wtf Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 I think the biggest problem at Berwick at the moment isn't what they charge to get in, it's the track provides little or no entertainment. It really has been pretty awful stuff served up so far this year 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

At a Mildenhall they are near to RAF bases and planes are always flying over often during a meeting. I guess Most curfews are do to noise levels?

screm Posted May 3, 2023 Report Share Posted May 3, 2023 At the end of it all everyone has two choices, you either go or you don`t, we know the price. The promotion must feel they have set a price that is attractive enough to get as many as possible track side and at the same time making enough to cover the costs. If they have then credit to them, if they haven't its them who have to make up the short fall, then go and look at where they went wrong. Don`t forget the free car parking.

Good job it's free ,if a couple are traveling from further afield to the meeting then by the time they pay for fuel etc it's going to cost the best end of £100 for a night out , it's becoming a very expensive hobby 1 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stuntdouble Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 Never a charge for parking at Shielfield. The football club had Jimmy on the front of the entrance and he would get every driver to buy a 50/50 ticket. You felt obliged to buy one. Every car one ticket and a lot less people to catch when entering the stadium. Great opportunity to make some decent prize money and funds for the club. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
crescent girl Posted May 4, 2023 Report Share Posted May 4, 2023 Good news is that Jonas Knudsen is hoping to take his place in the line-up on Saturday. Greg Blair continues in place of Nathan Stoneman. Scunny are changing their line-up, bringing in Nathan Ablitt to replace the very unlucky-to-be-dumped Joe Thompson and Max Clegg to fill the spot that Zaine Kennedy has not been able to take up after his injury in Australia. NDL teams are as expected, r/r for Archie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
