Any News If The Betting And Streaming Will Be Around In 2015
Yikes posted a topic in Speedway Betting.
Worked well last year. Hope to see it back and improved. -
Blokes a pillock. Hope the final outcome is he is sent packing for a year or two to learn his lesson.

Chris Harris Testimonial ?
Yikes replied to greytiger's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Great meeting format. Should be good. Will try to get to this one -
The Drury double act should have been put down long ago. I genuinely think this is the worst news since the fear of Brummies closing for good. What a terrible shame, old Tony Mole really didn't put much thought into the future there did he.

Barker & Worrall In Argentina
Yikes replied to DutchGrasstrack's topic in International World of Speedway
Maybe they watched Top Gear -
So what happened
-
Shows the mentality of some people Phil. It's beyond belief lol I think PT Preece has an axe to grind by the title and comments. Good to know he knows how much or little the Centre green man has on before tapes up. Chris you are being too fair and polite I think. If someone isn't happy where they are, they should move. At coventry moving about 10 metres makes a whole lot of difference, particularly as the pa speakers are very directional. In front they are loud, slightly to the side not so loud. Half way between 2 even quieter still. If enough people went to stadiums, maybe the promoters or owners would invest in a up to date system. Never going to happen though. Its not rocket science!!!

Was really pleased to see you both back at Coventry this year after the dreadful start to the season. The volumes around the stadium need sorting, I went around and saw some friends on both bends and on the back straight and it was like someone turns the volume up and down, why can't it just be consistent. Appreciate it's not your doing though if you simply turn up and plug in. I have done a few meetings at Perry Barr this year too and some parts of the outside are really quiet. The bar was nice and loud I thought, not overpowering at all. Mind you the bar has it's own volume control and can turn it up or down if they wish or if people ask. The main bar in Coventry on Friday was a bit too quiet so you didn't really get the announcements too well. I guess if the volume is too quiet or loud where you stand or sit, you can always move somewhere else, it's not like many stadiums are so full they are turning people away at the moment.

If someone was still in gate 4 and flipped the bike or just lost power the rider off 15 could go straight through them, also have to have clear sight of the tapes?

Finally figured out how to get this to work on iPad, using app called photon, also got the wiziwig feed of tonight's sky meeting to play too
-
I thought that just Hans coming around at the end was disgraceful, what was wrong with the team . They ought to have more respect, or was that down to the stadium wanting to rush to the end. Also sorry for the poor second halfers who turn up on a dry night to a meeting that had already been rushed through, only to be sent packing. Particularly as there was plenty of time for the interval. Coventry Speedway - come on...

It's Jepsen Jenson!!!!

Birmingham V Swindon Mon 2nd June
Yikes replied to Brummie Kev's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
When I said theBarker decision was down to him, I meant the ref. As in he didn't have the decision of the pace of the meeting but that potential howler of a call was his work! And I explained his [the refs] logic. Being at the track and not seeing it on sky yet I can't say if it was right or not but suspect probably not!! It was the same ref wasn't it SCB on Friday -
Birmingham V Swindon Mon 2nd June
Yikes replied to Brummie Kev's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Was a bit disappointing but as soon as Wolves was off it was obvious that Brum would be next. To be fair to the ref, at a Sky meeting they have minimal input. The pace, 2mins are all under instruction of Sky. The Barker decision was down to him completely though. I asked him why he excluded Barker and apparently Barker didn't react or change his line because of Morris. So was always going down. Would need to see the replay to confirm if that's right or not though. -
Well no matter what we get tonight (weather dependant) it's a step in the right direction it seems. Refreshing to get a club that takes the feedback and does something with it. Thumbs up from me, well done Mick and co.

Wow! We asked and they listened. Does this mean the Simpsons are back, that's how I read it, but more to the point is Yorkie still going to be on the middle. I know the older brother did the centre for the storm last year..... Please?! Quote the Coventry site: http://www.coventrybees.co/news.php?extend.2689 Friday May 09, 2014 COVENTRY will have revamped meeting presentation in effect for Elite League matches, starting with tonight's clash with Swindon. The meeting will also see the return of the post-match disco in the under-stand bar, hosted by Chris Simpson, with opportunities to meet and greet the riders when time and circumstances allow. We have looked to respond to feedback, and we hope supporters enjoy the changes when they are in force tonight. Hoping to make this but if not bet365 to the rescue. If I can only get the iPad to play it I will be a happy man!

Gp`s Not On German Tv
Yikes replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I was playing with a vpn setup and when streaming from the website last night it worked fine when I reported I was in Germany, didn't try NZ but played with other places I am likely to visit like Spain and France and they worked fine. -
April 26: European Fim Speedway Grand Prix (bydgoszcz, Poland)
Yikes replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Great to see KK win. Ward rode well and entertained as always. I took the comment from Tai as an individual that needed 'sorting out' some one for the chop maybe? -
April 26: European Fim Speedway Grand Prix (bydgoszcz, Poland)
Yikes replied to racers and royals's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Miedsinzki looked awful after that. Totally out of control of his body and shouts and smiley announcing didn't seem to notice they were so focused on talking about Darcy Ward being back in the race. -
Cheers will give it a whirl.

Any one know what countries are supported. Assume if you can set up a vpn for those countries you could stream it then. Also anyone know if it works on iPad or needs to be over a pc that supports flash properly? Ta

Whats The Thoughts On The New Format After The First Month
Yikes replied to Gunners's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Is the new format showing up the short comings in a lot of riders? Certainly the likes of Chris Harris, Ben Barker, Danny King, Edward Kennett seem to be struggling. Is this perhaps because they don't get any easy races which gives them the confidence boost? Do like the part of the rules where the reserves see each other more as makes for better races. -
Has it been figured out if the loss of Drury has any impact on continuing with just 1 promoter.
