oldtimer Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 After continually ignoring speedway, BBC Points West local news had on Monday a brief report from Swindon in their 6-30pm news and pictures and a report on the Robins victory in their late news. Also had Rosco and Nick Morris in the studio with the Elite League trophy on Tuesday evening. The question is will they also give Somerset publicity when we win the League Cup on Thursday and the Premier League on Sunday. I have e-mailed them, perhaps others can do the same.

Shadders Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 (edited) WHEN you win? Big headed twit... Hope they lose em both, just to p*ss off their promoter who *seemed to* condones violence by Rebels fans towards away supporters and bullying by her stewards. I emailed he to point out these facts, but got a ridiculous email in return basically telling me to hunt out my would be assailant and take it out on him!

Brooksy Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 WHEN you win? Big headed twit... With an avatar like that, I'd expect better from you? Hope they lose em both, just to piss off their promoter who condones violence by Rebels fans towards away supporters and bullying by her stewards. 'Condones violence and bullying'??? That's a big accusation to make on a public forum. Hope you've got a good lawyer! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JCookie Posted October 24, 2012 Report Share Posted October 24, 2012 If they had Man Utd on the local news after winning the league would you then expect the same treatment for Aldershot? No. Small time club. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No. Small time club. This is slightly different, Swindon and Somerset are both in the Points West news area, in fact Somerset nearer to Bristol where studio is located.

Statman Posted October 26, 2012 Report Share Posted October 26, 2012 Much to my surprise, Rebels got a mention tonight on Points West re tonight and Fridays match plus pictures from Oak Tree Arena I have been in regular contact with people from Sports Dept at BBC Bristol about Rebels over past week or so, and as a result hopefully the Points West cameras will be at the Oaktree Arena tonight to do a live 'feed' from pits as part of their sports desk during the local news bulletin from 6.30pm....I'm just waiting for a call back from Sports Unit to confirm that they are coming down. Also Kyle Newman will be interviewed live on BBC Radio Bristol's Saturday Sports Show at about 1pm tomorrow afternoon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

EC Rides Again Posted October 30, 2012 Report Share Posted October 30, 2012 Look North reporter was filming in with the Scunthorpe fans at the end of the last heat ! There should be a report in the 6.30 bulletin tonight! Probalby a bit "Scunthorpe orientated" to be on Points West! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
