Different from what ? The Stadium should been built by early summer so if they meet with them they should have been told what the delay is and quite clearly there is a delay . If Ga have refused to talk or wont give any info then the statement should tell us that . That would show that the club are making a effort to chase it up rather that waiting for something that clearly is not going to come ....You cant keep quiet when your speedway club is on the verge of closing its about keeping the pressure on and keeping it in the public eye not doing what they want you to do .
-
In what way ? i said it works on the island but wont work elsewhere ...No reversing at all .
-
I think you guys doing a great job dont get me wrong .so its nothing against you guys ...Just saying that i don't think it will work elsewhere thou i could be wrong of course .. saying that Barry Bishops flying Circus has a certain ring to it Ps have you got Charlie Cairoli number ?
-
You already said that more people are on there hols in the uk after covid so your answer your own question ... Dont get me wrong Barry is good and what hes doing but the likes you have got ott about it ...Easy to run a speedway club for 6 weeks in prime summer . If Eastbourne close he can take it on and run these events between march and oct ... then we shall what the crowds are like
-
What are the stock car crowds like at the iow during the summer holidays ? The bottom line is we have had 30 pages about how speedway is ran as the cause of Eastbourne problems but no one knows for sure what has happened . For all we know someone could have there hand in the cookie jar . Lets up see the iow run the flying circus from march to oct next year to see what the results are .

Only if its for the better
-
The subject is Eastbourne .. Eastbourne had bigger crowds at a early stage so there plight the subject we are talking about has little to do with covid just rank bad mangerment .. To much is made of what is going on in the iow .. its a captive audience in Holiday season .Fair play to the people who run it because they have maximize it but the chances of it working elsewhere are zero
-
iow is speedway ran on a holiday island in holiday time . As for covid Eastbourne crowds were bigger at the start before covid restrictions were lifted .Do you really think that the iow circus act would work elsewhere ?
-
Of course they can... they can explain on what has happened when they have spoken to Gi i guess they have seeing no stadium is being built after yet another broken promise. even if Gi have given no reply to there questions . if they are not trying to contact them then that is even worst . its hardly a lot to ask . The lack of pressure put on Gi by the club the press and the local mp has been shocking to be honest . Looks like yet again another con by Gi is going to work with a barely a wimper of oppo
-
The fact remains in nearly every sport a winning team will get bigger crowds .. you might not like it but that is how it is
-
Of course it matters quite clearly not to you but to the majority it will ... People go to watch there team win
-
Short is a understatement
-
No statement from the Club about the stadium in ages on what is or in this case what is not going on ..a poor show by anyone standards
-
You wonder even if they do well what the point is .. You seen what Woffy and Lambert have done ... never ride in our league again and cant even be arse to ride in there own National Final . Bar doing well in the World cup -league of nations we get nothing back unless are league bucks up so these riders want to ride here

Kings Lynn Stars v Sheffield Tigers 19/08/21
orion replied to Bald Bloke's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I think Buster will ok once he's calm down , quite clearly he got upset about last nights events and made a heat of the moment statement ...Kl and Boro like most speedway clubs are worthless and impossible to sell in fact you cant give them away as they just lose money thou buster might do ok at KL as he's got less overheards etc I expect he will carry on running at Kl next year and drop Boro putting them at peril of ever running again . -
Yet again depends what they based there break even figure on and remember we knew about covid etc before the start of the season ... Its hard to figure out how a team after 16weeks can be so deep in debt . It pretty clear it's been poorly ran and has give it's self no wiggle room
-
Not really .. you pay what you can and cut you cloth to that level ...if your going to get 500 fans each week your team should reflect that just like any other sport and if you come near the bottom so be it . Eastbourne quite clearly put a shocking Business plan together based on silly numbers coming to watch
-
Sometimes to much is made of the state of uk speedway for the problems clubs face .... Should Eastbourne really be in this much trouble due to one or two bad crowds ? Who knows what go's on behind closed doors and if all funds etc have gone back into the club ...sometimes its just down to poor people who run the club
-
Dont agree 90 % will never go again and the other 10 % every now and again ....What forum members on here from Newport ,Reading .Cov or Oxford still post on here and went to Swindon each week ? i made friends with a quite a few from my time on here and none go on a regular basis most not at all and some may go to cardiff and take in the odd match . If Swindon close and that is likely none of are group will go elsewhere each week

Leicester vs Eastbourne. 14 Aug. 2021
orion replied to PowerfulPierre's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
People are saying Kennett was taken sick after his second covid jab .. it that what the crowd were told ? -
One of the biggest myths in speedway that fans of closed clubs they go to watch or support other teams ... hardly anyone from Reading ,Oxford ,Newport or Cov have ever gone to Swindon each week Sadly when Your club Closes down and that might happen at Swindon you give up and you don't go again
-
They were warned by a lot of fans about Gaming internationals proven behaviour but failed to listen the local Mp pretends to be the fans freind but really does not give a rat ass ... it wont be long before he tells them that he is looking for a new site etc what of course he wont be . The local press have been the worst .. they really should have been reporting on the timeline of lies and taking Gaming to task but have done nothing . As it stands most of the houses have been built and gaming can just wait Swindon out making them close

Nothing .. all gone into hiding

Why would he want to lower his average ? this is his only job .. Do people think before they put stuff down ?
