Good luck with the council

I would guess before the 2nd leg

I was beginning to think maybe I was reading too much into the comments I have seen when I was reading you reply until I got to the end and you then start having a pop at me. You lot just can't help yourselves can you.

I've seen some of the abuse the owner of the site has been receiving on social media from "speedway fans". From an outsiders point of view it doesn't portray those fans in a very positive light and the local council would be perfectly entitled to say "on your bike" (no pun intended). I've looked at this from both sides. You can't force the stadium owner to reinstate the speedway if it won't make them any money just because some nostalgic fanatics still long for the good old days of Uncle Len. I actually thing an extension of the go-karting facilities or all-weather football pitches will bring far more benefits for the community and local economy than an old niche sport will ever do.

Well at least you'll see a different 7 riders at the next meeting rather than the same away 7 you saw the other week in a Kent race jacket now wearing a Cradley one.

Typical snowflake response. But if you can't offer any "nasty" constructive feedback then how can you improve on anything? My point is that I have been looking at these NORA meeting line ups for a while and it just seems to be the same non-contracted riders in every meeting. One week it will be a Rye House race jacket, the next it will be a Cradley. If you want to pay to watch that then fine that's your choice.

Exactly. They just want to do their job and get out of there. And lets look at it from their point of view, If you were doing some work to your car would you want a bunch of wulfsport jacket wearing mongs standing around you staring at something most know f*** all about? I remember some promotions brought in the interactive track walk where they could follow the riders around. Why? I'd say most don't really care or know about what the riders are looking for but hey ho! Nigel and Janet get to feel important because they walked the track with the riders.

Paddy Power, what are the odds on Tai Woffinden making a comeback before the years out?

One forum on the internet is enough. Keep all the whinging muppets in one place, don't spread them out

£15 to see the same bunch of riders you will see in the same style of meetings you'll see at Iwade and IOW. Nah you're ok thanks. If I want to watch repeats I'll stick to BBC2

I'll be honest with you, the riders don't really care for it. Sure you'll get a couple who will smile for selfies and go through the motions but only because the promoters have told them to. In fact most promotors see it as an inconvenience but see it as a necessity to keep what paying punters they have happy. And don't even get started of the snarling pit marshals. You lowly creatures of annoyance are on his sacred patch. This is his kingdom and if you outstay your welcome he will be snapping at your heels like an angry jack russell.

The same names for most NORA meetings. From what I have observed it's mostly the same core of riders wearing a different race jacket depending on the meeting. But if that keeps the wulfsport jacket brigade happy and they are happy to pay the admission to see it then so be it. I would imagine though that these would be the same band that complain about riders doubling up in the main leagues.

And maybe she has a very valid point.

1. "f*** me! This is boring" - Newcomer after only 3 heats and 1 hour into the meeting. 2. "We're not getting value for money" - Disgruntled regular who leaves after heat 14 even though there is a junior second half as well and then has a whinge about promoters not doing enough for youngster on the forum when they get home. 3. "It's all fixed for Poole to win everything" - Everyone else apart from Poole Fans 4. "Come on' Bomber!" - Most speedway fans cheering on a popular British rider as he's usually racing for their team. 5. "Hit Him" - most speedway fans whenever any riders/officials have handbags next to the pit gate. Doesn't matter who they are (hey they could be team mates for all we care) but someone's having a scrap!!

No longer good enough and probably no longer getting the attention he craves. His cheerleaders on here will be heartbroken.
