No Double Points On Final ? Better Or Worse?
Daniel Smith replied to Mixy230's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Being last should never be rewarded IMO. Imagine the last round in 2012 @ Torun & Holder only needed a point to win the title. It would be an absolute farce to watch a rider trundle round at the back. Regardless of a final or not, last places should always score zero. -
Easter Monday-why No Fixtures
Daniel Smith replied to mickthemuppet's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
We had Good Friday & Saturday, why shouldn't Poland have Sunday /Monday or Sweden & Denmark. They don't owe us anything. The most annoying thing with British Speedway is people think we should have automatic rights reserved for every date available. We really can be such a selfish Country sometimes -

No Gps On Sky Television Next Year?
Daniel Smith replied to The White Knight's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Can't believe you just said that. The GP's are live a peak times. Most often both Eurosport channels show live sport on a Saturday evenings and I genuinely fear for the Speedway if and when it over runs. -
No Gps On Sky Television Next Year?
Daniel Smith replied to The White Knight's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I'm reserving some judgment of Eurosport. Being 3am there was never a chance of clashing. Wait to see what happens when it over runs and another live event is scheduled after. At least with Sky a clash could be moved to the red button option -

Daniel Smith replied to David Haddock's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
He's proved it, won't be World Champ but he IS ready for the GP challenge. Correct choice for the Brit Wild Card -

How To Make Speedway More Appealing To Younger Fans?
Daniel Smith replied to speedwayadict's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I love the way people know what kids want without even asking them Regarding my 2 nephew's who attend (12 & 9) & a friends niece & nephew ( both 11) what they want is very simple Keep thing's moving. The constant waiting around between races is difficult for them. That is pretty much it. They still do what I use to do, speak to riders, food & drink, watch the racing but the best bit for them? The freedom to move around the stadium & meeting up with other kids. People these days think technology is the way forward, it isn't. It's knowing how to keep youngsters engaged. -

I've noticed the Speedway has been removed from the UK Eurosport TV schedule????? -
Fast Freddie Challenge - Sunday 10th March, 5pm @ Monmore Green
Daniel Smith replied to Fast Freddie Challenge's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Why's that??? It's what he said but the lad is an awesome talent to win on borrowed equipment & it seems the track was also in poor condition. This kid is something this sport needs. Someone just needs to keep him out of trouble. -
Fast Freddie Challenge - Sunday 10th March, 5pm @ Monmore Green
Daniel Smith replied to Fast Freddie Challenge's topic in Speedway Testimonials & Individual and Shared Events
Darcy has said on Twitter "Don't expect to much out of me tonight at #FastFreddieChallenge . Cause you won't see it. #steadyon" We all know riders do it but to say it before hand is harsh on Freddie and paying spectators -
Speedway On Eurosport
Daniel Smith replied to michaelcroucher's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Sky's basic entertainment package is £21.50 per Month. Expensive if you're just after Eurosport. -
King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
The best bit of evasive action last night was heat 10 when Woffinden held a wheelie over the back wheel of Iversen down the back straight. Some serious skill from Tai not to make contact. That would otherwise have been messy for two GP riders. -
King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
just you wait and see. The Panthers will be caged and the Stars will light up the night sky from victory come end of day. One things for sure, both sets of fans can't wait -
Some people are hard to please. People who say it won't work because it will be old news before it reach the shelves are talking nonsense. Almost every magazine out there is exactly the same. Playstation, Xbox, FHM, Esquire, Nuts, Fast Ford, Total Vauxhall etc etc etc all has content you can find elsewhere for free but they still sell 1000's each time. There is no reason why Inside Speedway & Speedway Star can't work side by side and maybe on odd occasions together. I recommend everybody (even Phil Rising) purchase the first addition and look for themselves before criticising something they've never seen. Week after week we hear speedway needs more coverage, promoting blah blah blah yet someone tries to move thing forward positively yet Speedway Forum members can't wait to trample all over it, brilliant - give yourselves a pat on the back. Good luck Inside Speedway & Speedway Star. Regardless of opinion of some this sport strongly needs you to survive

King's Lynn Stars 2013
Daniel Smith replied to Daniel Smith's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
After tonight's meeting I have to say, this team we have assembled looks to have very very good potential. Was very impressed with all of them, especially Kindt, Stead, Kozza & Alden. They should wee all over their starting averages. -

Darcy Showing What A Pro He Is Again
Daniel Smith replied to speedibee's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Someone needs to have a word with the start marshall, this thread seems to have completed more than 4 laps of the same & it's still continuing Darcy is here, will ride GP's, EL etc so it's end of story -
No Gps On Sky Television Next Year?
Daniel Smith replied to The White Knight's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
Yep, has to be Live for me too. I tend to Sky+ & watch about an hour or two behind just to blitz through adverts & ramblings. If anything is beyond the Live feed the result is already known and the interest is lost to watch isn't there. -
