Neil H 63 Posted October 10, 2008 Just wondering why this meeting has practically zero publicity. Shame on you BSPA and Speedway Star Mr Pearson was sent Buxton's Press Release about the event. This went out on Sunday night to all and sundry, just visit worldspeedway.com to read it . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parsloes 1928 nearly 495 Posted October 10, 2008 Mr Pearson was sent Buxton's Press Release about the event. This went out on Sunday night to all and sundry, just visit worldspeedway.com to read it . And it IS in the Star...! (see Buxton news piece on page 35 *) I guess what people are saying, though, is rather than just the staging track providing the publicity (which Buxton have of course done admirably..) that, as this is a national championship (one won previously by the likes of Josh Auty and Joe Haines - so clearly a very important thing for the future of British Speedway ) that one might've thought that it would receive publicity from the sport's governing body (if that's the word.. ) too..?? * BTW that article mentions Tom Woolley riding - can anyone confirm if he is, as I understand he did injury his collar-bone in a crash at KL last weekend..??? And any chance, from anyone of the line up...??? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
John Leslie 3,213 Posted October 10, 2008 And it IS in the Star...! (see Buxton news piece on page 35 *) So what's the line up then? My Star seems to be missing that bit. What does it say in yours? I guess what people are saying, though, is rather than just the staging track providing the publicity (which Buxton have of course done admirably..) that, as this is a national championship (one won previously by the likes of Josh Auty and Joe Haines - so clearly a very important thing for the future of British Speedway ) that one might've thought that it would receive publicity from the sport's governing body (if that's the word.. ) too..?? exactly And any chance, from anyone of the line up...??? See you don't know either, and you've read the 'admirable' publicity! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parsloes 1928 nearly 495 Posted October 10, 2008 See you don't know either, and you've read the 'admirable' publicity! Alright, alright.. We're on the same 'side' here!!! Just pointing out that Buxton have done their bit. A full line-up is something I'd expect the BSPA to be telling us... And as the meeting is tomorrow...: telling us pretty darned quickly!!!

I wonder how much of the £5M of Sky money the BSPA allocated towards running this British Championship? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crazysue 613 Posted October 10, 2008 Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the updates site? If so, could you please either leave a message here or send me an email or pm. Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Jayne 312 Posted October 10, 2008 (edited) Tom Woolley has had to withdraw from the meeting due to a broken collarbone. He is though still hoping to defend his shorttrack title next week. Line - up for tomorrow is as follows: 500cc 1 Jason Garrity 2 Scott Gibbons 3 Jack Butler 4 Joe Jacobs 5 Cameron Hoskins 6 Kyle Howarth 7 Marc Owen 8 Scott Day 9 John Resch 10 Jack Hirst 11 James Sarjeant 250cc 11 Jack Cornes 12 Daniel Sibson 13 Connor Dwyer 14 Nathan Stoneman 15 Tyler Govier 16 Rhys Naylor 17 Lloyd Barrett 18 Brandon Freemantle 19 Daniel I'anson 20 Ben Morley Should be a cracking meeting as there are plenty of talented youngsters taking part. Weather has been fine here from Wednesday onwards and it is sunny today. Hopefully the weather will be kind to us tomorrow.

pudding 0 Posted October 10, 2008 in the 500cc number 6 is kyle haworth he only started speedway 3 month ago .. but going really well he's a really nice lad with a good supportive family around him i hope they have a good day at the race's Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Parsloes 1928 nearly 495 Posted October 10, 2008 (edited) 500cc class Jason GARRITY 14 16 14 44 1st 30 John RESCH 18 14 11 43 2nd 32 James SARJEANT 11 18 12 41 3rd 30 Joseph JACOBS 12 10 16 38 4th 28 Cameron HOSKINS 9 11 8 28 5th 20 Scott DAY 6 8 10 24 6th 18 Jack HIRST 8 12 20 7th 20 Jack BUTLER 10 9 19 8th 19 Marc OWEN 18 18 18 9th Scott GIBBONS 9 7 16 11th 16 Kyle Haworth not ridden yet Right, the above might help clarify things going into tomorrow's final round!! The 10 riders in blue are riding tomorrow in the 500cc class. Where a score is shown in red this is that rider's current lowest score and this rider will be doing all four rounds and has to getison his lowest score. The one shown, of course, may NOT end up his lowest score as that could happen in Round Four! The others have missed at least one round and so their score tomorrow will definitely count towards their final score. The total underlined is their actual total but in most cases this will need to be adjusted by the loss of one score of course. The far right hand column shows their current indicative score arrived at by deducting the current lowest score where applicable. VERY close, so should be a very exciting afternoon's racing!!!

Jayne 312 Posted October 10, 2008 in the 500cc number 6 is kyle haworth he only started speedway 3 month ago .. but going really well he's a really nice lad with a good supportive family around him i hope they have a good day at the race's Sorry Pudding I know it's Kyle and not Tyler. I just copied the line-up from the email sent by the office but the programme is correct. Kyle has ridden at Buxton a few times and as you say is doing well considering his lack of experience.
