It doesn’t matter if it’s old fans coming back or new fans coming for the first time; if the racing is rubbish they won’t come again.

Swindon bit the bullet, redesigned their track and the racing has improved.

Every track that currently doesn’t work needs to do that.

If only all the promoters had the cash and the authorisation to do this . Pipe dream

Basically another New Yawn then for suporters. Who won't be able to see live matches on Eurosport free to air. I cannot see the progress in that TV deal.

The teams that pay them, however, most certainly are and what we cannot have is a situation where clubs are put at risk simply so that riders can use the sport as a full time occupation. 

Hear, hear. Given modern British speedway's crowds - many counted in hundreds rather than thousands - it's ludicrous any participant should expect the sport to be a full time occupation.

Some of them - Chris Harris, Scott Nicholls spring to mind - were able to ride speedway for years without doubling up.

The only thing that has changed is that they have seen a way to substantially increase earnings.   

Those two 15 years ago, did they have time to double up in the UK?

Will one issue be enough for that? ;)
