Depends which track you go to... Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I was at the 1962 Wembley final, when peter Craven won, 70,000 that night, awesome atmosphere! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Jonny the spud 2,281 Posted March 7, 2018 Great, 99% of riders have their covers and kevlars sorted, I wonder how many have lost out on sponsorship as there's been no TV announcement ? You really have to wonder how a sport can continuously shoot itself in the foot......... Then shoot itself in the other foot just to be sure? 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Perfect time in the summer break to sort out an agenda and make plans for the following season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No point waiting and arguing and then we're at season start Don't they use that break already to bodge the rules back together that they have previously made a mess of at the last AGM, changing rules mid season, in preparation for the play offs and end of season run ins?

DC2 11,150 Posted March 8, 2018 Just in the interests of consumer bargaining power, within a five minute phone call BT offered me renewal at £49.99 (18 month contract), then £46.99 (12 month contract), then £41.99 (12 month with discount), for Infinity 2 fibre broadband (55-77mbs, though actually 34 closest to the router and 20 in the bedrooms) & entertainment plus TV (which includes the two Eurosport channels), HD and BT sports. Pretty happy with that compared to the £113 I paid to Sky/BT a couple of years ago. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
