skid row 0 Posted July 3, 2008 Are tickets available to buy on the day at Coventry? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted July 3, 2008 (edited) Yes, but you might not be able to get in the grandstand if it's already full with fans who have already purchased tickets. If you're thinking of standing on the terraces you'll be okay as there is plenty of room at Brandon. More information here that you might want to read. http://www.speedway-forum.co.uk/forums/ind...showtopic=42739 Edited July 3, 2008 by Gemini Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

mikec 412 Posted July 4, 2008 So much for the masterplan of tracking Cov track experts a week on Monday - they're all either injured or out of form. Screen, Smith & Havvy on standby maybe? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted July 4, 2008 The terraces will be fine for us, many thanks. Just one more bit of advice, try and get there early because there were big queues for tickets last year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
flagrag 707 Posted July 8, 2008 Well it looks like Sky have changed their mind about broadcasting the Coventry WTC round in HD, it was announced after the brilliant British GP in HD that they would do this as well. But I have noticed that since then they have said nothing more about it and it is also not flagged as being in HD on the tv guide. I find this very disapointing after it was announced and for such a major event this should be in HD also the lighting is more than good enough at Brandon so technically no reason why it could not be done Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lis 0 Posted July 9, 2008 Just one more bit of advice, try and get there early because there were big queues for tickets last year.

invadersfan 0 Posted July 9, 2008 I always thought the team was called Great Britain???? Especially when a Scot was in the original 12 man squad. If you want to call them England then I certainly won't be supporting them!! I think it should be ENGLAND as ALL the riders are English, its just being politically correct in calling it team great britain,, Try telling tennis player Andy murray that he is british and he will tell you he is Scottish and proud. why dont the danes,norway & the swedes join together as team scandinavian I think its wrong calling it team GB due to many reasons including its losing the English flag that is disapearing quicker than the titanic due to the political correct brigade.

Hazzman 72 Posted July 9, 2008 I think it should be ENGLAND as ALL the riders are English, its just being politically correct in calling it team great britain,, It's hardly PC. The current formation of our league is a British League and they all have British passports. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
