Unlike most I'm not playing a game of guess who on a Speedway Forum when the Coronavirus is putting the world on lockdown. All I will say is when I post a video on here revealing my identity then you will be left with egg on your face. I'm leaving it at that because I don't need to have a back and forth. Even involved in Peterborough speedway you wouldn't be posting a lot of crap, especially with buster as owner like I've said grow up . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Therefore they will still need ambulance cover..... interesting Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Interesting thing about medical cover as racing is to continue in this country so why not speedway as well which certainly need medical cover Edited March 16, 2020 by mickthemuppet Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Speedtiger 327 Posted March 16, 2020 Just read that the 2020 Isle of Man TT has been cancelled. Expect a similar decision by BSPA-SCB tomorrow. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
old bob at herne bay 828 Posted March 16, 2020 Horses cannot catch Corona Virus I guess ... the vets can treat any injured jockeys ..... one rule for some and another for the toffs who run “horsey“ sports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Think you'll find, the betting industry is financially covering any medical cover if needed, can't have gamblers not able to feed their habit now can we!! All of the other "horsey" events have been cancelled. Edited March 16, 2020 by Badge Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Which just goes to show they had already made the decision last week if they are letting riders leave the country. As always the authorities assume the public are stupid.

Byker Biker 468 Posted March 16, 2020 9 hours ago, stevebrum said: What utter codswallop and you know it. Unless they have relatives who are elderly and vulnerable they don’t ‘need caring for’. The riders must have been told they won’t be racing for their clubs till at least April which begs the question why aren’t the fans being told this instead of this secrecy of a meeting tomorrow that will update fans on the current situation. By all accounts we all know the season isn’t starting this week if riders are being allowed to isolate so this isn’t going to be any new news. Most people will have guessed all this anyway, even you. I'm with you, unforgivable that the BSPA have created a virus so that they can achieve their own agenda! I thought they'd stop after they were deemed responsible for the climate change that rained off so many key meetings. J Arthur Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes I had the same and had to buy out my contract with B.T,I complained a few times and got it reduced but they are all the same now.I am on EE mobile and get BT sports for £15 a month which I can stream to my TV and it is a rolling contract on a month to month basis and can cancel at anytime. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
