The Third Man

Couldnt agree more, how come we had priority on Saturday and Rye had last night? also what about Branford, he has ridden in two away matches and missed his teams two home matches, how much has this cost him?

Didnt have a problem with a race card at Sheffield before the new promotion took over. it did what you wanted it to do, so maybe an option of either might work and might even make some money

last seasons match in the league cup against Newcastle was one of the best matches anywhere last season, on the Sheffield track which was the same as it was for the rest of the season its not the shape it is how it is prepared, Sheffield has the potential to be one of if not the best racing track in the country, if it is prepared correctly, sadly that is rare these days what other sport in the country does anything like this? it would mean a track with a 1000 supporters would get the same share as a track with 500 supporters, with varying running costs. Scunthorpe pay no rent and keep all food / drink and parking revenue Sheffield pay rent and keep nothing for the parking or the food / drink outlets there is not a level playing field unfortunately

And although it was free on Thursday at Sheffield, some people seemed to think even that was not good value for money

Well Sheffield was free this week and I found a reason not to go, think the team looks good so could be a good season results wise, but the majority said that the track was the same as last year. if that stays the same I am not going to watch 15 processions just because we will do well, so I will see what happens before I commit to paying out £50 just to have a chat and moan about the lack of racing

if i remember that was on the first bend, so from a standing start to there

But for some reason we used the tigers head for at least some away matches if my memory serves me correctly

Yes on current tracks Ricky Ashworth is the fastest man in speedway, long may he remain so.

Very nice of the promotion to offer free admission to the first match celebrating my 50th season watching speedway Thank You PS very good gesture

Would have had Garrity back at Sheffield in a flash, most of the times worth the entrance fee on his own

not saying they wont, but if we win what have we beaten, its going to be advertised as a match against a PL team when it isnt

I think the track was where the athletics stadium / go cart track now are. easily see on google earth

i think Bob Paulson rode there a few times as well I think the track was where the athletics stadium / go cart track now are. easily see on google earth

so we have a challenge match against another championship team, would have hoped we could pit our team against a premership team to see how strong we are

Hopefully Josh G for us and a guest to his average for Somerset, lets see how we can go against a full team

Thanks

i agree, but surely the meeting needs to be held in a central location to get as many supporters there as possible, holding it in Glasgow, not a dig at Glasgow by the way, will not maximise the support is there anyway you can make a donation on line for the supporters who wont be able to attend?

Just said the same in the Leicester thread, please make it happen, get him away from here

Yes please, keep him away from Sheffield

No thanks, we have an excellent team for the league we are in, never know might get promoted at the end of the season

So its three teams in isolation this year. next year lets say two more teams in isolation and so on, how long before these isolated problems mean there is no speedway. These problems are a problem for the whole of speedway, not just for the three teams

Waiting for Belle Vue?

and they will changed as soon as possible, usually when people have already booked their away trip

Merry Chrismas from the more famous tigers as well

Even if that was true it would be irrelevant, you cant hold up a meeting because someone is having bike problems, unless after a crash,
