A.N.Other Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 I cannot for the life of me understand why Craig is not promoting this like mad ? I have just this minute checked on his website, and there doesnt seem to be ANY MENTION of it ! Does he want a testimonial or not ? Its now just over ONE WEEK AWAY and as far as I can see there is TOTAL SILENCE regarding things like obtaining advance tickets and intended lineups etc. I spoke to Glasgow Speedway who said (as apparently with all testimonials), they are not involved in any way with ticket sales for Craigs do. They suggested I looked at his website, which as I said previously, doesnt have any mention about it ! I fear this event will either not go ahead, or at least, will be severely under attended !

Hardly total silence! It's been promoted all over twitter for a good few months now, and retweeted by Glasgow, Edinburgh etc. Have seen loads of stuff on there about Rider sponsorship packages, Heat sponsorship, Mascot packages, Pin badges, Tickets and can be all be bought online on his website, tickets include a free easter egg and programme if bought online! Craig is by far the most active rider in the UK in regards of Promoting himself on Social media and has a big following on there, i'm sure something special is lined up to announce the line up. The advertisement that's been posted and that's also in the Speedway star offers an idea of who will be riding i'd say. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tyretrax Posted April 11, 2019 Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 (edited) Marksman, not everyone is on twitter. Personally I think Sunday would have been a better day. Edited April 11, 2019 by tyretrax 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Neila Posted April 11, 2019 Author Report Share Posted April 11, 2019 It may well be promoted via twitter etc but this seams to be begging for sponsorship, myself and most other people would like to see a potential line up with some/all riders named, then we can decide to travel hundreds of miles to potentially support this meeting, Has anyone !! got any names PLEASE Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Think Easter Sunday is a very big day in Poland for speedway so not many riders will be available Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

They are missing out then Any speedway news nowadays is generally known on there first before anywhere else! Also I seen a post on the other Thread about Craig's main sponsors CFS missing from his race suit, I wonder what happened there! Fair play as they seem to stump up funds for multiple riders and GB youth setup, but they always come across rather embarrassing and unprofessional on social media it has to be said...

Cj69 Posted April 13, 2019 Report Share Posted April 13, 2019 He has said he will be getting programme start of the week so would assume he has riders confirmed. Unsure why not announced any. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
scoobydoo Posted April 14, 2019 Report Share Posted April 14, 2019 If Peterborough is anything to go by those invited to ride most likely not signed a contract to ride yet 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
