  1. ONE person - Bartosz Kuczynski, from a Poznan "team" that doesn't exist, talks to Len Silver, and the whole thing is turned into an article about how Len knows best and how "Poles" (plural in the title) bow down to him for advice. Whoever wrote (spun) this story should add it to their CV when applying for a job with the political parties in time for the next general election.
  2. Matt Ford has done a lot of back-pedaling since then. Maybe he should take up cycle speedway? As for anyone objecting to Sky making money, there's nothing to stop you buying shares in BSkyB and benefiting from their business acumen. They are a commercial enterprise after all, not a social service.
  3. They are the right generation for most speedway fans too.
  4. So it sounds like there is still no sponsorship deal in place for the league(s) and a cut-off date has been passed whereby Sky can wait no more. Good luck with putting the show together which sounds like it's going to be as easy as herding a hundred cats.
  5. Maybe the continuing SkySports logos on the BSPA and GoSpeed web sites and the continuing use of the SkySports branded video - http://www.speedwaygb.co/whatisspeedway.html - tell there own story
  6. Live TV and Radio kill off attendances. With so many fans all over the country being elderly, it's a comfortable option to watch at home. Messing around with the race nights to suit TV schedules messes people about too. Birmingham's crowds increased after Radio WM were stopped from broadcasting. More important that crowds come in through the gates not stay at home. It's bigger crowds in stadiums that attract sponsors too. Maybe instead of live speedway, someone could do a roundup show at the weekend or something?
  7. Profitable as long as YOU don't have to contribute to the profits by paying for pay-per-view, you mean. Typical speedway fan. Are there any quotes from you complaining about tracks not having any money and not paying their riders by any chance?
  8. The fixtures are already on the Sportowefakty calendar for 2014. See the following page, and scroll back and forward though the dates to find what you are after. http://www.sportowefakty.pl/zuzel/kalendarz/2014/05
