  1. Ellis had two laps warning he was in the wrong place on the track but his lack of awareness was shocking allowing Thorsell through around him. I was shouting for him to move out!
  2. This could have been held at Bydgoszcz. The locals would enjoy as would we the fans for the racing.
  3. The whole event is just set up for the Poles to gleefully win it. Yet again. Have it at Wolves and see what happens.
  4. It’s on Supersport Motorsport. Good stream with Kelvin and Chris Louis. why on earth didn’t they open the gates and have free entry? Could have got a decent crowd and not lost much money.
  5. Hopefully the weather won’t be the winner tomorrow. Rain due to come in during the evening. Fingers crossed it’s a couple of hours later than predicted and the ref pushes the meeting through at a decent pace.
  6. I am going to hazard a guess here and be polite and say that you haven’t been reading my posts. If Glasgow did the sensible thing and streamed, I wouldn’t have posted about it in the first place.
  7. Poole and Plymouth are done for a fraction of that price. They should have a word with the Edinburgh promotion or Redcar who both do it in house. And well less than a grand. Where’s the expect if done in house?
  8. Non story. Every track prepares their track for their team.
  9. I know about this. True I don’t sell cars like the Facennas, but they are not skilled in my area of business either. Clearly they are raking it in at Glasgow Speedway not to worry bout a trifling few thousand quid extra a week that a stream could generate.
  10. There shouldn’t be a dead heat with transponders. You can go hundredths of a second, then thousands of a second to separate the riders.
  11. Best meeting I have ever seen from Berwick. Some good racing and Borke is a find. Craig Cook looks like Emperor Ming.
  12. It really is that straight forward. You can buy all you need taylor made setups that need very little tinkering. You do need camera operators, a person to operate the desk, and a couple of commentators. Redcar do it on a budget and it pays for them. Think they only have a 2 or 3 camera setup and one is unmanned. In fact, a one camera setup with commentary is all that is needed for a basic stream. It doesn’t have to be at the same standard as BSN. The guys that do Poole and Plymouth would certainly advise to what is required. Let’s be honest we all want the sport to prosper regardless of rivalries. Every club should offer a streaming service. It doesn’t affect attendances and brings in bonus revenue. To refuse the service is poor business acumen. Just take next Sunday as an example. Plenty of speedway fans would be interested in watching Glasgow v Poole. Say 150 Poole fans signed up for the stream, plus another 100 fans from other clubs. 250 paying 11.99 = £2997.50.
  13. I am well aware hence saying they are losing the nice earner of streaming meetings.
