    The BSPA can be proud of their hand in closing down Kent speedway at Iwade, and extinguishing the last league speedway in the South East of England.

    it’s been fun - my family over 3 generations have been supporting speedway since the early 30’s at Crystal Palace, but finally old Bob has lapsed his speedway star subscription and with it my interest in a sport that has little appeal in far off locations …….

     

    Same here with Monmore closing, cancelled star a while back. Keep having a gander on here but not sure how much longer. May do a few away days next year. I've not took out BSN and may not bother with the gps

    I can vaguely remember going to a winter meeting at Scunthorpe in the winter of 2009/10, somewhere around New Year, it was very wet and cold unsurprisingly. I think Kevin Doolan might have won it although I can't find any details anywhere.

    I went to that but left before the end absolutely freezing

    Personally not a fan of Batch for all the reasons mentioned on here, this was reinforced when he disrespected the paying public at the Championship Pairs last season not trying and pulling wheelies at the back. On the plus side he has great pedigree, experience and as a fellow Aussie he can hopefully help mentor young Tate.

    Spot on, to sign a rider with this attitude is madness

  4. BSN is great value but I can't justify paying out for the product they are covering especially with losing Monmore. I may visit Perry Barr but may just accept my speedway days have finished. I've already cancelled speedway star, I won't take out the championship stream on BSN and won't be taking out Discovery + this year for 7 months. I may take the premiership streaming on BSN and justify it as being my Xmas prezzie from the mother in law. Disposable income is a lot less these days for everyone and I have to justify paying out for stuff. As a side note car insurance gone from £235 to £716. The World's gone mad. If I can't find cheaper the car may go and motorbiking days might be a thing of the past 


  5. I know someone who was doing security work and Vanessa Feltz was there, he wouldn't let her back in because she'd forgot her i.d badge and she came out with don't you know who I am . You can guess his reply lol they had to get the manager to let her back in. The security did know her really but was worth saying no just to see the look on her face. Horrible woman apparently

    Only for the normal time slot for shoppers which isn’t sufficient time for you to attend the speedway without getting a fine so effectively, no you can’t 

    Thanks for that, doesn't help getting fans there I'd imagine

  7. I'm roughly in-between Monmore and Perry Barr but the two journeys couldn't be more different and the viewing outside at Brum is terrible. Also despite the track being a good shape the racing never seems that good to me although premier league could make it decent. I'm still undecided what I'm doing next season but il no doubt go over a few times
