You should apply for a job with the government the cost savings you could make would be colossal. Impressive stuff. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Exactly!,,, I do at this present time hold a position within local government, the move to central government would be easy IMO, if I wished too.

You should use your influence to get the rent at Brough reduced. Then it snowballs down the chain and the riders can then do their lap of honour after a heat win, To be fair they are saving on that as the heat wins are scarce. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hmmm, dunno,,, think it's like walking on eggs shells with them, especially if talking about money. But a did manage to ease a part of our requirements and hopefully will endeavour to make our stay there more pleasurable, thanks. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Glasgow should be submerged with requests from riders then. My mate who is in the Flat Earth Society is adamant its downhill all the way home in neutral. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Nothing on website I only knew was on from bspl website If you were on their mailing list you would have got an email on Wednesday 25th promoting it. It was also advertised on official Twitter and Facebook. As you missed all that, FYI Glasgow are staging an international test match GB v rest of the world on Saturday 9th July 3pm start 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

So as I said poorly promoted as missed a large part of the support who, like me are in the same boat. Do you think there will be no announcement on the website or nationwide about that meeting? It's the first issue I've had in this regard, indeed has been no release on website since the Poole draw, not even a quote following the win at Berwick. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't go wrong with 32 heats for a tenner. Not sure why more people weren't interested to be honest. You're right about it being a dust bowl! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The youth championship was in the fixture list at the start of the season. It's been in the programme every week. It was announced multiple times at the track v. Poole. Agree it's poor the websites is not updated regularly but the meeting was well advertised elsewhere 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
