From my perspective. If it wasn't on somewhere i could access easily and free i probably wouldn't of taken the time to do so. So the fact it was on ITVX and all i had to suffer was a some ad breaks made me tune in and watch all of it, and i'd hazard a guess i wasn't alone in doing do. As for the racing, i think we all know Belle Vue has thrown up better racing in the past, but if any folk who had never seen or been to speedway match were there or watched it live i still think they would've enjoyed it, but sadly i think that number will be pretty small. I think the best promotion the sport can get is from us as fans just bringing it up in conversation if the chance arises with our friends and people we know, I've taken a few of my friends along to Glasgow and they loved it, a few came to the odd meeting over the following years but obvs have never ended up being weekly attendees or became massive fans of the sport, and to me that's fine. I just think if we all just let people know we go to Speedway and they have someone they know to go with it might surprise you how many of your friends and social circle would jump at the chance to go.

Have you seen how much Poland pay the riders , plenty of info via a Google search, all they have to do is offer a rider say £500 a point top riders are on 10 times that, then a clause in the contract you can only ride in one other league. Most riders are gonna put the polish money first, rather than ride in the UK for £75-£125 a point. Just got to see how little the British final winner got £1750 😲 look up Dan T's vlog

I do not want any rider injured. It is a great shame Dan has been out so long, I love watching him ride and hope he is back for the forthcoming world cup. The point I was trying to make was about the injury curse you often refer to. -
Will all come down to the viewing figures. AS a spectacle , us as speedway fans no it wasn't the finest meeting at the NSS but there were a few moments for new eyes to the sport to enjoy. Rushen gave them the story throughout the meeting. Hopefully ITV think it was worthy of the test-run and something they look to pick up later this season or next.

The point was about the famous injury curse which Ouch always refers to. Every team get injuries. I am sorry if it sounded like I wanted a rider injured, that is definitely not the case. I don't any rider injured. -
Who knows, bit of U turn from his statement start of last week to riding today. Probably say more chance of him not riding than riding.
