What price is parking at Blunsdon this season? Stadia UK increasing the charges at Poole to £2.50 for Speedway from April!!!

Blimey! That's awful. :o Perhaps the person who was complaining about paying £1 at Peterborough should read this. :wink:

I am surprised that anyone uses it, there must be alternative places to park with a short walk.

Stadia UK have the lease to manage the whole site. They take all the revenue from parking, bars and the restaurant.

 

The car park is used substantially during the day time by lots of different office and hospital staff and usually clears out from 5pm onwards to allow the speedway parking to commence on meeting days.

So does that mean Stadia UK take the parking money all day every day? If so it's a strange situation for someone that leases the site

of course they keep all the car park money,if you lease a shop for example you pay the rent and keep all the shop takings. edit they also put up price on all meals and drinks and increased the dogs tote retention(what goes in their pocket) to 31%.

Of course they do. The site is theirs to manage as they see fit. I believe there is also a car boot on Sundays. There is also a Day Nursery attached to the Champs Bar.

 

Don't know how much the Council charge them for the lease?

Jason and Nick got through to the semi final in the pairs but were beaten by KL Lambert and Holder getting 5 points to Jasons 4 and Nicks 0. When possible Jason does need to help his team mates rather than just fly off in the lead.

Hard to do when Nick was last from the tapes & if he tried & got passed by both Kings Lynn riders then that would be wrong to some.

 

There needs to be a clear plan of what the club want Jason to do this season.

I accept that and it is a skill that a rider can learn, but even at Swindon Jason never looks for his team mate.

Rosco has stated that we had two starts using from gate 4 which was useless so maybe I was a bit hard on Nick if he had those when he got two 0s.

Lets see how he goes tonight.

We did and it wasn't great. I thought we should have put Jason in gate 4 in the semi when you had choice of who went where. Second and third would have been enough. Although it would have been a travesty if KL hadn't won they were by far the best pair on the night.

 

To be fair it wouldn't have made a difference, Wolves put Lindgren in gate 4 in the final and it just meant KL came out of the first couple of bends first and second and disappeared into the distance.

I've given the signing of Bellego stick but was impressed by him tonight.

The less said about Adam & Emil the better but BWD & Zac were on the pace.

Changes needed ASAP though.

Don't panic CR. The team that started the season will not be the team to finish it - it's all part of Rosco's master plan. The teams that ride against us in the first month must be happy - keep the faith :wink:
