Arch Stanton Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 Don’t think they have the old traditional AGM’s anymore do they? Just a group zoom call on no particular set dates. Pretty sure that was the case last year anyway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dontforgetthefueltapsbruv Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 All the big decisions already sewn up in August Just a bit of tinkering around the edges (and some gerry mandering if required to shaft as required ) 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cowboy cookie returns? Posted October 14, 2022 Report Share Posted October 14, 2022 One thing they have to sort out is that all fixtures are completed before the play offs commence. This season the play offs were a farce, the grand final of the league program taking place with league fixtures outstanding. One of the fixtures could have lead to a different semi final match up. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And what makes it so frustrating is that it will quite likely happen again... If the promoters themselves dont see their own competitions as being important enough to be ran properly, and to be therefore taken seriously, then what chance are they giving themselves of convincing fans, media and sponsors, that these competitions are worth attending, covering and sponsoring? As often will be said.. There needs to be a strong hand on the tiller which ensures so much 'self inflicted nonsense' (which can only undermine the sport), is eradicated.. Be that an independent person, or party, or someone within the BSP who gets given total authority to make decisions for the good of the sport, and has the power to impose consequences to those who fail to comply.. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

King's Lynn advertised tonight's league cup final as their most important match of the season. I find it hard to consider the competition important when it has been ignored for 4 / 5 months!

FishersGate Posted October 23, 2022 Report Share Posted October 23, 2022 I'm fairly newish to speedway. Been going on/off for around 10 years with a large gap in the middle. Workington for sure. They bought some fans down to leicester years ago were good fun. Newport and lakeside (I support west ham). What would you guys think about a brand new speedway club? A new name, location everything?
