  1. While I agree that people should go along and continue to watch and enjoy their Speedway as I am and not just throw the towel in (reading some of the comments on the Peterborough thread is indeed quite bizarre), you must see that we can not continue as we are currently going and letting the "relevant" people, who have got us into this situation, get us out of it is equally bizarre. I would say the current situation is more than concerning... it's alarming! My enthusiasm is still there and I'll be travelling the country watching Speedway as I always have done for the last 45 odd years... you can only push clubs and merge leagues until a point where it become unsustainable... and we're not far away from that.
  2. Which is why you should do it long before it gets to that stage.
  3. and we must not upset the riders... to hell with the fans
  4. Richie Worrall was and all those fans he saw rubbing dust out of their eyes
  5. Depends if he's after drugs or drinking himself into a coma!
  6. Was there any watering of the track during the meeting?
  7. Richie Worrall should be given his own show on BSN! Richie gives it to you straight!
  8. Somebody should tell those Plymouth fans to lower their flags to half mast
  9. There's a name I've not seen for a few years... Blane Scroggings! Not the Coventry one surely?
  10. What a terrible performance from the Glads... can we just put Sweet Caroline on now and then I can switch off!
  11. Kyle Newman having a p1ss behind the cabin in the pits... Live only on BSN!
  12. Come on the Glads! What time is Sweet Caroline on?
  13. A year is no where near long enough even if the promoters have the best intentions of finding a new site... Coventry & Peterborough were give several years notice that they were going to be evicted and didn't come up with any alternatives to ensure no break in participation. Cradley never found anywhere in the same area. From memory, I think there has only been Belle Vue that continued from one season to another in different venues. As I've said elsewhere you can only hope that this is some kind of public negotiating exercise by the landlords as to offer a 4 year lease and then not sign it when it's returned begs a lot of questions as to what their motives are
  14. You have to wonder whether the Wolves situation is just a public negotiating exercise... as you don't offer your tenants a 4 year agreement and then not sign it when it's returned, can't help but think there's something else going on there, I could be wrong of course
  15. He could have resigned and let somebody who has a plan to save and revive the sport have a go? Just an idea
  16. For those of you that don't follow R/R on Twitter (and you're missing a treat if you don't) you may not have seen this... surely some kind of April Fool, isn't it? Surely? https://www.plymouthherald.co.uk/sport/other-sport/plymouth-gladiators-hope-finally-start-8360718
  17. I'd say healthy without being spectacular. Not as much as the height of last summer, but we had a winning team then
  18. The track hasn't been as conducive to passing so far this season as it was last... bring back those bumps!
