Monday may be their night for showing it but one meeting hardly makes it a TV night. Far more important for the survival of the sport is that clubs are able to run on whichever night is the best for them. The facts make clear that isn't Monday otherwise clubs would have been queuing up run on that night before FNR and nearly every club avoided it like the plague. My only point to the TV companies and casual viewer that Monday was and is Speedway nite, league wise. There is a bigger picture obviously. TV SHOULD have made it a vital night for the sport.

FAST GATER 847 Posted August 30, 2018 (edited) Fix Nights is to suit the riders ,tv and the promoters NOT the fans and which premier club is Tai riding for on Monday night if it's so great ,like most riders it's about the money ( which I have no problem with ) which decides where top riders decide to ply their trade !

The key problem is that British Speedway seems not to be run on "any lines" at all, basic or otherwise. They make knee-jerk reactions to any developing situations which are ill-conceived and poorly thought through. Or not thought through at all. Changing the league set up once again, as rumoured, is not going to attract a new generation of fans all by itself is it? Why would it, as nothing in the entertainment served up on track will change. And nobody in the outside world will know about it anyway. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
