I'm an old person, been watching since the 1950s, these days I can't afford to go to many meetings and I can't afford to go legit with BT. Removing pensioner discounts could arguably be fair, but so could dropping the prices for everyone. Speedway is far too expensive for what it is, if it couldn't manage on lower prices, it should cut it's own running costs or go part-time.

Swindon Speedway: 2016 season tickets on sale, By Admin Nov 18, 2015, 10:42 Email this article Printer friendly page Swindon have unveiled their season ticket details ahead of the 2016 season. "The Robins are gearing up for an exciting year as they move to their new state-of-the-art stadium – and fans can now ensure they will be part of it." Well that's what it says, buy a season ticket and be part of a new season in a new stadium.

It certainly is great. I've been very impressed with our young riders and the improving set-up for them. Well done to Bomber and let's hope his fine example inspires other riders to do similar good deeds.

Reading the link would suggest that they ARE using the new stadium to attract buyers.

I could imagine far worse lineups than that.

Sorry! Brain malfunction! :-)

He's gone to Swindon (same race night). I read somewhere that he might be looking to miss the PL but I suppose that would depend on getting fixed up abroad.

Exactly and Payne has only ridden for three seasons, while some of the younger number 7s have been at it as long as Tai.

I'd be willing to pay the same amount as I pay to Eurosport. I don't see why I should have to abandon all my current set up and I won't. It's too expensive on my pension anyway.

One is not amused! ;-)

You certainly did! My apologies.

His GSA is 2.8.

Surely there is a standard courtesy to enquire with the owner of the riders contract before making an offer, and not disregard agreements already made. As I said before, the money thing is making the league very predictable.

You mentioned number seven.

Sorry, I didn't realise there were actually rules to control what any promoter can say and when he can say it.

If a rider has agreed a deal, or even shaken on it, then he has some right to be aggrieved. There is also the situation where every year, richer clubs can afford the best prospects and the league becomes rather predictable (as indeed it has).

Newcy.

He's over the limit for PL, so it's his only chance.

You'd prefer to be taken for a mug by Corbyn and Co.

You shouldn't believe everything you read.

Well hopefully you'd keep in time.

Just business sense. I should imagine Ben Morley would be a target for several small tracks south of Redcar, he'd be a good signing though. Also, I read somewhere that Tungate was wanting to go EL, he'd also be a good signing, I think he's been underperforming this year.

He's carrying out his dad's wishes, I would bet, much the same as Crumpie did.
