ColinMills Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 Sport thrives on passion, imo, if your club was near top of say PL, and speedway had proper rules, like promotion/relegation, atmosphere would be automatic Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike.Butler Posted June 25, 2014 Report Share Posted June 25, 2014 I think it's 50/50 as to whether Speedway in the UK will be entirely Amateur by the time I pass on. Either way I will still attend meetings in the hope that I get entertained at least some of the time. I can live with: ever-shrinking crowds no atmosphere no seating no world class riders no additional entertainment I would find it harder to live with: less overtaking than we have now Fewer races for my money than we have today Meetings taking longer than they take on average now At least I will always have my programmes and stats to look back on when I'm either dead or just unable to get out any longer. I will ensure the sport gets a mention at my service as it has played a significant part in my life so would be churlish to ignore it even if those who had a duty of care over the years have failed me miserably.

Trees Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 The quality of the speedway dictates the atmosphere not just the name of the team !It adds to it yeah but some fans are definitely more vocal than others! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hammers66 Posted June 26, 2014 Report Share Posted June 26, 2014 As a newbie to the sport, I think a cheap entry night would be a good idea. Or a family ticket offer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
