Warning To Anybody Attending A Double Header.

[Silver Cheetah Snr]

Well said. Some fans just like a good moan. A bit like those moaning about paying £2 more for seeing their EL team in the play offs.

Just go on sucking up to Neil, it won't do you any good.

Why should I wait until it happens and chuck more of my money away.

On what now appears to be a policy by Coventry only.

Would you kindly quote my post and your reply to ME

As yet again the above post is a blatant lie.

I have never asked you what the policy is.

All I have done is question your lies about the fact that readmission terms for a double header were clearly posted outside the stadium.

http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/index.php?showtopic=80320&p=2680321 and other posts in that thread.

 

You are very free with your use of the word 'lie' - an extra £10 in the BenFund bucket tomorrow from whoever's wrong about the Turnstile notices? I assume you'll be there as it's not a double header.

Just go on sucking up to Neil, it won't do you any good.

It might :-)

Please grow up.

It's not about sucking up as you put it, it's about not moaning just for the sake of moaning.

It's just as frustrating for Coventry and the riders who might now miss out on a golden cup place.

 

You saw 23 for the 30 heats last night. How much money do you expect back?

I see you can't provide any evidence for your last post as usual.

Have you been out painting signs today then and I bet they do not mention double headers.

And no I will not be there tomorrow which will be the first meeting I have missed all year both home and away (Bees and Storm)

But If you can prove the lies that you posted above are true then I will gladly give Rob a tenner for the fund.

Yes it has happened see post #10.

Maybe you are happy at getting ripped off but a lot of people are not.

Do you remember last years double headers with the famous statement of "We will give you news of the time of tonights curfew"

As I say you will soon be the only person stood on the terraces if the public keep getting treated with contempt.

And please in future do not say I have said something that I have not.

Don't expect me to remember something from last season as I haven't enough brain cells left to store useless Speedway information.

Post 10 as far as I can see is about Belle Vue and an EL match so nothing to do with a NL match at Coventry which is what I was referring to when I said 'wait until it happens.' I presumed we were both on the same subject as Brandon is where you seem to get your Speedway fix these days, but looking again at the topic title I'm obviously wrong so apologise.

I'm quite happy to be 'ripped off' at the moment if that's your opinion and I'm not going to kick up a fuss at paying £15 for 23 races.

Well said 👍🏻

I have never been that keen on attending double headers and all to often problems seem to be encountered with the running of them.

anyone that attended the numerous double headers at white city in the 1970's would know exactly what you mean Eddie!

[uk_martin]

Well said. Some fans just like a good moan. ...

 

Quite correct. And just wait til they moan about the programme insert when the fixture eventually gets replayed.

Can't wait to see the answer to this one...

 

And another question for the pot, are 15 races at PL level worth more than 23 races at NL level? You paid about the same money, did you feel you got better or worse value for it?

I expect to see a result at least. You seem to be happy to average heats out here. So surely if a meeting gets rained off after 9 heats somewhere, as long as the week before had 15 heats you have over to meetings seen an average of 12 heats so why expect money back?

 

The second meeting didn't get to heat 10, some money should be returned.

I agree.The OP has a justifiable cause for complaint in my opinion The club should make their terms and conditions clear & understandable at the stadium entrance, with a particular reference to double headers which are obviously not the same as a normal 15 heat meeting. I understand that questions were asked by Silver Bee & his family but no-one at the turnstiles had the answers,once they had paid to gain entrance it was all a little too late.

To be honest Horton & Co have been getting away with dodgy double header meetings for some considerable time now, what with the imposition of the non existent curfew, damage to fences & riders, as well as the genuine rain offs.

The bottom line is that if they offer the fans two meetings back to back, then that is what they should get not one and a bit.

If the promoters had any decency they would make clear their policy for double header meetings so that everyone understands what their entitlement is in the event of any early curtailment.

[NeilWatson]

I have taken on board everything that's been said in this thread.

 

Should we stage double-headers in the future I will make sure that a revised policy is in place to cater for the different circumstances.

What curfew at Brandon ? Is it a new one and only for speedway ?

Well its taken a long time, but at last we are getting somewhere now .

I think everyone will be pleased with that.

Yes, just for Speedway. Everyone has to be out by the end of the Andy Williams song otherwise they get locked in until the next match.

An 8pm start for the sky match will be interesting as the first race might not start until at least 8.20pm as the sky puppets will be so excitable about this match and won't stop for air lol

Turn it in, you don't half talk some waffle.

The term is 'employees'. I assume you're not familiar with the concept. Just to help you normally such people have to do what their bosses ask them to do, as long as it obeys the law of the land, not the addled views of a persistent whinger.
