G the Bee Posted October 15, 2013 Report Share Posted October 15, 2013 It is on the Swindon Speedway website Adults £25 Concessions £20 Kids 12 to 16 £5 Kids under 12 Free And that is precisely why I will be staying at home! What a rip off! Only £4 cheaper than the GP in Cardiff. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lefty Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Does the car park price (? £1.50) increase also? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Woffinden, King, Hancock and Zagar out Schlein, Batchelor, Harris and Zengota in. So Swindon now have 3 in while others only have 1. at the moment my prediction of four pull outs is spot on, no doubt by saturday evening there might be more!

Gemini Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Why no Hancock? Has he done his job now and that's it? 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hagonshocker Posted October 16, 2013 Report Share Posted October 16, 2013 Zero interest in this meeting as there are another 3 days for more to pull out..fields already average and we get a much better line up for the Kilb openers...Schlein and Harris seem to be permanant fulltime invited riders at Swindon held individual meetings and as for watching Zengota pootle round..pfft...enough time for Kenny the Bear to find an excuse as well as Buzckowski or however u mispell it and someone tell Darcy to stay clear of village inns on friday night.....strictly come dancing anyone?

crescent girl Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 Why no Hancock? Has he done his job now and that's it? I read someplace that Tai Woffinden was in USA as a guest of Monster Energy at a very big 'do' they are staging for all the sportsmen they sponsor, so it seems logical that Greg Hancock, who was their first marquee speedway signing, would be there too. Presumably the date was known well before Greg even contemplated returning to the Elite League. Any complaints over his non-appearance tomorrow should be levelled at the BSPA press people, or whoever originally suggested he would be riding at Swindon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 After Darcy's big fall on Wednesday his wrist has swollen and needed hospital physio treatment yesterday and today!! Watch this space!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
YerRopes Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 wont be going, not at 50 quid to get in for me and 'er indoors... ridiculous. Strictly as well for us! Agreed, £25 per head is way too much money and then there's £1.50 for parking and the cost of programme(s) too...shan't be watching 'Strictly' though.. Poole had a good field for the Blue Riband and that was £18 I believe, a full £7 cheaper... Pricing for this event needs to be looked at, as it is not the prestigious event it once used to be Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Trees Posted October 18, 2013 Report Share Posted October 18, 2013 (edited) Yep, no World Champ at the ELRC, he's in America with Monster, it's on the BSPA website ........... real shame eh! Edited October 18, 2013 by Trees Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
