The White Knight Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 Eeer.. nope? You will have to enlighten me. 'I'm sorry I haven't a Clue' is a Radio 4 Programme, a Comedy Show with Jack Dee. http://www.isihac.net/index.php I was attempting to be humerous.

PHILIPRISING Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 NOT too much live sport for Sky this summer so Wednesday seems to suit. Seems there was an omission at Birmingham on Wednesday and their coverage was all the better for it! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A ORLOV Posted July 4, 2013 Report Share Posted July 4, 2013 They have shown meetings on various nights this year, but as mentioned a lot of wednesdays lately. Scheduled meetings shown at the moment Wed July 10th Poole Wolves Mon July 29th Eastbourne Birmingham No doubt other meetings will be shown this month and they could be any day. Wednesday is fine by me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems there was an omission at Birmingham on Wednesday and their coverage was all the better for it! It is Wednesday because Rugby League has the live sport slot on a Monday. You get the feeling SKY are just honouring some sort of commitment to the sport before they can wash their hands of it come September Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You get the feeling SKY are just honouring some sort of commitment to the sport before they can wash their hands of it come September Yes, that's exactly what it makes you think. When TV companies move any of their programmes around the schedules and break continuity it is usually a bad sign. It usually signals to those involved that they won't be commissioning a new series when this run is finished. Just like tracks themselves. It is so difficult to build audience without the continuity of racenights. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 WOULDN'T read too much into use of Wednesdays ... they are basically going to Wednesday night tracks away. And with so little live sport available keeping speedway away from Rugby League on Mondays makes sense. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why were they looking for something else to show on a Monday in the first place, almost forcing the RL to give them a live monday match.

PHILIPRISING Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 BECAUSE they have four channels, no soccer right now, little else other than some cricket which doesn't always carry through to a Monday. Moving some RL matches to a Monday, as they do with soccer, seems logical. The decision about speedway will be taken at the highest level within Sky and right now the BSPA would probably not be able to tell them what is on the table for 2014 anyway.

Or - do we read in to it that a massive reorganisation will take place over the Winter with a possible combining of Leagues, Regionalisation etc? IF this is so - then I would have thought that the BSPA would have had the foresight to be planning NOW. The Winter may be too late for SKY and their Schedules.

SGP Posted July 5, 2013 Report Share Posted July 5, 2013 Was good to see the hovercam or whatever its called at Perry Barr last night, looks a bit wierd but you get some great shots of the action. Would love to control the thing( presume its remote controlled), would be like having one of them remote controlled helicopters but on a larger scale. Boys toy!!

PHILIPRISING Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 SO, Sophie Blake back on Sky, reporting from Birmingham tonight. First time she and Charlie Webster have been in opposite corners as it were. Thought Sky's coverage last week with Chris Louis handling all the pit interviews was much improved. Asks the right questions and knows what he is talking about unlike his colleague. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Backless Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 It's a bit unfair having both Sophie & Charlie on the same programme. How can Charlie compete with someone who can construct a grammatically correct sentence? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrB Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Sophie back and Sam out! Thank you Sky ;-) 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheReturn Posted July 10, 2013 Report Share Posted July 10, 2013 Sophie back and Sam out! Thank you Sky ;-) The whole lot other than Kelvin need changing. Chris Louis as long been a Poole suck up when doing interviews, but he bottled it tonight by not asking Ward if he stayed down on purpose. A professional journalist would have asked the question, look at the Tour journalists at Cav yesterday for an example. You then have Pearson again plugging the Speedway Star, which must be against some Ofcom broadcasting rules. For the 1000th time this season he also bangs on about 'how often do you see a different result in a replay'. With the exception of Kelvin and Sophie, the Sky Sports team are repetitive, mundane, boring and poor. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
