louisec Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 I still enjoyed the trip to Cardiff though ,lets hope that BSI do take some notice of us, as without us fans they wouldn't be in business at all . <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Yes i enjoyed the day out, lets hope the BSI do listen, 4 heats and a final for the u15s next year would be nice. seeing the riders on parade and not stuck inside a limo would be good.

Liontamer Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 I was there with my son who used to be a regular Long Eaton supporter but hasn't been to speedway (apart from one meeting at Stoke last year, in 8 years), & a mate who has never been to a speedway meeting in his life, & their comments were as follows: Pre meeting atmosphere in Cardiff: Son: "Beer, fit birds, fantastic, your round dad." 1st time mate: "'kin 'ell, I've never seen anything like this in Cardiff before, (he lives in Wales), fantastic". Programme: Son: "Phwoorrr, look at the t*ts on that" (page 22). 1st time mate: "Phwoorrr, look at the t*ts on that" (page 22). Bjorn again: Son: "That blondes got a nice ar*e" 1st time mate: "Have you seen the ar*e on the blonde one?" Presentation: Son: "Bloody 'ell, can you imagine mum trying to park that bugger?" 1st time mate: "Who's the bird doing the introductions?" Racing: Son: "Fantastic. When are you going to take me up to Sheffield so I can have a go?" 1st time mate: "Fantastic, I could get in to this big time". Interval: Son: "Beer". 1st time mate: " Beer". Firework display: Son: "I'm a firestarter, twisted fire starter, aaaaaaaa uh uh uh,.... fancy a beer?" 1st time mate: "That was good". After meeting entertainment in Cardiff: Son: " Bloody 'ell, I've never seen so many fit birds, I'm going to bring Becki (his girlfriend) here for a weekend, fantastic................Jesus dad, look at the t*ts on that". 1st time mate: "That was fantastic, absolutely fantastic". Next morning: Son: "Bloody 'ell, what time is it? Hang on while I have a quick sh*t shave & shower then I'll be down for breakfast". 1st time mate: (Meeting up again the next morning) "I had a fantastic time last night, I never thought speedway was was as exciting as that. I've been to concerts before at the Millenium stadium, but last night was awesome, absolutely fantastic". So all in all a brilliant weekend. Sorry if I didn't say hello at the POW, but I'm a bit on the quite side. Roll on 2006. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Addy Posted June 17, 2005 Report Share Posted June 17, 2005 Hey LT - like father like son ... Sorry if I didn't say hello at the POW, but I'm a bit on the quite side. Roll on 2006.

tone deaf Posted June 20, 2005 Report Share Posted June 20, 2005 Annoyed me that the presenter kept referring to the riders as "drivers"... Avoided the rush to get in when the gates opened so missed the U15s. Thought that Abba songs would have got the crowd going more than they did, so a bit disappointed with Bjorn Again. Amarillo is a song just perfect for air horns! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mylor Posted July 3, 2005 Report Share Posted July 3, 2005 My Programme was free!! As someone's already said, mine cost me £7 as part of my ticket..............but what really bugged me was that I paid for Mrs Mylor's ticket too. Now what am I supposed to do with 2 programmes? I may be buying 3 tickets next year..............PLEASE BSI, drop this idea before I go broke and disappear under a pile of glossies!!

Nevs Posted July 5, 2005 Report Share Posted July 5, 2005 (edited) I may be buying 3 tickets next year..............PLEASE BSI, drop this idea before I go broke and disappear under a pile of glossies!! <{POST_SNAPBACK}> Dont agree-I had the cheapest ticket and was the same price as last year?(unsure) maybe £2 more at the most and didnt have to shell out an extra £7 for the programme! Great Idea or to save rain forests drop the price by a fiver and charge a fiver for a programme. I personally thought it was a great gesture and possibly contributed to the increased crowd. No one wants to pay £7 for a programme so if it can be absorbed into the ticket price then great-in reality was a fiver less than same thing last year or 10 for a couple-Possible solution would be to offer a pair of tickets with one programme for next year.

I got a child ticket as I didn't need a programme (and it was part of a family ticket) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
