On the other hand once the team is announced the club will have little to say until the fixture list is released- it’s a difficult one name the 6 riders in one hit and interest slides over the winter or drag it releasing names every few weeks and keep people taking about the sport either way it’s a long time to the opening meeting . As much as any team announcements admission prices will be crucial I see Sheffield is going to be £22 plus £3 for program-price things too high it drive more fans away - Gas Electric and Food will come way before a night at. the speedway in 2023 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Do some giveaways, some interviews with riders, look at the history of each rider, some stats on how each rider goes at Lynn there are a lot of options for things they can do during the off season. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can't please everyone. As for prices, I'd like to think they won't stick any more than a pound on, two quid will put folk off and make them pick and choose even more. Or stop them buying food drink and programmes, which I suspect will all go up too. Probably the best way to get people there every week is to provide good racing and a winning team....over to you Mr Brady. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old bob at herne bay 828 Posted November 30, 2022 Doesn’t need a marketing manager to pen a weekly article about something or other……use some journalistic license to invent some potential stories… sure the Kings Lynn echo would be happy to print some “scandal” to attract readers interest. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
