dantodan 314 Posted November 1, 2012 (edited) Crowd levels this year have in my opinion looked ok but are they enough to make the promoters want to keep going? We have great promoters. They live locally and are Newcastle Diamonds fans, George goes way back as a supporter and Darryl is also highly commited he had major problems with his business a while ago and many promoters in his position would have chucked the towel in speedway-wise to concentrate totally on rebuilding their businesses. I hope they give us a sign that they will continue next year maybe by announcing a sponsor or a rider or two Edited November 1, 2012 by dantodan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Tsunami 10,219 Posted November 1, 2012 has anyone else hinted that they won't continue ??? With the comments in the Programme saying that the club had made big losses, along with practically all other PL promotions, every possible outcome has to be considered. A lot of clubs are in trouble and it would surprise me if everyone ran next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

A lot of clubs are in trouble and it would surprise me if everyone ran next year. My feelings exactly Dave. I have Posted consistantly on this. Sadly the Recession does not take in to account that Speedway people need to make some money too. With only 20% of the Cuts being effective at present - this implies that 80% are still to come. This means that there will be more than some Speedway Tracks going to the wall. We (and I include Speedway) are in for some VERY tough times ahead - we should not kid ourselves that we will be exempt from suffering problems - WE WON'T!!
