BT are absolute useless. I took out a subscription with BT last year mainly to watch Speedway My subscriptions were 1st,2nd 3rd months £0.00 4th,5th and 6 month £25.00 a month Then 7th,8th and 9th month £27.50 10th month (now for February) £34.00 so 4 different prices in 10 months so I cancelled on Monday They could not tell me if there would be any League speedway and although I paid 34.00 on Monday it was cut off later on in the evening .I had the choice of seeing out my contract which would cost another £96.00 or cancelling now and costing me £60.00 so I took the latter. It is terrible that they and other internet companies can just raise the prices without any notification BT sport coverage is very good , but in my opinion as a company they are a bunch of shysters. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mike1944 151 Posted February 7, 2018 BT sport do at least show other motor bike racing as well as speedway which is a damn sight more than BBC does apart from F1. Sky Sports are only mainly interested on games played with a ball. I cannot ever see Sky Sports taking speedway back. Speedway does need to get its act together and make speedway attractive to TV at the present time they do very little, year in year out, to make it in any way attractive to anyone whether it be the TV viewer of the spectator who attends the meetings Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Depends what you call honest....like I've said...thousands and thousands of people commit varying offences on a daily basis...some get caught some don't.... I bet even you commit an offence pretty regularly....as soon as I get in my car very day I commit more than one offence...but I am a little rascal and enjoy getting away with as much as I can.

You portray a freeloader much more than a little rascal. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm sure BT have given priority to this and the speedway deal will be revealed in good time (sometime after). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hrhbig 69 Posted February 7, 2018 According to what I have read BT are not happy at the moment with subscribers leaving, and the company on dodgy ground as they paid too much for Football rights, causing them to struggling a bit financially, so cant honestly see them doing anything about Speedway coverage until the decision is made about the Footy, but equally I could be totally wrong...hope so.

Baldyman 6,243 Posted February 7, 2018 (edited) I wouldn't be surprised if even someone as judgmental as yourself committed at least one offence today..if not today then very very recently..and I bet you didn't even think twice about doing it...and will do it again very very soon.

Seriously, what is your point? You openly stated you don’t pay your way and enjoy breaking as many laws as possible. Nothing to do with being judgmental. You clearly explained your standards.

Baldyman 6,243 Posted February 7, 2018 I openly admit I commit offences nearly every day of the week...but like I said..I dare say you do as well...you ain't no better than me, although you obviously think you are. Anyway..I shall leave it there...Nice playing with you Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
