Yes. Riders pulling out of meetings because they're not doing well is taking the piss out of paying fans.

You're hearing wrong then! Just because I don't go to the 80-odd meetings I did from 06-10 doesn't mean I don't go any more.

And going to loads of meeting would have made my opinion all the more valid? This is speedway problem, it listens to the people who attend meetings, the people who put up with the crap, who seem to like music from the 60s and announcers from the 50s, people who don't care about rules being broken and meetings dragging on, people who seem to accept being treated like mugs. What the sport should be doing is speaking to people who either don't go at all or who rarely go to find out what would make them attend.

It annoys me to say it but on this one you're right - I may have jumped the gun with Bomber as he's not riding today either. Sadly it looks like I tainted Bomber based on the standards of many others.

Nice to hear it. Not all riders pull flankers on a whim.

Not all forum members admit it when they are wrong either.

Well done SCB

tbf "scb admits he was wrong" is nowhere near as "limited edition" as "starman was right" Edited March 23, 2015 by waihekeaces1

Every thing here absolutely spot on.

Janowski won the meeting but didn't win the title. Why do we have to have a semi-final and final ??

 

Bring back the good old days when getting the most points from your five rides was good enough.

Ignoring the issues of pull outs and formats can anyone tell us who went if it was a good meeting and what the crowd like ?
