Speedway4ever Posted April 12, 2020 Report Share Posted April 12, 2020 (edited) If all clubs offered a free or reduce admission to NHS staff (On proof of I.D) after COVID-19 is done then it would be a great gesture, but the sport could also benefit from them spending money in the ground and hopefully bring in new fans if current NHS Speedway fans spread the word to promote the sport too and come and enjoy a night's racing.

Read that Poole and Eastbourne have already announced some free NHS deals. Hope more will follow. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mimmo Posted April 14, 2020 Report Share Posted April 14, 2020 I'd like to see every multi millionaire/billionaire in this country, treat every one of the NHS key workers to a free holiday in the sun, once this is all over. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GWC Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 (edited) If speedway does start up this season I think getting track medical assistance will be very difficult in the current climate. Edited April 15, 2020 by GWC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would hope that the oft quoted wonderful BSF community, if they saw a NHS newcomer at a match, would actually buy them a drink / meal as a personal thank you and not rely on them buying their own; whoever gets the profits.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bruno Posted April 15, 2020 Report Share Posted April 15, 2020 Gave the chap on Tesco checkout a fiver yesterday to have a pint on me. You'd have thought I'd offered to pay he's mortgage he was so grateful. Made me think I don't reckon many had made the gesture. Then again I don't know where he's going to buy the pint 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Great idea, extend it to other care workers as well, but would welcome reduced admission if my team can afford it Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
