A lot more than that for seats on the straight close to the action purchased on early deal basis. As we know the ticket pricing escalated over the past years, the firework show diminished to a fizzle, No pre meeting or half time entertainment in the stadium which all contributed to a feeling that for the ever increasing cost of tickets the overall value of what was on offer did nothing but fall. -
It depends who you speak to. Race night is an issue. The preference is to keep Fridays. How strong that preference is varies a little. But at the moment, the Premiership does not have enough upside to mess with a setup they seem to be happy with (crowd numbers, mainly).

Glasgow v Redcar BSN semi final first leg 19/9/25@7:30pm
Paulco replied to Paulco's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Main problem is I don't know much about track prep but our track seems much slicker since Meredith took over as track man . That doesn't suit us since we have lost the ability to gate . But fair play to Redcar they are a solid side throughout and we got away with it last night to a certain extent -
100 % agree,we have to do whatās right for speedway in Uk.Its pretty obvious we canāt compete with Poland.

The championship league hold all the aces,they stand together and they can control the way things go,I would love to regularly watch grand prix riders at poole but that's not going to be possible in british speedway anymore,need a structure that works for british speedway and that won't include gp riders,if bv and ipswich got to have them, then just have to race against each other

I thought Jack Holder was excellent for Tigers, he didn't get the points for his efforts and left it all out on the track, not bad for a GP rider with an Ekstraliga final coming up to put that kind of effort in for a tin pot league championship. I've said before, I quite like his cocky arrogance when he's won a race, it gets a reaction from people.

Would agree only thing I see is they are heavily involved in Sponsership and are prominent people in the Management of the sport now.Race night is a major stumbling for Glasgow and Poole + financially viable if having to pay big money for Major Heatleaders.Hope Championship tells them where too go.Rider availability and guests needs sorted out though.

I think Nick Morris would be a steal for Poole in 2026 at his current GSA as of 1/9 at 6.62 or even his British Speedway 2025 av of 6.76 from 7 matches since his return from that long ban. His finishing GSA for 2023 (his last season before ban) was 8.82 for Birmingham. he has been riding himself back to fitness and his current GSA is arguably 2 points below his potential and still only 31. I reckon he will be in demand but being Southern based (Swindon way ??) he will be in demand. Saying that probably find that Oxford will go for him if they keep current format in Champ in 2026.

I would be very surprised if Glasgow were to move up i think they have mentioned in the past they are not interested.

Yes, I got a similar deal. Actually an early bird deal on a £20 ticket which cost me £18. I never understood the ticket pricing at Cardiff. 20K-30K fans paying a fairly modest GP ticket price (say £30-£40) would surely have made that meeting financially viable? We certainly didn't pay £20 for a ticket to go to the NSS did we? Yes I know all about the quality of the racing and I agree. In fact racing wise I think the Friday meeting this year is up there as one of the best GPs ever. I do worry about the future at the NSS. I can only see them getting one GP next year and to make that pay with all the costs involved could lead to tickets well over £100. Wait for the comments when that's announced. For me, the original plan of one GP in Cardiff and one at the NSS was perfect. A great day/weekend in Cardiff and a top meeting on one of the best circuits (the best?) in the world was something to savour.
