It won't happen .....

We need to wait and see. Our Supporters Club motto is for the fans by the fans, we do what we do to improve our fans' race day experience and hopefully this year, the close season, it's important to us to have input into the club, some things can't be done, the majority can as far as the fans go. Obviously we can't have input in some aspects but we can certainly put our and our fans' opinions forward.

Of course, the fans will want to know the score although does it really matter?

In your opinion Daniel, but you're always gonna take a negative stance, we'll see...

That's what it says....

No, nothing, maybe it will come out, the Ipswich fans will want to know for sure...

And Stars fans would NEVER want them to, can you imagine Chris Louis having any part of playing second fiddle to the Stars??

As Chairperson of the King's Lynn Stars Supporters Club, this idea coming from the BSPA Conference is quite an interesting one. Surely it will be a chance for the fans to bring all their ideas and gripes to the BSPA officially? We certainly hope to have some input and if so will be encouraging all Lynn fans to have a voice. Your thoughts? Particularly the young fans on here?

I dare say you would have as much chance as any other promoter has with your survival and growth proposals?

It was the promoters from years ago when the sport was making loads of money who maybe should have invested in the future, now the promoters are having trouble just keeping their heads afloat. That's why they make short term decisions, to keep in business for another year, I'm glad I'm not in their shoes, most of the fans on here think they have all the answers but need to put their money where their mouths are, plenty of clubs to take over now, do it and sort the sport out!!

Exactly, how many British councils would Ever invest in speedway...

That's not what the Workington riders and management said ........ and they won the treble

Have always disagreed with betting in speedway as it is so up for fixing, maybe someone is getting plenty of money out of it perhaps .......

Oh the Gerhard engine.....

Interesting that Poland are working on standardising engines, I guess British promoters know this?

Promoters can't win, what happened to the 'we want continuity' shout from the fans. If Belle Vue hadn't had terrible luck with injuries they may have won the league in 2018 imo!

Those nights rarely exist these days! Freezing cold October nights, nah haven't experienced one of those lately! And if you have, what a successful year your club has had yayyyy!

'Hot laps' were stopped by the SCB I believe because of insurance....

Yes, should've asked earlier! TY

For now yes and good luck to them, if only our townsfolk had the same pride in their speedway clubs! We can't dwell on what Poland are doing, our clubs have never been afforded the backing of councils and businesses like they have and are. Mind you they soon go downhill if something goes wrong, take Bydgoszcz, so the support is not set in stone! I believe the Stars get bigger crowds than the Linnets lol

What do you mean they are representative of their towns and cities? Do you mean that their 'councils' and local businesses pump loads of money into the clubs? Or that the towns people support/love/are proud of their clubs? If the latter, there are a number of locals at every UK club that feel the same but unfortunately not enough.... I was at the Norwich Speedway Dinner last weekend and I remain convinced that if a new club was formed in Norwich it would be a huge success, unfortunately it may never happen.

You're on then next year Steve!!

Go Workington!!

There's plenty of minibuses to hire in Norfolk, our problem is getting a driver, it's a big responsibility and very tiring. We hired coaches to Poole and Belle Vue for meetings at the end of the season but struggled to find enough fans to cover the very high cost, a few of us were lucky enough to have jobs where we were able to book off random days, quite a few were retired people. Both trips cost about £30-£40 a head... It's really difficult to organise speedway trips because of weather and the worry of not getting enough people to cover the costs, hard work!!
