why start running meetings in the summer , when everyone knows its a winter sport ?

Bring your own food and booze, etc.. a few of whom have never been to a track before… but after watching decide to join his mate at their local track. It can work both ways.
You can either sit back and do nothing “out of fear” or try something new. The sit back and do nothing approach hasn’t worked so far, so I applaud this new venture and hope it provides a catalyst to grow the sport.
you have just saved bo jo s job @ number 10 . it was a speedway meeting he was streaming !

I think that they are hoping to create a core of viewers who will subscribe to all the meetings being shown and making their money that way, rather than hoping that 10 or 12 people will be interested enough in an away meeting that they will pay-as-they-go.
How does this postcode recognition work? Do people who are within a given distance get charged the same price for the stream as they would at the gate to deter the lazy stay-at-homes, and those from a distance away get it cheaper? What technology prevents illegal rebroadcasts per what happens with Polish & Swedish TV streams?
price wise , people will always want it cheaper , whatever the product .
i for one would use the stream .the post code thing . that is something the Edinburgh promo did . ask a monarch/Glasgow fan on here . allowing away fans and people like myself to follow a meeting where their team or some other teams were involved in . the monarchs promo had a certain milage from the track to your house .your post code told them your location . i dont see a problem with this stream .
its like workington fans wanting to stream a northside meeting lol .
do you get it now ? DOH
you know its for the greater good .

i would rather pay for the stream and support this offer of watching UK speedway
the danish , and other variation of speedway meetings abroad do not interest me at all , but thanks anyway .
lets hope it isnt too overpriced .
-
when you reg with the streams and put in yer details bank stuff n post code . you will have to be a certain distance from the track that will be streaming the event . Glasgow/Edinburgh done this i believe , so no impact on the gate . i i streamed a few fra Glasgow and Edinburgh . the Ashfield ones were the best , where as the Edinburgh ones were were 1990s quality . OOPPSS
-
i think the supporters of teams/tracks no longer in operation could out number the supporters of todays tracks still running in paying for this service .

maybe blobby is correct !

13 hours ago, HenryW said:They are a fairly big player in online sports streaming in a few Countries...They started out in Germany, Austria and Switzerland but now have services available in most Countries, although what sports are available depends on the Country.
In the UK I think they currently only have Boxing and Women's Football. I guess that they are looking to expand that by taking over the rights that BT currently have.
so no chance of speedway as its a p/poor sport in relation to others like chess and snow volley ball . ( yes , it does exist )

will you be following your none team in 2022 ?

4 hours ago, Vic Meldrew said:On the "Morning Live" programme they simply refer to the rider as "Mike" - he sadly died of a brain tumour a short while ago. A pair of boots and metal shoe are shown and a short clip of four riders racing around a bend - not sure of the track - could be Canterbury ? Mke's wife says that he rode between 1975 and 1978. I did not recognise him from the photo they showed.
could it be Mike Sampson ?

looks like they are still using that rulebook . thats progress for ya .
just found out the item they are going to repair is a box . you know the type that cricketers and speedway riders wear to protect their jewels . wonder who is going to work on that little item ? face masks will be mandatory .

From what I saw of him he was a brilliant rider and always give it his all... If a little angry at times. I have never really known why I didn't like him as much as other riders... I just didn't... Come back Claus!!
prob moaned too much while he was at work riding his bike ., even when he was off it as well .
just my thoughts of course .
