We will be producing a 64-page pre-season special next week and have also taken the plunge and increased the paper quality which we previously changed to keep us afloat. Any news on a follow up to the Somerset story? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

NOT that I know but I am no longer involved with the day-to-day compilation of the content. But, had there been, no doubt Andrew Skeels and his team would have been on the case.

I have definitely had it delivered by NewsTeam since you changed - ie no wrapper/address. In SS it says that Number is available 9am- 2.30 .I assume week days.Dave is great at dealing with subs ect,very efficient. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It’s a platform to talk about issues with the Star and comment on the contents of the magazine, which overall has maintained a high standard through thick and thin. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
auntie doris 2,339 Posted May 13, 2021 (edited) A good read but not quite the bumper edition of 2 years ago with the Covid affecting the sport. Not the same without the top 2 Swindon and Poole, and Zummerzet, only 6 teams. Edited May 13, 2021 by auntie doris Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
moxey63 1,785 Posted May 13, 2021 Always impressed with the pre-season special. On the flip side, got withdrawals because there are no nostalgia articles. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

00000 1,279 Posted May 13, 2021 Excellent season preview edition. It will take some time to read it all; the 64 pages are packed with content and the presentation and design is superb. Top job by everyone at the Star and as Phil Lanning pointed out on social media, for less than a coffee at a High Street national chain. I would add to that: where the claim to be coffee is debatable. No debate about this week's Speedway Star...in fact, it is five stars! 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Cracking bumper issue, always my favourite. Credit to all those who take the time and effort to make it all happen. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I kinda miss having the teams in the order they are predicted by each clubs fan/media. But that is just me being picky! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
