pugwash Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Crap coverage, no sound from the track, Just the commentator talking over the footage. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

nw42 Posted May 9, 2017 Report Share Posted May 9, 2017 Crap coverage, no sound from the track, Just the commentator talking over the footage. Are you referring to the Premier Sports coverage on now? If so I think your speakers may need adjusting, the sound from the track is audible, bikes, crowd, stadium announcer etc.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mark Posted May 10, 2017 Report Share Posted May 10, 2017 Good program last night. Pleased to see speedway on tv so no big grumbles. Enjoyed both Swedish live and Polish too. A 15 heat meeting shown in 30 minutes is really good. Commentary was fine but could maybe be improved with a 2nd person added to allow discussion points. Good idea to interact with viewers on the program. Having 2 people would allow a decent q+a. I dont care who commentates, all different styles, all got positives and negatives. Pleased we have some sport to watch which is far more important. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

charleval Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 If you received the email regarding speedway, with 2 months for £1. Do not subscribe online as you will pay the full premium. I subscribed yesterday and after filling all forms, which one asked for promotion code (the email does not show one) i submitted it. I phoned Premier Sports Support desk this morning to make sure about the 2 months at £1. They have now reduced my first three payments. Also I forwarded the email to them. They replied that they were sorry and that they confirmed that the code was missing. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
pugwash Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Sorry, I'll stay silent next time... No disrespect to you dave, your commentary is brilliant. But the overdubbing does take some of the atmosphere off the live sound from the track. It would be nice for Prem Sports to fly you out trackside, i'll petition them. All with smart arse comments above, if you note I did not critise the commentary. Edited May 11, 2017 by pugwash Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_martin Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 I'd take Dave Goddards commentary over the offerings of Eurosport & BT Sport at any time, overdub or not. And as for having an "expert summariser", that concept has been brought into disrepute by Sam Ummalenko & co. Just how many mangled pronounciations do you want to be subjected to?

I''d bve amazed if there's a budget to take Dave to Poland. As for 'smart arse' comments I suggest you look at the stupidity of what you posted originally. You said "crap coverage" - so how does that NOT include the commentary? This used to be such a haven from the idiocy of the Elie League/Premiership section. Better to leave you all to it now, I think. Edited May 11, 2017 by rmc Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dave Goddard Posted May 11, 2017 Report Share Posted May 11, 2017 (edited) Drop it please. My comment about staying silent was intended to be humorous. I appreciate you can never please everyone with a commentary, but I try to make it as informative and enjoyable as possible for everyone - and interacting with people through Twitter gets them involved too. As for the biting on small fish comment, I don't like fish much Edited May 11, 2017 by Dave Goddard 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who cares. Lets get speedway on TV and enjoy it. Edited May 11, 2017 by marky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really enjoyed the coverage on Tuesday and I too would much prefer Dave Goddard's commentary compared to Pearsons "Screaming". 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno Posted May 18, 2017 Report Share Posted May 18, 2017 Nearly booked it but put off by it automatically renewing next year unless you cancel in advance which il proberly forget to do and it will £100 plus next year. Seems daft not to have it though at £25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
