lbw Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 Embarrassing TV coverage again for speedway after Eurosport previously being at Ipswich with 'no crowd' in attendance. And we know it's a top of the table clash but looking at the TV & it looks like sum local Sunday league meeting. Is there no offer on to attract folk to attend? Oh dear, very poor marketing. I'd be pulling the plug if I were Discovery as it looks like no one is interested in the product ur trying to sell! So sad. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

A couple of weeks ago Josh happily went by max in heat 13 but no doubt Mark Lemon thinks he’ll get more from RR. Be interesting to see how that ends up ? I am Belle Vue will win but I hope Ipswich keep it close Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mikebv Posted June 6, 2022 Report Share Posted June 6, 2022 "Belle Vue a very well supported club".. Nice one Kelv, fair play... Poor timing though just as they show a grandstand with "one or two" empty seats... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So he didn’t see Wright and King side by side in heat 3, or Batchelor pass Brennan in heat 4. Track is fast and grippy though tonight, times in the 59s. It will start to move wider soon hopefully.

With many other niche sports crying out for what Speedway has... Sadly Speedway (UK), doesn't know how to market itself to make the most of so many hours of coverage... I watched Lublin and Wroclaw last evening.. Wow.. Exactly the same sport.. But a world of difference.. Noise, atmosphere, and a full house... It did mean something though in the context of being a proper sporting fixture, which may be one of the reasons why it was taken so seriously..

Poole fans got fed up continually winning the Premiership/Elite league so are just trying something different and better. Their only issue is the future of the stadium.
