oleoleole Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 How come this is still dragging on? How can riders (and teams) encourage sponsorship when they still don't know if the sponsors will get TV exposure. Surely by now race suits, bike covers etc need to be sorted.

They probably already know either way. If it was a done deal then BT Sport will want to announce it when they are ready. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BT are absolute useless. I took out a subscription with BT last year mainly to watch Speedway My subscriptions were 1st,2nd 3rd months £0.00 4th,5th and 6 month £25.00 a month Then 7th,8th and 9th month £27.50 10th month (now for February) £34.00 so 4 different prices in 10 months so I cancelled on Monday They could not tell me if there would be any League speedway and although I paid 34.00 on Monday it was cut off later on in the evening .I had the choice of seeing out my contract which would cost another £96.00 or cancelling now and costing me £60.00 so I took the latter. It is terrible that they and other internet companies can just raise the prices without any notification Edited February 7, 2018 by mickthemuppet Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If every one stopped paying for it..it would soon be got shot of and the Bbc would have to find other ways of raising money. So a drain on honest folk in more ways than one.

mike1944 Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 BT sport do at least show other motor bike racing as well as speedway which is a damn sight more than BBC does apart from F1. Sky Sports are only mainly interested on games played with a ball. I cannot ever see Sky Sports taking speedway back. Speedway does need to get its act together and make speedway attractive to TV at the present time they do very little, year in year out, to make it in any way attractive to anyone whether it be the TV viewer of the spectator who attends the meetings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You portray a freeloader much more than a little rascal. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
KevH Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 4 hours ago, PHILIPRISING said: IT'S happening but lack of official confirmation is baffling I believe that the television rights for football over the next few years are being announced next week? I'm sure BT have given priority to this and the speedway deal will be revealed in good time (sometime after). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I go to work everyday and pay my way...don't see how that's a freeloader....Looks like you are making up stories in your head from what I have written. If that makes you feel better then carry on..but do me a favour..if you are going to judge me..judge me correctly. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
hrhbig Posted February 7, 2018 Report Share Posted February 7, 2018 According to what I have read BT are not happy at the moment with subscribers leaving, and the company on dodgy ground as they paid too much for Football rights, causing them to struggling a bit financially, so cant honestly see them doing anything about Speedway coverage until the decision is made about the Footy, but equally I could be totally wrong...hope so.
