  1. nothing those landlords do would ever surprise me but what on earth is there angle(and they will have one) in making life so difficult for the speedway???
  2. good options there fozzie, though they might gamble on a comfortable home win and go for a cheaper option
  3. ray surely if gaming international wanted "out" of the lease they would sell it themselves and not give it back to the council for them to sell(clarke osborne hasnt got where he is today by giving things away!!!) Its my opinion for what its worth that they have no intention of offloading the stadium,too many possibilities in the pipeline over the next few years
  4. lewy the information was sent to me by txt from a significant poole sponsor, it does however appear to have been wrong,and i regret posting said information on the forum
  5. heard plymouth cant get a team together on the 2nd !
  6. fully understand all your points re online ticket sales only and if each match is a "sell out" then its best way to go,however if all tickets are not sold then you need "walk up"" on the day sales.The occasional follower or holidaymaker is not going to bother with online purchase but the promotion cant afford to lose these customers(supermarkets have happily taken our money at the checkout). On another note i just hope the bcp council plays ball and is not to awkward,think the old poole council would have been right behind the speedway but not sure about the bournemouth and christchurch mob!!
  7. so why write on 9th march "info coming soon" when it clearly wasnt? also you me and everybody else would know if stadia uk had any other sports/activities lined up for the stadium the speedway promotion would not be privy to this info
  8. cant see any promotion risk charging " £20 a head" for league racing bob,would be a lot of resistance to that price amongst fans
  9. wish all young riders success but all being labelled a rising star isnt going to help them,obviously theyre not "stars" a really silly name
  10. eastbourne could bring him to add some muscle for the matches against glasgow
  11. im assuming theyre not stupid people so why do they waste our time putting out such a stupid statement?
  12. clarke osborne has kept terry russell in the dark all along matt,i doubt even the senior managers at stadia uk know any details,i believe matt ford has at times found it impossible to even make contact with osborne let alone get any information from him.There may be other reasons as well but i believe the total and continous frustration and despair with the stadium situation has contributed to terry russels decision.
  13. sadly neither one would have any clue whats going on
  14. i think theres a realistic chance of speedway this yr jenga, Im taking a punt that a government which has pretty much got everything wrong or at best timed most things badly, must eventually get lucky and get something right ! that something being the vacc rollout,heres hoping.The only things that would dampen my optimism would be matt hancock saying he was in control and confident or bojo saying we are the best in the world at vaccinating !!!
  15. 25,000 at this mornings match in perth,varys from state to state,they are relocating a few matches because of the 3 day lockdown
  16. didnt make any comment on how covid spreads ove, just stating the fact that there are now large crowds at some aus sporting events
  17. they dont have a bojo and his clowns in charge!!
  18. been watching the "big bash"from aus on sky, decent crowds at most matches,16,000 yesterday,no requirement for the crowd to wear masks or socially distance,overseas players in hotel for 2 wks before joining the squad
  19. i presume the polish club is fronting all the costs involved ?
  20. i think we should take the view that if poland stops their young riders racing in gb then thats their loss,also if average british riders think they can succeed in poland they are being naive and misguided.British speedway can indeed prosper without "top stars" as an example british superbikes is a very successful and profitable competition even though everyone knows the top riders are in moto gp,moto2 or wsb,also british riders would know theyd have no chance of moving up until they were at least top 3 in bsb .If a truly talented british speedway rider emerges theres still a route to the top through the gp qualifiers,finish top6 in gps then you can demand the mega bucks from the poles.
  21. i would advice anyone that before signing an "excursive" contract they first find out what it is lol
  22. perhaps on the sunny south coast!!
  23. dont get too depressed jenga,the vaccines will work and a 3month total lockdown wouldnt get thro parliament
