I saw this meme on Twitter, thought it quite nicely sums up British Speedway

The budget didn't stretch, either, to meeting-specific race jackets (though I see the British Final managed some). The mostly bodged 1-18 numbers attached to the rear of the individual team kevlars on display at Owlerton were laughable. They screamed 'small time'.

You aren't supposed to notice! http://www.speedwaygb.co.uk/news.php?extend.37360

Although on a similar note, how difficult is it to have a picture where all 3 riders are looking at the camera? Exactly the same for the British Final. With the NL Pairs all 6 riders were.. we just have a random chap stood in the background also looking!

Nothing smacks of professionalism any more in UK speedway, except Speedway Star and Jeff Davies

It never does.  I seriously can't remember the PLRC having proper race jackets - ever.

Me either - and i always  saw it as a club representation thing anyway as much as the rider.

Have a care. You can't expect Ellis Perks to ride in 3 major championships on consecutive days

The way the sport is promoted in this country  i doubt if there will be many riders of the calibre of the Polish league riding here soon

Probably in their eyes more cost effective to be owed £2-3K per meeting by your Polish club than £500-£750 by your British one
