flagrag 705 Posted December 4, 2013 Oh dear British Speedway promotors drop themselves in it again and annoy their broadcast partner just days after agreeing a new deal. I can tell you this slip up has not gone down well at Sky sports as they were not ready to announce the deal today as wanted to produce proper press releases and create some spin. The plan was to feature the deal on Sky sports news and a couple of rider interviews likely to have been Woofy and Nicholls. Nevermind it's done now Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

pugwash 3,208 Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) The 'Ronseal Speedway Elite League' sounds good. They could do a tv ad with Tony Steele painting damp proofing on the Belle Vue track and Red Tel painting the kerb orange, whilst Big Ron reassures us that " It does exactly what it says on the tin".

Oh blast those darn peasants at BSPA blabbing their silly mouths, we could've dressed this up nicely and duped those silly fools into thinking they owe RM their gratitude and we'll all get juicy bonuses. Not promoters. Promoter. Matt Ford. Massive .......... on a big ego trip. You can fill in the blanks. Prize for the best 1 is tba.

John Leslie 3,213 Posted December 4, 2013 Richard Branson was going to be the sponsor. It was going to be the Virgin Elite League.....but with Matt Ford around it was only a matter of time until there was a cock up. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

flagrag 705 Posted December 4, 2013 (edited) I think some of the brands mentioned on here for sponsors are very funny but think it may all be PIE in the Sky if rumours I have been hearing are correct. Edited December 4, 2013 by flagrag Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
