StevePark Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 I thought admission was £15 at the gate and £14 in advance. If you are buying a season ticket then you are buying in advance. Hence the £14 quoted That was the season just gone. Suggest you click the link provided by DiamondsRock and see, for 2014, it'll be £16 at the gate and £15 in advance online (per match). Guaranteed is 3 League Cup, 14 League matches (16 if Peterborough come in late), and 1 KOC. I presume at least 1 pre-season challenge and possibly 1 Tyne/Tees and Tyne/Tweed Cup each. So 21 matches (plus the Northern 4TT Darryl mentions in the 'Star' this week). So, lets say 22 matches @£15 (if you are able to book online) = £330. Then you just have to hope they progress in the KOC or the LC or reach the Play-offs for the extra matches. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The White Knight Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Everything else is going up in Price - so why not Speedway? At least it hasn't gone up as much as my Electricity and Gas Bill. :mad: Now THAT is a RIP OFF!!! Prices at the Gate seem fair enough to me. I know some will say that I am a Pensioner, and that I will benefit as a Concession, that would be true - but - I too paid full price until I qualified. It could have gone up more - so I for one - am happy. WELL DONE!! to the Promotion for keeping the Prices increase down as low as they reasonably could. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DiamondsRock Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 WELL DONE!! to the Promotion for keeping the Prices increase down as low as they reasonably could. Yeah, but they're still pretty high. Adult, Program and Car Park -> £18.50 if you buy them online, or £19.50 on the day. That's about 4 trips to the cinema on a cheap day, 13 hours of Snooker table time (with a friend), or 8 pints of freshly brewed real ale in my local pub... Can see why I didn't attend any matches last season now! lol That, and the playoffs which give everyone a season of meaningless matches...

Totally agree with the highlighted bit. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chewbacca Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 I'll be there every week I can. I miss too many due to work to get a season ticket but I do pay for the car park every week and buy stuff in the club shop. I can't afford to sponsor the Diamonds but I don't mind paying full whack for stuff if I think it is going towards keeping the club going. I've had too many speedway-less years at Brough Park to take it for granted. I'm looking forward to March already. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The White Knight Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 does that mean you've made ye mind up then ? :-) If I do, which to be honest is looking likely, I'll just have to bite my tongue when the 'Black and White' Hat comes out. Trouble is - I am missing the Speedway Racing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigeddiechek Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Solid looking team for the Diamonds again. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DIAMONDS Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Yes 2 swedes with plenty of talent and potential, a consistent aussie, two experienced never say die attitude brits and two of the best up and coming brits in the league. I for one am quite happy with this team. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scaramanga Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 Nice.....on the downside, you don't get to watch the Diamonds every week. as long as it wasnt at newcastle id maybe not mind watching them but im sorry brough park just isnt my idea of entertainment 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted December 2, 2013 Report Share Posted December 2, 2013 as long as it wasnt at newcastle id maybe not mind watching them but im sorry brough park just isnt my idea of entertainment Good job it is for others. Terrific racing with the super track, now provided by Jonny Swales, and by a mixed team of gaters and racers. What's there not to like. Both Berwick and Worky have been gaters tracks for the last few years. Faster yes, but processional. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ruffdiamond Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 just seen that Kings Lynn have the two looeys at reserve,,, if there's a fixture clash,,, what does it mean ??? Or 'skill' as this is known to speedway afficianados such as the Brough Park clientele. yeah,,, if ya wanna just go full throttle,,, you might aswell go in a straight line,,, and maybe not come back, lol Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bagpuss Posted December 3, 2013 Report Share Posted December 3, 2013 I think as they are Lynn assets we would take seniority buy seeing as Lynn ride at home on a day when you guys won't ever race and vice versa then fixture clashes will be very rare, and it will be just the odd away meeting that cause a problem.
