It would be worth (alongside a supporting sponsor) PAYING Sky sport to cover UK speedway and get back the professional coverage and commentary to help significantly promote the sport.

WRDukes Posted October 8 Report Share Posted October 8 A little off topic - caught the end of a programme called Shed and Buried(?) this evening with that bloke Henry Cole. He purchased an old Lewis Bridger Jawa, got it going & flogged it to a bloke from Hagon Shocks. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zagarmeister Posted October 9 Report Share Posted October 9 (edited) Screensport were great back in the day with Dave Lanning. "And a why thy droive from the starrrrt!" Also have to mention that pre-digital era, I used to manually turn my dish a few degrees to the left (North East I think) and pick up Polsat for free. Along with some,err, Dutch channels.............. Edited October 9 by Zagarmeister 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Always watch this prog couldn't believe my eyes, they bought a 'grasser' rolling chassis once, also sold to Hagon Shocks, their bikes / cars almost always start easily after 'just new fuel & maybe a spark plug', the ep is repeated on Quest this Saturday at 9pm, speedway bike part could be 9.30....
