  1. On no. Sorry to hear that, please accept my condolences😉
  2. But how is any of that gonna get the next generation of followers through the gates? Most speedway fans are nearer to death than not, it's all about getting new younger people to watch. In my opinion that should be upper most in any revamps. the whole evening needs to change to attract new people and to get them going back.
  3. One thing I can guarantee, is what ever ideas anyone comes up with, someone will always have a reason why it won't work.
  4. I say the same about the age thing. Without the next generation the sport is dead anyway. That's the first thing that needs addressing. Maybe promotions on drinks my help. Just look at the darts . plenty of jugs of beer flowing. Maybe put on a free bus from the town? Maybe make it more like the darts. So it's more than one meeting at a venue, maybe a weekend. 2 meetings per day. Then a couple of weeks later the same again it a different venue. And so on.
  5. Everyone knows he isn't racing anywhere near to what he is capable.
  6. Would you call any of the clubs professional? ?? looks very amateurish from what I see or read.
  7. They probably couldn't afford turning up for all the rain offs. So decided to show other things. Wasn't it in the original agreement that clubs got covers for the tracks? Whatever the reason, speedway is only heading one way, and it's not up.
  8. Personally I don't think it's ever been so bad. Sky didn't even want it anymore. I didn't even bother going on Thursday, and that's gonna happen more and more. Just a quick look around the crowd will show you how long speedway has left. I would say about 75 percent of an already small crowd is over 60 years of age. So where is the future of speedway?
  9. Certainly had more than his share of injurys the last few years.
  10. The panthers should start flying up towards the top end of the table now. On paper the best team by far.
  11. He is 36 now, and as you have all witnessed before, riders start slowing down, unless your name is greg Hancock.
  12. Don't forget he is at that stage of his career when its gradually going down hill.
  13. So last week we had one race with passing and this week 2 races with passing? So the track and racing was twice as good. Maybe next week with a couple more of the track tweaks we can get 3 heats with passing.
  14. I'm a little bit worried, as I didn't miss it one little bit mmmmm🤔
  15. From the gate seemed to used on updates a lot tonight. Was it really grippy? Really slick? Lots of dirt? No dirt? Chris has said there have been tweaks to the track, did it work? Honestly please Something obviously clicked heat 8 onwards
  16. He doesn't post on ipswich as much as he does on poole threads. And starman never posts on ipswich threads unless gavan has
  17. Why not? Hasn't exactly been at his best so far.Some how ipswich manage to bring the worst out of our riders.
  18. Same in Gosfield I know one thing for certain, I won't be staying in and washing my hair😉🤓🤓
  19. I may make another one and not go after all. Mmmmm🤔 maybe like auty I could retire for a couple of weeks
  20. Actually the more I think about it, it's this one is the one not to miss. On paper it should be good. So I think I may just bite the bullet this week and see what's on offer
