Diamondboy Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 1 hour ago, screm said: Taken from Facebook The Newcastle Speedway promotion, along with the sports authorities, have taken the decision to postpone our next home fixture on Sunday 22nd May against Scunthorpe. This is to allow for essential track work to be carried out. The promotion is working with BSP Limited and the Speedway Control Bureau to carry out this work. We will of course keep all of our supporters up to date with this work, and hope to have everything complete and approved in time for our next fixture against Redcar on Sunday 29th And again nothing whatsoever on the club website, not everyone does social media. Absolute joke, joke promotion. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Absolute joke, joke promotion. Some clubs do link their social media to their website so can read it on there. Be good if more did it too. https://www.poole-speedway.com/ If anyone scrolls down the page on the link, you can see 'join the conversation' section where the latest tweets from twitter are shown. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Chris116 Posted May 9, 2022 Report Share Posted May 9, 2022 Just looked at the Diamonds website and the next meeting according to the website is on Sunday 8th May against Glasgow! The latest news story is about over 65's getting in free on 22nd May which is the meeting that has been cancelled according to the Facebook message but still appears on the BSPL website as the next Diamonds home meeting. Left hand and right hand don't appear to know what the other is doing! It is good to see the promotion are using social media but they need to make sure that all platforms have the same message so they don't land up sending out different messages on different platforms. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thing is though it is not rocket science to cover every base media wise, it is quite simple, but obviously not simple enough. They cannot even inform paying customers what is happening in the stadium. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Got no idea how easy it is, am frightened of the sky remote!!!,,, a think some stuff is relayed at the stadium, but there's no way of knowing how many actually listen to what is said and comprehend it. Possibly many of them playing with tha phones on social media at the time, already, yesterday, sick?
