I’ve always paid my way but my reward is a rip off from every station. Finally forced to the firestick, no regrets. It’s their fault so many resort to this. The more that turn to this option - I hope they will realise why. My subscription went up over 200%. I’ve been a loyal customer since day 1. Increase after increase - I’m out. From what I’ve read about Eurosport / Discovery Speedway this season, many more will do the same. Get a stick and f*** em.

First time abroad
Hodgy replied to Preston Comet's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
As long as you don’t expect much racing action (it’s always much better when you’re there, as per Cardiff) you will still have a great time. Enjoy 👍 -
First time abroad
Hodgy replied to Preston Comet's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Always have to be very vigilant wherever you go but Prague is certainly not top. Barcelona, Las Ramblas, Paris are the top two. As said, just be careful wherever you go. Wallet front pocket, rucksack face the front on route, look before you take pics on your phone. Apart from that enjoy. It’s the same in London. -
It was a great annual brothers weekend. Somerset pairs followed by Cardiff GP (also Welsh open at Newport on Sunday). It was great walking through Cardiff and all was Speedway. Great times.
-
Due to the capacity limit I would confidently expect both days to be sold out. Need to hit those hotels before they catch on. As Cardiff did after the first few years. One of the major reasons so many stopped going.

The Harris moment will live forever as one of my best watching live Speedway. -
Riders with unique styles/characteristics.

2006 Under 21 World Champ. Looked like he was going places. Had a few good meetings for Panthers. Didn’t last long. -

Karol Zabik? -
That’s definitely the team to beat. Injury free they will win at a canter. As they ‘might’ have done last season.
-
For sure Gambo. The kids will be here very soon 😉. Have a great weekend 👍
-
A change in format / layout is a norm we eventually get familiar with. Good intention but badge / newbie rewards feels somewhat childish.

We’ve seen riders have career impacting injuries, wrong place, wrong time or dangerous opponent. It can’t be coincidence certain riders often end up on the sidelines virtually every season.
-
Exactly, out of control not knowing the outcome of the move. That equates to very dangerous. That’s not how it should be done.

It’s a fair enough thread open for discussion but as per usual ends up personal. Usually due to others forced preference. I remember the Ben & Ronnie feud well, in person. It did get too personal which escalated the altercation. I attended all of these meetings. Of course I was on Ronnie’s side as a biased Peterborough supporter, fully understand the opposition view. So here goes my opinion to the thread question, which will open up the floodgates again. Apart from the Boyce punch that seemed to calm Tomasz down I have to say NP is the most dangerous rider I’ve seen. Some of the moves he made were deliberately dangerous.

One post and received more badges than when I was a Cub Scout 😆

C’mon Mods, why the need for this rank progress? It’s not a competition on how many times people post. I rarely do now as sensible posts can often lead to insulting confrontation by the usual suspects. You can view the sign ins and reads. You’re just opening it up to Trackprats. There are many good posters on this forum, focus on weeding out the planks.

Speedway On Tv And The Internet In 2024
Hodgy replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Thanks people for the advice. Tried it again tonight and it is now all good. Even better than I expected. Can watch last night(s) meetings and fast forward. -
Speedway On Tv And The Internet In 2024
Hodgy replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Thanks. I have Sky Q and could get Discovery Premium last year. I tried last night, logged in but it kept stating I’m not eligible for this channel. As you say seems like an hour on the phone to Sky. Thanks again. -

Speedway On Tv And The Internet In 2024
Hodgy replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I’ve tried this tonight and it still kept stating I am not eligible. Previously was always available with Sky Sports package. Disgraceful that they can’t put a World Team Championship on Eurosport. To which I can record and watch when I’m free. I have no interest in The Tiddlywinks and Tractor pulling. I will be cancelling my Sky package as the main reason was for the Speedway. Eurosport has always been so unreliable, changing live World Final events to Discovery is goodbye Sky, save myself £££ per month. Understand it’s not Sky’s call but it’s they I pay. -
Warsaw GP Saturday 11th May 2024
Hodgy replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Eurosport absolutely pish poor. Hate the friggin channel. Speedway always set to serial link but you can never trust it. As I was out tonight I checked my phone and what a surprise the serial link wasn’t set to record. Therefore set to record again and also, as always the programme after for meetings overrunning. Get home 11pm, avoided result (not too difficult with Speedway). Recorded 53 mins of nothing. Eurosport = F’ing useless. -
Bloody hell!!! How the hell does this creature have the nerve to start commenting after such disgusting acts, which appear repeated after release. Despite trying to convince he was so regretful after the first sentence. Really goes to show how dangerous social media can be.

Wasn’t supposed to be. Just commenting on what I thought was a contradicting post. Not the end of the World. Thank you, he’s a babe magnet. Lol..
