  1. Rick Frost and his team did this at Peterborough, Neil Machin and Nigel Hinchiffe did it throughout Yorkshire, hundreds of free tickets given away and not even double figures utilised. Machin even gave away a free DVD that got them free admission if they showed at at the turnstile.
  2. Which is why Promoters shy away from many of the ideas mooted on this thread. They can't win if they introduce a low cost initiative like free tickets the existing customers harangue them
  3. and if I believe what I was told some current paying supporters joined Unison to gain cheaper admission not withstanding those that joined the National Union of Students to all of a sudden earn concessions which is why Machin binned it.
  4. I think most of the breeze was blowing up Damien's arz
  5. Not Buxton, look back over this thread
  6. God's country, up there? Beeky Chastard
  7. He was kept out of prison when he was younger by Chris Morton and David Gordon who gave him a job learning Speedway. The probation service worked with them because they too believed Jason could be turned around and all the time he was under their influence his nose was relatively clean. Another club poached him and without adequate guidance and supervision he went slowly off the rails again. It's possibly no coincidence that others at that club also ran close to the wire resulting in violence and injury to the point where one of them cannot enter the UK.
  8. Absolutely nothing King's Lynn can do either
  9. Always managed to get wet fingers in Worky..................
  10. Maybe just maybe UKVI have some involvement that delays any announcement until all the rubber stamps are in place.......
  11. There is absolutely no obligation whatsoever for a rider to accept a guest booking, some riders who are young in their careers have day jobs too so getting time off for a guest booking can be a challenge. Please don't assume that a rider is available for a guest booking just because that rider is not riding anywhere that day and heaven forbid that Keith is blooding one of his younger assets by giving him track time at this level.
  12. "Do us a favour Keith, can you send a couple of photos of a busted gate and a bit of fence? They must have bent a post so one of that as well then we can can kill all this crap on the internet. It's better than you feigning a heart attack or pulling the distribution board stunt they've been done to death as have the sun off and burst water bowser. Oh by the way when you pulled the distribution board stunt did you know that CEF keep the parts in stock? (Just in case you need to go again with something) - I'd suggest an archeological find next time, nobody's done that yet!"
  13. The current situation is even worse at that site, it is a haven for anti social behaviour strewn with empty gas canisters and other abhorrent paraphernalia of the night. The hotel is tired beyond belief and the football ground soon to be derelict yet it's far enough away from the Nimbys to disregard these elements. The site is perfect for redevelopment and is only the width of the M25 away from retail, industrial and major storage facilities so in terms of air pollution this sites contribution will be a pimple on the ar$e of the problem particularly as the Dartford Crossing is less than a mile away.
  14. Wow! Looks like you're calling the shots .................... Richard Head
  15. All of the news coming from this venture is fabulous for the sport, the custodians of the sport need to recognise this and propel Workington as an example and maintain a position that encourages investment in the sport. To mire this club with the usual political self serving bollox will deter anyone from investing in this sport forever. BSPL this is your opportunity to nurture and promote investment in the sport, burn it and you have fukt Speedway forever
  16. Tony Mole explored this beyoned all reasonable expectations and whilst the previous owners were receptive in principle the local authority were not prepared to consider a proposal and the grief from local residents once a whisper got out was horrendous. It was negative all the way.
