No wonder lawson was poor turning up with bikes not clean. Not very professional

anlas in the uk, they are rubbish apparently but a certain chairman profits off them so riders are forced to use them, not just tyres area problem for new riders coming over but its the type of shale we use over here also, so much different to abroad, all little things like that add up, got to give bangs a few months at least, let him see all the tracks frst and then judge him on his 2nd visits

expect a good 50% of them attending the GP will be local aces fans, for example in March i paid out for GP Tickets, belle vue season ticket and BSN, approx £600 for me, but im lucky i can afford it Many have to pick and choose there meetings now after spending £100 plus pounds on the GP, them tickets are equivalent of 5 race days and will sacrifice the 5 matches for the GP, it happened last year. we had good crowd against sheffield and leicester but that was down to one being a rival and the other being bank holiday. most clubs will also take a big hit when BSN are in town this year, Belle Vue themselves play a part in this though, there is no where near enough effort put in to selling the sport to new people, no advertisement, no banners anywhere, we dont even have anything in the local paper about us

Good win and shown why belle vue will win at a canter this season. Very poor performance yet still ran out easy winners. Poor crowd yes but same last year. First 5 matches took a big hit because of the GP then soon as that finished the crowds improved massively. Expect same to happen again. Belle vue really need to get them expensive GP tickets on sale much sooner than a few weeks before the season. Wouldn't worry about bangs. Not easy settling into the uk. The tyres are not fit for purpose and it can take a rider a full season to learn how the tyre reacts etc.

this is half the problem with the sport, being portrayed as a family sport, we need to step away from that, especially now families have been priced out of it, sell it as what it is, an extreme sport

Result does not shock me. Results like this will happen all season. And as I've said previously elsewhere. This will be a good close season where everyone has a chance of a top 4 or even finishing top. Why is this??? Well because all teams look crap. So gonna be a good season

Dont worry. My pens been kept wet

can the speedway run without the dogs as it might have to. the GBGB (Greyhound board of great britain) have already removed Oxford from the latest calendar published on friday. so the dogs are 100% finised there i imagine. can the speedway find the 2 million debt?????

Bought it. Looking forward to see what changes Mayfield have made

Whats the weather like. Ill buy the stream i think

Also gave my facebook a page a good plug. Lets now get to 5k members. 200 to go

ill take it on the chin, no problem with that, win some you lose some so to speak

definitely worth watching now

I was lead to belive it was the speedway one that had disappeared

No

Sorry. I meant british speedway

Im hearing hes stepped away from the sport in the UK Did he do anything to improve it???? Will he be missed

Stuff been removed from the site including tractors and toilet equipment and other stuff. Doesn't look good to me. Hope it's not true

Won't see the week out sadly

Very quiet thread this considering whats happened the last week. Sadly I'm not hearing good news. Hope it's wrong

Because round one is league format. Only in 2 legged ties is tac sub not allowed

Yes. Beat the opposing rising star away from home...... job done

remember the last time dads army came to the party 👀

They shouldn't get a facility. But like in the past. Clubs always do

Yeah. Both gilkes and Bowes wont be ready. Also lawson had no bikes for Ipswich press and practice. Wonder if he will be sorted
