Watching a "proper team sport" with much (pardon the pun), riding on each meeting given the rewards and losses that take place depending on who are successful and who are not.. A real "tribal" atmosphere... With not a "guest" in sight!!! another thing i noticed was not many old age pensioners there. id say most of crowed under 40. years old. it must be a bit weird for Pawlicki riding in front of 15000, Sunday night then going to Birmingham next day.

OveFundinFan Posted July 10 Report Share Posted July 10 If not enough of the seats sold in the temporary stand on turn 3-4 to be cost effective it could scupper any future FIM world championship finals held at Belle Vue…… including individual GP’s. Just my opinion. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The camera covering the start line will show a lot of empty seats if they dont move people around, and that will be one of the most used cameras . Personally, I would have shut the back straight for the semis and let everyone sit in the GS, but I believe the Aces now have a food and drink concession on the South Stand so they wont consider it I would think..

Are we assuming Cardiff is a non-starter after this year due to being non-cost effective?,. I’m probably out of touch but I thought Cardiff crowd was around 40,000.

Pretty poor when one considers Wembley world finals, and yes, I do appreciate times are different. Apart from hating being 76, I am grateful I saw my speedway in the 60’s and 70’s. 6 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

About 20,000 last year and this year is the last year of a 3 year deal signed by WBD predecessors IMG. I think SoN is a trial run for a SGP Edited July 10 by iainb 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
