Phil Morris has the sport at heart and wasn't allowed to do what he wanted with British Speedway by the clowns who run the sport , mainly that w anchor Godfrey at Scunthorpe. How the hell he got into such a high up position is anybodys guess.

Typical short-sighted view. County cricket continue to stream every game for free on YouTube, last week's first round of the season getting just under 1.4 million views across the four days. Speedway is similar in terms of having regular natural breaks in play, it would be a perfect opportunity to sell sponsorship for between races. -

Weve just been going round in circles with these posts for the past 4 months now havent we.. I know its opinion and its a forum, its what its for. But it does get tedious reading the same old stuff, just re-worded. Please dont insult me by saying "well dont read it then if you dont like it".. its a forum, we're gonna read all the posts arent we, to keep up to date. All the best guys, David -

But at all levels of organised sport, you're going to get a large and probably growing contingent amongst the owners, directors, sponsors, benefactors etc who do it to help fulfil their own ego and vanity, and/or have vested, personal interests as their main motivation such as the promotion of their own business interests. Being able to brag at their golf club on on expensive holidays about how much money they're putting into whatever sport club as way of saying "look how rich i am, aren't I wonderful". I don't know if these come into the category of "hobbyists" (or vice-versa). Is it actually possible to have these kind on involvements whilst being entirely altruistic and its probably impossible to differentiate - motivation for involvement differing vastly. So in terms of the owners of UK speedway clubs, is it more a case of those who behave primarily with a narrow-focus, versus those who are more "bigger picture" oriented, irrespective of whether they could be classified as "hobbyists" or "business focussed", or whatever? -

I expect a routine fairly easy win tonight but this is speedway and what you expect doesnt always happen. Picko will score plenty and Simon Lambert has had good meetings at Poole but cant really see it being too tricky especially with local boy Kyle Newman going so well, he should be kept in my opinion.
