on various threads by those with extensive statistical nouse that barring a minimal number of anomilies (eg Klindt) it was a very good fit for actual performances. -

unfortunately doesnt mean a guarantee it will turn out that way. Bound to be more twists and turns in the sorry saga before the conclusion either way. But at least there does appear to still be some hope -

Bruv has been with Danny today and as it stands right now he is still signed to the Bees and isnt looking or able to sign elsewhere as the official line is still that Coventry will run.
