Maybe just for Southern tracks then where the weather may be a little kinder?! (Its definitely being discussed!!) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

craigACE 91 Posted April 30, 2020 Sort around the hurdles and hope the weather is ok then yeah. Have to do everything to get some action. When people come out with different ideas i say, We should listen. Especially when we know how many weeks we do have. We are all desperate to get underway.(apart from the excellent Ben fund that has already happened). Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Norfolk Bear 250 Posted April 30, 2020 I personally doubt we will see any live league racing this year. It will need a massive change to social distancing. The same with football, they are only going behind closed doors because of greed. Without the gate money we cannot run Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Far better to have clubs go to the wall and more people made unemployed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
craigACE 91 Posted April 30, 2020 Looks as though lower football and Rugby League are going to stream fixtures. If Speedway did the same. I as a Aces fan would pay per-view, Home and away. Season ticket holders could stream home meetings free. The downside would be, Has every supporter got access ?. A family would share. For me it could work if EVERY fan who would have attended go ahead with a stream. There would be no programmes printed so no losses there. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have attended winter meetings in the amateur speedway: at Scunthorpe! This country isn't Alaska, you can have good days in January, just as much as midsummer. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
The Cheese 2,022 Posted May 1, 2020 There's every chance we'll be back/still in lockdown in the winter anyway. Thousands die from flu/pneumonia, all it needs is a few hundred of them being listed as Covid and people will start demanding it again. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
00000 1,279 Posted May 1, 2020 At least Eastbourne Speedway will know what their fans think about going to speedway, when events are allowed. They are asking supporters for their views. How wise. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
