BSN was originally showing the first leg, but they've had to cancel their coverage because Discovery+ takes precedence, even though it's a rearranged fixture (fulfilling contractual obligations). They need to update their TV guide which they keep making mistakes on let's hope the broadcast crew know where to go Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not worth giving him a 28 day ban as this is Birmingham’s last league match. Like you said what a joke!!!! If he comes back next season give him a ban to start the season. Because his absence on Monday was illness and not a speedway injury it is an automatic 7 day period he has to sit out. That only applies to UK so no issue in riding elsewhere. Even if he is now feeling well he is not allowed to compete in thd UK on Thursday 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brilliant !!! What a farce. Rew no better rode today for Leszno U 24 team. Sadly it sums up the dilemma that the sport finds itself in. Too few riders and those that are plying the trade in several leagues going with whoever pays the biggest wedge and the sport in the UK tends to come off second best. Surely those in charge can come up with a formula that allows speedway in the UK to survive and not be subjected to the Polish dominance. If no action is taken, speedway in the UK is on the cusp of turning from a professional sport to an amateur form with it acting as a rider feeder for the more dominate nations. Who knows how it will pan out but those clubs let down by riders who ply the trade in Poland need to think is it worth it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If so, they should have offered you a deal to switch to Discovery+ because it's taking over ... It's all part of a package through Virgin, I don't subscribe to it as a separate entity.
