Odds On

just wondering if machine examiners still exist within the sport?...the sport has always had tales surrounding it regarding cheating going on, one rumour doing the rounds is frozen methanol being used.

it would appear a bad night for the Foxes.

ahh well all is well in the world of British speedway then....how on earth do you think last nights entertainment will attract or appeal to anybody watching/going for the first time?.....the average age at last nights meeting must of been over 50, so please don't come back with Poole are doing something right.

and people wonder why speedway is on its arse in this country....if anybody thinks last night was a good advert for the sport in any shape or form then up the medication.

what a complete embarrassment last night was, Poole took track prep and maintenance to a whole new level, seen some rubbish shows in and around speedway over the years but that was an all time low.

it certainly comes across as the old pals club at times. Huge love affair with Stewart Dickson which at times comes across as cringey.

i think the choice of meetings, quality of racing and the presentation in general is shall we say average. Any increase in price then i would seriously fall on the side of not renewing with BSN.

Must admit i have been a bit disappointed with BSN this season, might just be me but feel there is no regular spacing between meetings, its literally all or nothing it feels. No doubt the price will go up next season and that would be the final nail for me and BSN.

that would be the difference between the owners making a loss to a bigger loss!

Other sports do it so is it time speedway introduced it? more and more sports are micing up referee's so that they can announce how they made a decision. Last night in the Sheffield/Kings Lynn meeting the referee made a decision that baffled just about everyone, to add credence to the decision it would of been interesting to see how they came to it,

Thought it was a decent advert for the sport, everyone played there part, Tatum, Allen, Emma, the riders....track was okay considering the weather we have had. Finished on time which will not of gone unnoticed by ITV. Racing wasn't to the high standard of Belle Vue but do you know what?!...I thought everything considered the sport portrayed itself very well. Fingers crossed ITV want a bit more of the sport, now wouldn't it be great if they covered part of the play offs.

People having a pop at Belle Vue's team building...well guess what your club/team manager could of done exactly the same!

Thought the track staff did a great job, we all knew that with the current weather it would be dusty and not great racing but thought they did well....now the negative side that could of been avoided, nigh on two hours for 15-20 minutes of action, simply not good enough, more of a "dig" at the referee and officials. Absolutely unsatisfactory and no need for that length of time to run a meeting, there were no major hold ups in terms of re-runs or timely crashes etc.

The usual he says she says they says!...nothing in concrete, those who think they know should do what is right for the sport and not just post about it on a forum.
