Ipswich v Belle Vue POSF Leg 2
Sir Sidney replied to blue witch's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Mulford has the third highest Rising Star average currently - he isn't really the problem, but is made to look so by the lack of points elsewhere. -
And perhaps that sums up one of British Speedway's biggest challenges - persuading our current fan base to part with entry fees that other sports would see as a bargain. Just as an example, and not in particular to compare to football, Manchester City's ticket prices for this year ( which also vary by category of team / competition) below Adult Category A: £40-£60 Category B: £35 - £55 Category -C £30 - £50 And Manchester United Ticket categories are listed below: - Cat D £32 - £52 (cup fixtures only) - Cat -C £37 - £60 (2 x PL fixtures) - Cat B: £57 - £86 (11 x PL fixtures) - Cat A: £59 - £97 (6 x PL fixtures) Less than 1% of tickets will be priced at highest Cat A price point of £97.

Dear me, I accept that I'm tight and have difficulty parting with my hard earned...but twenty seven English pounds to stand on a terrace and watch a British speedway meeting? Mental.

They aren’t useless but Zischke and Mulford not really up to it at this level For me Blodorn is your biggest disappointment -

Have we moved it to Oxford so more Poole fans can attend or watch the stream? -

And what did she say out of interest? -
1981 is a lifetime ago when we had limited entertainment options. That is not the case anymore. Speedway fans don't travel. I think I am one of the few exceptions, but I don't fit the average speedway fan demographic. When I have attended Birmingham, Oxford or Leicester during the last two seasons I have seen very few Wolves or Coventry fans. Looking around maybe Leicester does the best out of the three venues I mentioned with maybe 20ish a meeting. If speedway fans travelled then their would be greater support at away tracks rather than a hardcore 5-30 away fans at league meetings.

Yes I even thought he may sign for Ipswich this season, he hasn't had great meetings for Poole sometimes but he always seems to find a bit extra at play off time so beware he may be on fire tomorrow! -
And I believe the car park price too

What about Northampton?
Normski replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
80mile round trip hmm. In 1981 when Berwick had no home track we had to make to begin with a 340 mile round trip to Barrow, 240 mile round trip to Workington, and a 200 mile round trip to Glasgow for our home meetings. Even now a large percentage of our fans can make a 50 - 120mile round trip for our home meetings. -

Uses the same word as Woffy, (fun). Woffinden was very complimentary about Foxhall last year and said he had a blast and was great fun to ride. Bewley hasn’t got to grips with it yet. He seems to have one or two rides a meeting where you think “he’s cracked it now”, but then follows it up looking completely lost at the back. There was heat last year where he made a stinker of a gate, but stretched the throttle cable and hunted down and passed both Emil and Ellis Loram style! Unbelievable racing. But then he went completely downhill after that and ended the meeting poorly. Leicester is a similar sized track albeit narrower, but he seems to get around there far better than Ipswich for some reason. Probably both! 😩 -

Is it the morphine or the boredom causing these hallucinations Rest up -
Don’t think you can forecast when the weather will be better in GB.Any month can be dry or wet.Promotions never want to cancel but finances dictate.Like I said on another Post riders aren’t willing to ride wet tracks or if is drizzle.Fans are wary of this and won’t turn up these days.Thats GB Speedway nowadays.
