ch958 2,387 Posted November 23, 2017 So a single T/S replaces a double points T/R!!. I'll just stand back and watch the stadia fill up across the country no single thing will fill the stands but this is better. the thing that stops the stands being filled most of all is Poland and Sweden dominating the sport financially and being able to attract the worlds best we could try to attract big names but it would be financial suicide unless crowds tripled overnight and that won't happen all we can do is reposition the sport and try to develop UK talent. Track surface/ tyre interface research might be a good idea too. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think everyone on this Forum knows my views on Double Points moxey63. Anyway - I'm happy now - I am returning to certain Speedway Tracks for Meetings again. I would not have done that had Double Points remained. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsunami 10,219 Posted November 23, 2017 You're good... will you be my solicitor? NO, I would have difficulty defending a liar. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Dave Jones 2,119 Posted November 23, 2017 NO, I would have difficulty defending a liar. But you regularly defend the bunch that run british speedway. So you are obviously experienced in the matter. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

DSC67 1,452 Posted November 23, 2017 Does this now mean that riders won't have to have a minimum of 3 rides each ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsunami 10,219 Posted November 23, 2017 LOL You will be telling me next that they are all forthright & upstanding individuals.. No, cos that would be worse than your first response. I was hoping for an improvement on it, not a deterioration. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can't see too much wrong in my earlier post For many years now you have been quick to defend your buddies against criticism on this forum , even when the overwhelming evidence suggests otherwise. There are so many examples of dishonesty from the people in control , yet you continue to defend them. The important thing to remember is that despite the fact that the " goings on" at the bspa are shrouded in secrecy many fans have the ability to work things out, and your continual protestations do you no favours. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
waiheke1 4,295 Posted November 24, 2017 Does this now mean that riders won't have to have a minimum of 3 rides each ?I would expect they still will. Minimum rides being one less than scheduled rides seems right. It was only brought in for SKY - certainly NOT for the good of the Sport.I thought the pretty much unanimous consensus was that it was a cost saving measure as opposed to the ts rule it replaced?

moxey63 1,784 Posted November 24, 2017 NO, I would have difficulty defending a liar. Please, PM me and tell me where I lied. I do lie, not denying that, but I can't remember this time... and think I may be losing my memory. And anyhow, bit of a mard excuse to try to win an argument, me telling tales. Please find proof where I lied.. this time anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
