  1. The guys involved with Coventry and particularly Jeff Davies have poured huge amounts of time into getting speedway back, and have already confirmed members of the consortium. You are correct that Brandon will need a lot of money to make it usable, but money won't be an issue with the individuals they have got on board - they're issue is getting the site out of the developers hands, but I think their efforts deserve applauding and our support, not constant mocking.
  2. You are Clarke Osborne. Where do i claim my £5 please......
  3. The only promoter I can recall ever publishing attendance figures was Tony Mole when he was at Long Eaton in tbe 1990s, but that didn't last long because the other promoters told him to stop doing it.
  4. Nothing will beat Jimmy Nilsen guesting for both Wolves and Cradley across two legs of the KO Cup in 1989!
  5. You generally find the only time speedway gets touched by the main stream sports media is when riders square up to each other. To me, there's no issue with it. Nobody gets hurt, a couple of riders full of adrenaline let of a bit of steam, and the sport gets some publicity.
  6. That's because British Speedway has become so woke and doesn't want anything controversial because "we don't want to see that".
  7. I remember several years ago Ole Olsen saying something along the lines of "British Speedway should shut down for a year and have a good long think about its product". Well the perfect opportunity landed in its lap 5 years ago with the Speedway-less year of 2020. A perfect opportunity to look at itself and have a proper reset. Instead, it just sat on its hands and waited for the green light, then picked up where it left off in 2019.
  8. How on earth has Christine Turnbull managed to be given a grand prix to referee? She repeatedly makes poor decisions and there we have another one.
  9. I doubt many would agree that Kelly Moran was "unlikeable", but each to their own i guess.
  10. One of the great "what ifs" for me is Darcy Ward. Had a stayed fit and got his head right, he would've been a big danger to Zmarzlik in my opinion.
  11. Nice battle between Zmarzlik and Lindgren by the looks of it. Shame we couldn't see it thanks to the damn drone again
