Its difficult to see where the sport is going in term of finance,as it doesn’t seem much has been addressed and there is no way that crowd levels will dramatically increase in the sport by charging to much for children and families.Kids have to go free to inticed the fans of the future and hope some stick with it.

Doesn’t look that great on paper but we know that means little in speedway,they need a couple to step up to the challenge IMO.

Depends how good the signings are though

Not denying his level in GB ,but should he really be riding in Championship giving the problems in the sport,and what the BSPA said they are trying to remedy by lowering points limit to bring GB youngsters into the league and cut costs.He won’t be cheap but if a club are willing to pay we can’t really complain,it’s not his fault.Sport is still in the same mess for another year IMO.

Yeh ,but he is an also ran when in the real thing,he has already ready said it cost him a fortune to compete.He is not as good as he thinks he is IMO.

There’s no point in Cook getting back in GPS it just cost him( or his sponsors) money which he pleads he hasn’t got,let’s face it he is His level.

He might even put his car up for a raffle for club funds.There is a chance he could win it back

We know that.

If you want to look at it differently,if the Glasgow team manager had used Wells in Ht 15 at Glasgow who knows!!

Not with the people presently ruining it.

Unfortunately with travelling costs getting more expensive it could just have a bearing ,with Berwick in particular have a lot of fans from outlying district.Still there is nothing been said regarding admission prices this season,simply a person asking question.!

I really admire what the present Promotion have done for the sport,but they are sending out some confusing statements regarding finances,on the one hand they are saying they have really good Sponsers financing signing on fees,there crowds look better than most tracks Visited last season yet they are not good enough to prevent financial losses over season,so you would have to question what kind of money they pay riders/ meeting ,every other club must be in serious difficulties.Strange!

I’m afraid that won’t happen IMO.

He is too busy tuning the guitar the last couple of seasons to worry about admission costs

Bomber probably looking for an NL Team place now so as he “can make it pay”

Its the standard reply to “ where does the money come from”.

This is the trouble with the sport nowadays,they should not have to rely on extra donations from fans to keep afloat.The AGM for me done nothing to help reduce costs in the sport or the way it is run.Promotions are still single minded paying out more money than income.It going to come to sticky end IMO.Value for money is debatable nowadays.Riders still seem to have the upper hand as Full Time Professionals it can’t go on forever at this level in the sport.Berwick admission prices last season were Acceptable but some other clubs were not IMO.

Its nothing new riders not getting their money on time,whether they get all that is owed to them is a different matter, I know of a rider who only went back to a club the next season because it was his best chance of getting the money he was owed from previous season,and I’d bet there were a few others in the same boat with various clubs throughout the years.

Personally I wouldn’t.

Don’t think both Wells and Riss will be at Edinburgh,1 maybe.

Think you will get the “golden oldies” that are not at Berwick.

That’s a poor looking Team IMO,think they will have stronger line up than that.

Or more in 1 case, if you did not book in advance.

I reacted to the Post that said 2 / 2pt riders is sheer folly.

Good signing IMO
