stevebrum 6,821 Posted December 2, 2014 wonder if the Bees Promotion could have got Tai to change his mind & ride in the UK after all then ? Yes of course. PMSFL Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
deanr1 203 Posted December 2, 2014 £18 is expensive but the reality is there is no money in British speedway, it costs a lot to run a meeting and with only small crowds that means the entry prices have to be high to make it anywhere near viable. If Mick charged us all £15 we would probably not have a competitive side or worse than that no speedway at all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crazy robin 2,963 Posted December 2, 2014 Howarth has signed for Swindon. Incidentally, the Bees look good so far I reckon. Rosco stated last week that no riders have signed for Swindon apart from the reserves. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
thecoombdog 2,367 Posted December 2, 2014 Any chance of Jason Doyle signing for Cov ? None at all. Leicester bound. Rosco stated last week that no riders have signed for Swindon apart from the reserves. I dont think hes telling the truth! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How do you work that out ? buy charging more the crowds could dip meaning that you don't bring more money in . With speedway in a poor way and people's wages static this is a really poor move from Horton . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With speedway in a poor way and people's wages static this is a really poor move from Horton . Other clubs will probably follow suit. I personally don't mind as it's cheaper for kids at Brandon than most other places. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Crowds will dip more if you have a crap team that's for sure, even the mighty Pirates found that out a few years ago when they were struggling at the bottom of the league. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Woz01 3,589 Posted December 2, 2014 You better hope then! 18 quid to see Lahti, no ta. He isn't that great at Brandon either, it would be a strange signing. It will either be a new 5pt rider or either Summers/Robson Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bee 26 426 Posted December 2, 2014 Don't fancy paying £18 to see Summers either! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
