Danny Connor Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 its only really worth having bt for both. there is normally some form of link to the gps within 48 hours on youtube. 2016 i got my gf to find it for me so i didn't get any spoilers. I'm more of a league racing fan and not really into any other sports. if no league racing then there will be no subscription from me! i want meetings on tv 7 days a week!!! cl/nl too !if it loses its pl football then why not! the more on tv the more chance of a random tv channel hopper finding out about the sport! the more hype and meaning it will all have too! even the more sellable it would be to league naming sponsors! imagine some big company seeing speedway is on 3 nights a week! British league speedway brought to you by a 7 figure sponsor. more exposure the more possible that could become. . . . before that comment gets urinated on too much. Somebody sponsors netball nowhere near mainstream. rally too. ski sports. just needs some energy put into it all Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He understands the delay in announcement is due to the forthcoming confirmation of whom has won the PL Football rights 2019 onwards. If BT are unsuccessful in getting what they want they will likely run an ad campaign about what other sport they still have on the channels inc Speedway. I really don’t understand what, whether they get football or not, has got to do with promoting speedway !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

BT has a 3 year contract for the GP's so 2018 was a surety for GP's. Not sure but I think 2018 is the last of the 3 years, someone will confirm this or otherwise I am sure.

mike1944 Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 Well rightly or wrongly I have recontracted for BT sport again I am a BT phone and Broadband customer so get it for £7.50 a month to receive it on Sky. If they do show the League I may consider upgrading to HD. OK it seems a lot a month but then BT sport do at last show other motor-cycling and motor racing as well as speedway. I may consider even ditching Sky Sports as they are just ball crazy and dumped speedway last year and did not even bother to update their website and no longer even mention speedway at all http://www.skysports.com/speedway/news 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
