Sad bit is it’s astonishing at how much they put in the club and how much they are losing. No a great business! i thought Glasgow were making a profit . gates going up week on week !

Great film, PR machine credited as being the best in speedway, presentation is the best, all in all - Glasgow is what we should all aspire to. But ....losing money Edited April 14, 2020 by Richard Weston 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Bagpuss 10,783 Posted April 14, 2020 (edited) Well I found that to be a great hour and a half’s watch, really enjoyed it. The main thing I got from it was the family’s desire to give something back to the area in which they grew up. I’ve not been since 2009 and what a transformation the stadium and track has undergone, and what a professional outfit the club is. The best bit was the visit to the home of the bloke with the track in his garden Just one criticism, not enough Paulco Edited April 15, 2020 by Bagpuss 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
highroad119 101 Posted April 14, 2020 Crowds have improved recently(2019) as the track improvements have produced better racing. First time visitors more likely to return if the racings like last year. Still room for improvement with lengthy tractor breaks and presentation but its really dream land for us just now. Very few huge home wins maybe shows how fair the tracks now become too. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wessex Wanderer 148 Posted April 16, 2020 One of the best Speedway videos I have seen. Struck the perfect balance between racing and the human element. Every track should strive to match the way this promotion treats its customers whilst maintaining a professional approach and a desire to win without having the extreme “win at all costs” attitude which pervades too many tracks these days. It was a bit like going back before the “me” culture of the mid 1980’s kicked off the rot which has led to a steady decline in the sport ever since. good luck to the Glasgow organisation, they deserve all the success possible. Any locals who see this will surely be tempted to go along to sample what is on offer themselves. And that my friends is what should be the absolute priority of ALL promoters. 7 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Hacksaw Jim Duggan 199 Posted April 16, 2020 I thought the documentary was pretty awful, there is just far too much content around to compare it against to suggest it was close to good or fantastic. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Honestly You would think that though wouldn't you because you are just an antagonistic A-wipe who should crawl back under your rock... So now you have had a bite you can "pull the heed of the chicken" and give yourself your cheap thrill... and move on... A total tool... who talks complete and utter keache... What people have mainly expressed is how they are impressed with the effort and support to the local community the promotion put in and how they are promoting the club and supporting speedway... genuine positive comments about a genuine club and genuine people... Best laugh is I bet you haven't watched the documentary you have just made the comment for effect... Sooner the schools go back the better...
