  1. Yes but Tobias' 2nd division Danish fixtures were mainly on weekends! Next season it's rumoured that he'll be racing in the Danish senior league on Wednesdays.
  2. Christ Harris should simply rise above it all!!😇
  3. It could also be said that a bike failure in heat 14 cost Poole the point that would have given them the aggregate!
  4. Assuming the points limit stays at 40 then Poole have to lose around 4 points from the current 1-7!!
  5. About the same number that Glasgow had at Poole. The management etc had to get their moneys worth having flown down with Ryanair!
  6. The weekly highlights programme could/should also have a list of next week's forthcoming meetings and which ones can be seen 'live' on BSN (Nothing wrong with a bit of cross-promotion).
  7. You cannot possibly believe that Tobias, Anders and Paul are 'gaters'?! As I've said before, there were some terrific exciting races on Wednesday - as there is every week at Poole - even though not much passing this week on a very smooth track. Close racing can be just as exciting as one with passing, more so if the home team get a heat advantage. Hence very decent attendances every week. As for any further comments, I'll pass........!
  8. What? Like Glasgow's usual prices for a seat!?😉 And they own their own stadium so get ALL the income!!
  9. Or as many Glasgow fans (and non-poole fans) are saying, as long as its good racing what's the problem?!
  10. 'Bothered' isn't the first word that springs to mind!
  11. A Wembley football final is a neutral venue. In a 2-legged speedway final, the 2nd leg track has an advantage if it goes to a Superheat so the 1st leg track will do what is best for its riders to gain as big a points advantage as it can.!
  12. Channel 4 or 5 might be the best bet? They are both trying to expand their sports coverage.
  13. Finance is always gonna be a big issue. Hence why Harry's contacts may well be of some use?!
  14. Even though Warner/Discovery/TNT are bigger than all the competition! Personally I'm not sure that full, live speedway meetings on any channel - mainstream or others - is the way to go in order to attract more people to actually attend meetings? A Well-produced highlights package once a week, including a regular 'where-to-watch next week' slot would surely generate more interest.
  15. 'Entertainment' is not just about 'passing' is it? There was plenty of close races which had many in the grandstand - me included - on their feet at times! The presentation itself was quite slick I thought (except for the 1st time DJ getting his music out of sync!), all 15 heats over in 1.5 hours with only one stoppage; flashing coloured lights at the finish line, coloured smoke (blue and red) for the team introductions; crowd chants, Mexican waves, rider interviews, dedication 'shout-outs' and a Pirates win! plus a post-meeting chance for photos with the KO Cup trophy! Whats not to like? and I bet those crowds will be back to be entertained again next week for the BSN Final.😇
  16. I just hope that Rocketman rushing away before the rider interviews at the end doesn't mean anything serious at home!!?
