bruno Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 You can't blame the star for non delivery this week it'll be chaos for delivery companies, I'm expecting something today if it doesn't come so what it'll get here sooner or later 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Triple.H. Posted March 4, 2018 Report Share Posted March 4, 2018 Mine turned up on Thursday morning as usual Which considering if you mention snow in a weather forecast in Oxford mass panic ensues I think is rather good service by the parties involved, espescially my postman who turns up day in day out no matter what the weather is like Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not much to do with deliveries and everything to do with panic buying if there are more than 3 snowflakes fall in an hour!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hadn't seen those reports of the three millennials falling down and all within an hour. I hope there's an immediate and thorough Health and Safety investigation. Whoever is responsible must be publicly denounced. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
waytogo28 Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 The TV deal will have been delayed because of that atrocious weather over five days of last week. And very likely the BSPA are holding back the announcement to coincide with the start of the season to create / raise the excitement level.

Don't they realise that with the age demographic of the average speedway fan up and down the country, the the added tension and suspense could lead to a widespread epidemic of hypertension, cardiac arrests or other internal seizures ? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
uk_martin Posted March 7, 2018 Report Share Posted March 7, 2018 Great news! British Gymnastics has got a new TV deal. - http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/gymnastics/43323146 Which kind of reminds us all of what a pickle speedway is in, if Gymnastics gets to be screened and speedway can't. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bill94d Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 Can someone please summarise the situation as of this moment? I have just had notification that my BT sub is going up in March. No speedway and I would cancel. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PHILIPRISING Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 THERE will be speedway on BT, domestic as well as SGP. Why there delay in an announcement from BSPA HQ is anybody's guess... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno Posted March 8, 2018 Report Share Posted March 8, 2018 My broadband and sport contract is up mid May, has anyone negotiated a deal with them lately. Broadband is the 52mb one I think it's called infinity. Seen in the paper it's £24.99 for new customers, surprise surprise I pay more than that by nearly 50%. I had a good deal when I started with them. I'm paying £10 for the sport, it's just gone up from £7.50. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
