I think the only thing that we can guarantee is that BT will not be paying for the coverage and that the leagues will not have a sponsor

I suppose the only positive is They are criticised for holding it late every year thus giving other countries a head start But if riders are already being signed for 2018 it would seem the previous statement is false, it's just the fans that are left wondering

British Superbike use Eurosport in this way extremely well

Even if BT cover costs it's best to have them in place than nothing at all

If I were BT I'd only offer to cover costs

I think they'll have a 42 limit What big guns will be there, let's say it's a fixed race night Maybe Doyle, maybe Tai Can see Lindgren giving next year a miss, holder is a spent force, Vaculik or Smolinksi may be tempted but none of the top riders

King, Schlein, Nicholls, Covatti, Heeps, Newman, Hume. What does that add up to in premiership terms? 😉

More there last night than the play off final, hope to see witches in the top league next season and hope the panthers are running

What an absolute douche

Short hand text, reading between the lines you want Ipswich fans to commit murder, don't think Peterborough will bring any fans

How much is the Sapphire deal worth and why did they pull out

I await their press release with great anticipation, I would say fall at home throwing a stick for his dog

If it's shanes for Lambert I think this could be close, but by close I mean only a ten point defeat

Baldy, we're looking at 2019/2020 season in all honesty (as the fight promotion is launching next year) so rider won't be signed and sealed but there are some promising youngsters out there, just a case of monitoring there development over next year and potentially the year after and seeing what the opportunity is, also by then depends what the regulation's are in BSB, it could be practically like Superstock by then, we'll wait and see You would think the biggest talents will be taken by the top 5/6 teams but majority is done based on what sponsorship a rider can bring, hoping there is an opportunity where a young talent who can put a decent bike around the top 10 will be available but one who doesn't have a big enough budget to attract a top team, best case scenario all round

Are these guys still actively in BSB now? Because two riders, trucks, workshop, team personnel I can see it being around the figures you've said, it's not cheap by any means The way we are potentially doing it, is transport is already sorted, workshop is already sorted, bikes are supplied FOC the man hours for prepping are already paid for, so £100k is literally for parts, entries, tyres, fuel, the rider will bring sponsorship with them which will cover crash damage We are both right, if you strip it all down to just running costs it's doable, and depending on rider you can run top 10ish to compete at the sharp end even for BSB with technical restrictions will cost double, what Honda spend alone is crazy Back in 2005 Honda and Ducati had a 350k budget for the Supersport class alone

I guess in a sense that may be accurate but I would also think they are doing it wrong or simply have money to burn to do it correctly. You can run one rider in British Superbike for £100k if you only look at bikes, entries, running costs etc basically take away the bullshiz of hospitality, trucks, huge awnings, full time paid staff etc this is also based on having the bikes prepared at no extra cost, just ran out of a van with a good size awning etc If it's a new team from scratch than its an open chequebook it really is British Superbike is potentially on the agenda for us next but as part owner not sponsor but not next year more like 2020 so hopefully they get the new circuit in northern Ireland built by then and hope they still have Assen on the calendar £100k for speedway as a budget is crazy, what does this Ged guy do as a business?

Where did you get those figures from 🙈

Hence at that figure why British Superbike is on the list above speedway 😂

Looking for a speculative figure haha

Does anyone know how much it would be to buy/lease Peterborough?

.

I got signal issues tonight so my posts are doubling doubling up up quite appropriate for speedway

Yeah that's the tweet Yeah that's the tweet

Whoever the press guy is on Twitter linked to Peterborough posted it
