Bojangles Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 23 hours ago, Bojangles said: I like Janowski, but there's a lot of chat about him 'improving'. He had one good meeting at home to Leicester, and that's it as far as I can see. Needs a few more good ones (and needs to make a few starts) before we should start claiming he's improving, surely? Got that wrong. Well done Magic. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bigcatdiary Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 2 hours ago, StarBoy said: If I was to guesstimate I would say typical crowds this season have been 1200-1500. Last night was probably 900-1000 I presume most of them were well out of camera view then because the supporters we sawn the terraces and seats were few and far between, it looked a shocking attendance no doubt affected by the Eurosport cameras.

Phil The Ace Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 And why does every time there is a TV meeting people come on here and go on and on about crowd size. for the past 20 years crowd sizes when on tv are smaller than the average crowd. Always as been. Always will be unless they do some sort of deal for TV meetings. Why do you all act shocked 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Roger Jacobs Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 13 hours ago, tellboy said: He has bulked Wojdylo twice now losing the team points.They have to move him from the no5 spot. I think they tried to protect Kvech's debut by pairing him with Klindt. From what we could see on TV, putting Basso with Kvech would be as bad as Basso with Wojdylo. Now that Kvech has shown what they were hoping for, he could ride at #2, and pair Iversen with Basso at #3 & #4. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gjcone44 Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 tell you what also pizzis me when on tv, how the commentator's feel they have the right to get in the way of riders and mechanic's while meeting is going on, Nichols should no better.

Badge Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Well my opinion for what it's worth, when Tobias is back, this team is going to be a spoiler regarding the play offs. Not sure they can make the top 4 but definitely going to affect the ones that are. Especially with those 2 reserves. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really enjoyed that, a good solid team effort with everyone winning a race and only three last places. Oxford weren't great but played their part in a good night's racing. Big thanks to Richard Lawson again who really buys into the team spirit and togetherness when he guests. Get Tobi back, keep everyone fit and we might be able to have a good go at finishing fourth. And then who knows. Edited June 18 by Bagpuss Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Just so disappointing to see the sport beamed into homes around the nation looking so poorly attended... I read an idea around showing Polish Speedway on one of the UK channels.. That might improve the perception of it's popularity, which, maybe, could get some spin off for UK tracks, especially nowadays as several of the riders at the top level in Poland now also ride over here, meaning some familiarity... A two hour advert for your business, yet for many tracks, it makes them look like they are a struggling business, which won't encourage too many to have that FOMO feeling.. I presume the payment they get must cover the drop in punters, given no promotion takes place for the TV meetings.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly the Peterborough of last season - however wouldnt it be nice (for stars fans) if they could just for once get it right from the beginning of the season! if they hadnt had 2 points taken off and won their home match in hand they would be off the bottom and likely pushing for the last plsyoff spot! They do look decent at home - although with Tobias out for 28 days one wonders if he will return! I hope so as he is a decent rider. As for the crowd or lack of I rather suspect no one is suprised but as someone else says it just seems sad to see a decent match on TV in front of what appears to be a rather sparsely attended meeting, altho i reckon it was maybe about 1000.

Musielak is definitely coming back, hopefully Stars win their appeal and get the 2 points back! I think they’ll have a good chance of finishing 4th then, but it will still be tricky 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickie Head Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Noticed on at least 3 occasions riders who were tight on time went to tapes in the wrong direction. Is that allowed? Thought it was outlawed and attracted a fine. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ovalman Posted June 18 Report Share Posted June 18 Excellent from Magic, massive improvement, the Ox would have been swamped without his contribution. Some good racing, and more entertaining than watching the Euros game for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure whether that could be deemed as an excuse but otherwise I don’t know why he wasn’t excluded. Don't look like it in this pic..
