Ipswich v Belle Vue POSF Leg 2
IainB replied to blue witch's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I thought so too, especially with tractors, I know the flashing light wasn't working on Ippo's tractor a few weeks ago, I saw The Weasel in the pits so he'll probably be issuing fines and points deductions tomorrow -

Why is there so much bloody stuff on the centre green at foxhole? There's tractors, a water cart, some kind of stage, barriers, bushes, flag poles, banners, people... can't see anything with the low camera angles! -
I'm not sure who the SCB are answerable to? The ACU? Some shocking decisions and non decisions have been made over the last few seasons.

Ipswich v Belle Vue POSF Leg 2

Not with Mr Morris present -
SCB are basically saying we messed up, so we're going to punish Kent! Unbelievable!
-
There's a few more than 6, personally I still enjoy the KO Cup due to the sudden death nature of the competition, it's still recovering after the authorities bizarrely scrapped it for a few seasons. But generally I get your point, this season has been particularly bad competitiveness wise with the top 4 being so clearly better than the bottom 3
-
100% spot on, most people seem to have missed this, the SCB are basically admitting they messed up (not for the first time).
-
It's a shame that in the 10 years I've been going to the NSS I'm still unable to get around to the other side of the stadium for a nose around, I've never seen it... only from the South stand.
-
Leicester are pretty good for merch wearing I've only ever seen it open once in all my visits to Belle Vue, admittedly I only turn up just before start time and leave immediately afterwards but during the meeting and many interval breaks I've never seen it open
-
Yeah, that's the south stand... hey ho, just shows how different people notice different things 🤷♂️
-
North or South stand?
-
I'd disagree with that actually, last time I was up there, in the south stand, I actually did notice how many team shirts were being worn by the fans... maybe it's different in the posh seats in the main stand
-
Even the one on the back straight that I have only ever seen open once on my many visits to the NSS?
-
To be fair generally the effort levels of the riders does seem to go up a notch during the play offs in the UK, whether that's perceived by the fans (me) or is actually the case I don't know, but I'd like to think it is the former. As for some clubs increasing the admission prices, I know King's Lynn have done it in the past but most clubs don't... I don't call them the pay offs for no reason though.
-
What about when there's clearly no demand? Put the prices up 😂
-
I don't think the ever did, wasn't it down to Martin Hunter and Ben Duffil approaching them with the idea instead of the other way around?
-
I've known some clubs do it for the final but not the semi! Maybe Belle Vue assumed it was going to be their last match of the season 🤔

Belle Vue -V- Ipswich POSF leg 1

Mark Lemon does seem a strange appointment to be CEO of Belle Vue Speedway, I'm not sure what his qualifications are or business experience is? -
With 3 guests and R/R it was hardly a Birmingham team, so I'm not sure it's really worth bickering about 🤷♂️
