Easy to see each team have between 2 to 4 riders in the pl that don't ride in the top league or in another nations league ...the bottom line is we are heading for one big league anyhow so these riders will only have one club anyhow soon and will have a choice to be happy with only riding for one club or get another job of course
-
A lot of the riders do that now .. if there not happy then get another job
-
Really ? we have only got 17 teams left now with 3 or 4 in doubt ...how many riders ride at the moment overall in both leagues ? near a 100 ? sure we will lose a few of them but the numbers x riders x clubs are not that far off ... i admit its a bit of a pipe dream but by the same token its not as impossible as it sounds the way we are going . In a couple of years time we could well be down to 10 -12 teams and then it will be one big league with no double up riders anyhow . one way or a another that part of its going to happen
-
Depends What is more lucrative or more safe ... What we tend forget is that before these riders go to these more lucrative leagues they have to cut there teeth in the uk . It's maybe more lucrative for Woffy and Lambert to ride once a week in Sweden and Poland but not so sure about other riders of a lesser standard . i'm sure it would a tough choice for many .
-
Well sadly we tend to be losing 3 or 4 a year clubs a year so it wont be long when we can . Then riders can choose what they want to do
-
Depends how you look at it ,. imo is the the uk should have one big league and you should only be allowed to sign for one uk club and not join any outside the uk .. meaning we can run 7 days a week with no double up riders etc . Surely thats the way forward .
-
i think i just looked at GI history and the fact there first plan was to pulled the place down and build houses ... i think its harsh to think yourself as naive on this because they really went to town on this .. Big plans , Photo's with MP'S with Rosco , Clarke . arm and arm at council meetings etc etc .... Very hard not to think it would happen seeing how big the dream they were selling
-
I think most fans were never to worried about a new stadium and were more than happy to stay in the old one . Of course a new Stadium looked like it would secure a long time future for the sport in the town but of course Gam int have plotted, hoodwinked and conned every one as they do every time useing the building of the New Stadium to stop Swindon from running hoping to kill the club off so they can knock the old Stadium down with no one caring enough anymore to stop them . As i said already said its matter of time before the work will stop for some reason stopping us from running in 2023 as well
-
Not when its gaming int its not
-
What posts are you on about ? unbelieveable was your stupid gloating the moment you knew a digger in the car park you could not even wait a day to start giving stick to the people who never thought a stadium will be built ... What a idiot you look now. All Swindon fans want them to race again but don't want the total bull that is fed to them .
-
Suicide for Oxford to run at any level above Junior Nl etc ... Surely lessons have been learned from recent history ... Talking about running before your walking
-
Its been sad from start to finish from the club ....Still not one person will say how it is or question it .
-
i think most would think the polar oppo ...Speedway never done enough to attract the Younger fans that is quite clear by the ave age of the crowd hence why speedway is on its knees .
-
Yes .. Even after this time you still got a % of swindon fans who are looking forward to the 2023
-
Maybe he should just qualify if he's that good .. just a thought
-
Of course we know your age group and preference ....Your point was that Tv and Du riders somehow dictate the fixture list and only fixture fillers were ran in oct in the old days .. quite clearly none of that is true
-
Easy it happens in loads of sports and is accepted by the modern fan with no problem at all as the rules are known before hand .. only oap's who are stuck in a time warp cant understand or accept it . Yet again to show how stupid your point is the Pl has no Tv coverage but still has play offs and is still running in oct ... at the end of the day your just the standard old fan who wants no play offs want a one off world final wants to bring back the a Golden Helmet and to bring back second halfs etc
-
??? what does that matter .. without tv important league matches and Ko cup finals were still ran in oct .. hardly end of season fixture fillers. People points about Tv are utter garbage . Live Tv or No live Tv the season has always ran to the End of Oct ... how good the 16 lapper etc were has nothing to do with that point
-
What sport would think it would be better with no tv ? No one cared about the tactical ride and it was much better and fairer than the old ts rule that every figure showed you gave you more false results where was the live tv then ? . ..Nearly every other sports have plays offs including ones that are not on tv they are a massive plus and are part of todays modern sport . Also the sport has always ran to the end of oct and has always had important meetings and cup finals .... so yet again little to do with tv ...
-
Yes they never had cup finals in october in the old days did they ... Du riders are needed one because there are enough riders in the first place and two i doubt if many could be a pro rider without two teams ....nothing to do with greed .
-
The timing of the building work is perfect from Gaming int ...Means that Swindon wont know if the work will done in time meaning they have to say they can't run in 2022 . Another year then go's by and people lose even more interest before they find another reason next year .
-
As suspected the Stadium has no chance of being ready for 2022 and using sections that are not fit for purpose ... Another Gam int con
-
Why dont you wait to swindon are racing at the new track before you get your i told you so comments in ...... From what the builders have been saying i am not sure its going to be as straight forward as some people are thinking .... Yet again people getting carried away are putting far to much trust in Gaming int . I have a feeling this has a long way to run yet .
