FromBendThree Posted February 10 Report Share Posted February 10 See Lynn have axed Gav Caney as presenter. Any news who will replace? It was good to have a youngish voice - too many old men doing the job in British speedway. Last season’s BEN fund at Lynn was a classic example. Borefest.

Reading between he lines it seems his departure might be linked to the fallout between Buster and Brady. A pity because he was decent on the mic.

Totally agree or the atmosphere is likely to be flat as a pancake We had a chap on the mic a few seasons back, very lively but knew sweet fa about speedway. With a bit longer behind the mic he'd have developed a bit of speedway knowledge and been decent at the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted February 21 Report Share Posted February 21 (edited) Sometimes an over enthusiastic presenter looks a bit silly at Lynn. Trying to get the crowd going at Lynn don't always work imho. Edited February 21 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cartman Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 wouldn't be surprised to see Craig Saul involved at least for some meetings Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FromBendThree Posted February 22 Report Share Posted February 22 Names suggested are old school announcers. Nothing wrong in that when giving heat results and riders in next heat. BUT the club needs a live wire centre green (concrete) presenter. Need someone to whip up the crowd. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Needs a crowd to whip up, too.I have seen posters around town advertising stock car meetings but absolutely nothing regarding speedway. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FromBendThree Posted February 24 Report Share Posted February 24 Bound to be cold that day, Has it snowed on P and P day, I recall it has. Definitely snowed the Good Friday Stars took on a depleted Leicester team - drifts on A47. Mike Lee beat Ray Wilson that day. Can you imagine a meeting going on in those conditions these days.
