  1. I agree but it would be nice if they made that clear in the statement.
  2. If they couldn't make it pay why not let someone else have a go? I can only think they have already agreed to sell the land.
  3. I guess someone has made them a tasty offer for the land.
  4. I take it a developer has already bought the land.
  5. The problem with the track is keeping the water in it, we have loads of rain recently and yet its still going dusty quickly. More dirt might help.
  6. I predict an easy Scunthorpe win, Bjarne and Crump will score a load but the others look weak. The real wake up call will come the following week when we get smashed by Leicester.
  7. I think Plymouth are going to struggle, looks to me as if they have got 5 weak reserves.
  8. So British speedway returns to terrestrial tv on 11pm tuesday, this is excellent news if you ask me.
  9. 1.Leicester 2. Poole 3.Eastbourne 4.Redcar 5.Glasgow 6.Birmingham 7.Edinburgh 8. Berwick 9. Kent 10. Scunthorpe 11. Plymouth 12. Newcastle
  10. I am not sure about this statement, the rumours Allen was coming back and wanted more money started well before we signed Josh Macdonald.
  11. Anyone know if they plan to stage any Individual/ pairs/ fours meetings this year?
  12. I guess we will see next year.
  13. I didn't say they could make it pay I said they could make it work. Its not unusual for a promoter to bankroll a team, that's not to say it couldn't make money that would depend on the rental cost. The rental cost would depend on how much competition there is from other speedway promoters, I think the rumoured cost of rent is just the owners seeing if anyone will bite. Of course there will be a minimum amount of rent the owners will accept i.e enough to cover basic expenses caused by the speedway.
  14. I didn't say the speedway promoter can get a right bargain but the owners need the rental money and they will just rent to the speedway promoter who will pay the most.
  15. The owners are desperate to make odsal pay they will want the best rental price they can get from the speedway, even with weekly crowds of 500 a promoter could come to deal and make this work.
  16. How do we know Osdal will be a racers track? It never used to be a racers track.
  17. 11 gps, Prague, Wroclaw, Gorzow and Torun double headers, vojens, malilla and russia.
  18. disagree, it was cynical. Tungate got form, he got a 2 week ban for this nasty bit of work.
