Times to be confirmed. Currently only open to Sponsors and ST holders which is causing some moaning from non ST holders. Expand There is precious little benefit in having a speedway season ticket in most offerings so Id say good on them for this - a perfect way of offering some extra value for the commitment shown 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted March 15, 2024 Report Share Posted March 15, 2024 "not open to the general public sadly !! " "ST holders only " That's the way to get British Speedway off to a good start in 2024 . Bloomin' hopeless the lot of them. "promoters" my a**e Kings Lynn appear to be more inclusive - good luck the them. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But there will be a live streamed press conference at 1pm hosted by Darren Fletcher featuring all of the top riders from each Premiership team which everyone can watch on British Speedway social media and YouTube. Fans will be able to ask questions too and a selection will be used. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bringbackHalifax Posted March 17, 2024 Report Share Posted March 17, 2024 Genuine question who is paying the riders travel for this event. for example Zach Cook from Poole to Manchester and back in his hire van eats up his 500 mile a week allowance and no chance to earn any points money. Many more examples available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps they should have announced beforehand that every team would have a rider present, then shock us all when at least 5 from every team turned up? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
