King Charles would say... "My gosh, is Speedway still going? One used to love watching Barry Briggs at Plough Lane, Mayta used to effing love it".... -

But what about riders who have upped their average & get dropped (like Trigger) or get dropped because someone else got injured (like Hume), what about riders who only get a handful of matches before being dropped (like Spencer)? You say it's different to being made redundant, but what about the other way round, if I want to leave my job I'm not banned from working elsewhere for 28 days. That's my issue, if clubs can drop riders at the drop of the hat, then riders should be able to leave clubs without a ban. If riders get banned for 28 days, then clubs should pay them for 28 days! -
Seriously, it’s that attitude that brings this sport down. I’ve no skin in the game but as someone who quite happily puts money aside each week to attend my club. If I were a working fan I’d be a bit p’d off. Do I think the fans deserve a news letter outlining everything, no. A polite statement to say “we are doing our best and we appreciate your patience” would go a long way. For me speedway is a get together for three generations of our family. We love our trackside evenings out but if that’s in doubt we would spend the money the clubs need elsewhere. In an age of social media and public image speedway needs to do better. The days of waiting for the star to come out are gone. What could really save the sport is public engagement not secrecy.
