New Science Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) I take it that tai won't be making a surprise special guest appearance tonight Robert ,while I'm on same page as you about Tai missing the British Final, your anti Tai rants on seemingly every topic is undermining a couple of valid points you make , might be best to debate the facts and not make it so personal .

Mark Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 https://www.youtube.com/channel/UCkuWlNTCOBoTqTl24ZKONXw/live Very good so far. Good explanation from Mr Gordon about the early track problems. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikec Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) Enjoyed the forum tonight. I thought the panel spoke well, it was light-hearted at times but covered some contentious issues too (Tai, EDR, amalgamation etc) & they said what they thought. Would like to see it replicated at other tracks with different participants on the panel, maybe take it to PL & NL tracks, where there are different issues & viewpoints to be expressed, while still have the common goal of helping British speedway become strong again. Here's hoping. Edited June 8, 2016 by mikec 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Wouldn't work You missed nothing. Just that Stead and Worrall want to be British Champion and that promoters cannot answer a straight question with a straight answer. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bunce Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 I thought tonights broadcast was an excellent idea, well executed, and the way to go if the BSPA want to involve the fans more. Its a pity the questions could only be asked via Twitter, as I don't "tweet" I'm sorry I think Twitter is a daft concept, but thats just my view! Why not have a temporary email address for us "normal" people to ask a question? There weren't any sensational revelations, but for a first attempt at the idea, I thought it was very good. Well done to all concerned. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob B Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Thought it was a really good online production and an interesting watch. Couldn't see the point of being there though with no questions coming from the room. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ColinMills Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 thought it was well produced for you tube, yes things could of been different, but think it shows how they can reach out to the speedway public Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobMcCaffery Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 (edited) I found it worthwhile. Given that it is essentially a piece of P.R. by the BSPA with the primary aim to sell tickets for Monday you can't really expect huge revelations. Instead it was good to hear the Belle Vue promotions comments on what they have been through whether or not you agree with them or not. We've been over that well-trodden road too many times this year. There is only so much that can be done at meetings and on TV to let supporters hear from those directly involved in the sport and it's good to see the BSPA finally embracing modern technology and setting this up. In fact I'd say these events should be regular features during the season. Perhaps if people in the sport in all aspects started listening to each other there might be a little more understanding and tolerance? Sadly there is another such opportunity here in this forum but far too much time is wasted by people's egos and twit for tat bickering to let it flourish. This year we've also seen regular clips of racing published on the BSPA website so at last progress is being made by the BSPA in promoting itself to its public and hopefully the world beyond via the internet. They are small steps but ones in the right direction. Tonight's forum was never going to be sensational but it was good to hear what was being said, even if some of it was of necessity limited by the need to put a positive spin on what was after all intended to sell tickets. I particularly liked David Gordon's comments about trying to rebuild the after-meeting social scene at Belle Vue and most of all Richie Worrall talking about how much fun it was to ride the new Belle Vue track. Yes, fun. That's what the sport should be about, exciting, risky but above all fun. Well done BSPA - it's good to see you getting something right. Keep trying please.

uk_martin Posted June 8, 2016 Report Share Posted June 8, 2016 Why is there a fake 30-minute countdown built into the video? You can by-pass the countdown by scrolling forward on the time line...so what's that all about? Sorry, was someone trying to create an impression of professionalism with this video clip? FAIL!

There's always one. Yes, ignore the content and just blast the intro. So intelligent..,... The count-down was there on the live feed and obviously wasn't taken off the recorded version. You were supposed to watch it live. Now try watching the rest once you've learned to FF. Edited June 8, 2016 by rmc 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
