Christ that takes ya back, oh that race with Parks, Louis and Rickardsson, they didn't do it justice at all, it was one of THE best races ever at Lynn! The whole production was downbeat, the music, everything, rain, that didn't do the sport any good at all! Our sport has always 'lived for today', the early promoters put meetings on in greyhound stadiums etc, riders loved racing their bikes, they loved the money to be made even more and the punters turned up in their droves, easy money all round. Everything was hunky dory. Then the rot set in, they weren't making such huge amounts of money, they had offers on land if they did own stadiums, modern times were coming. If they'd set our sport in stone like football is perhaps we wouldn't be down to a handful of stadiums but who knows? Yeah the SKY money was good but absolutely nothing like football millions, could the BSPA bought all the stadiums left with that money? What should they have done with it which would've lasted till now?

Keep up, duraglit of course!

He's exactly what it says on the tin .....

He'll shine .....

Brasso

Shouldn't be a fixture clash!

Waiting for you to win the Championship treble ...... twice

Oh how you paid the ref off you mean!

We'll just hope you'll have to eat your words m8

Sometimes he likes Wolves, sometimes he doesn't lol

I doubt anyone will have a problem with Rowe being a r/s cos that's what he would've been last year ..... he particularly likes Lynn too arghhhh

There's hope that more different riders might race here in 2023. It's easy to be an armchair promoter ........

Our clubs need to get announcing before this happens again!!!!

Give commentary a go, would help with atmosphere imo ....

Who's calculated how many riders we have in the UK who would be of high enough standard to be in one big league, how many riders could each team have? 4? 5?

Maybe the bonds need to be higher? I don't know if they are really strict about the bonds?

Erm I'd have thought that was down to the riders who had just lost their jobs surely??

You're there forever now whilst we race Mondays and Thursdays .... Poole people play in their tiddlywink league those nights!

Oh god don't say that ...

British speedway and it's clubs are in such precarious positions that it's impossible to have long term plans, promoters have to plan season to season? Of course they'd all love to have long term, big TV deals, long term, big money sponsorship deals etc etc but they don't exist for them?

Don't think so!!!!

I'm more worried about the ref at Poole m8!

Oh it'll be bumpy ok, Glasgow boys will know where the bumps are, they know where the best passing places are, just hope the ref takes the correct glasses and refuses to take a bribe

Good job for Poole yeah!

Someone suggested on here that we have an individual championship involving all the top men representing one of their teams (for some) from the Premiership and Championship, I like this idea if it could be sold to sponsors, it would capture the imagination of the fans I'm sure. I don't suppose there would be enough dates to hold it at every club? I hope GBSpeedwayTeam puts on a series of Test Matches in 2022, would 100% travel to those! Roll on 2022 ......
