Take my hat of to Dan Bewlay last night very exciting and fast in front AND when he missed the gate he chased and gave 100% in every race trying to pass the opposition for 4 laps.By contrast Danny Gapp was excellent when he gated but trailed half the strait behind when he didn't ,surely if you can win heats you should be able to at least keep up with the opposition with a bit of effort.( obviously knew passing was non existant ).Entertainment factor was missing again this week.

Do you know the finances of Teams,I think Finances will become the major topic in the next few weeks there are big drop in crowd levels at MOST tracks this season but would imagine riders wages stayed the same regardless.

It's riders wages that need reduced for the financials .!

Probably on riders wages!

Think the Charles Wright sacking might come back to haunt them.

Matt Ford article sums up the sport very well.Please don't start telling me he started it all,I am only talking what he has said in THIS WEEKS SS.I tend to agree with his view. -
Very selective pricing Dick,let me add some more adult weekend ticket Sat + Sun £39 ConcessionWeekend+ camping £40 Concession WeekendTicket £20 Sat Adult £18 Concession £10 Sunday concession £18. 6-7 hours racing entrainment each day! Crowd probably 25,000+ they are not doing too much wrong I spent £80 last weekend watching absolute dross!! I am a speedway fan!

Yip,from die-hard to take it or leave it I'm afraid,the sport is in a shambles and it cost a fair bit of money to attend these days which I can find better things to do,Super bikes at Knockhill looks better value this weekend.Sad days for the sport.The happy clappers seem to thing everything is fine though,let them get on with it.!

No.IMO.

The quicker the powers at be realise that the Sport needs a total revamp at a lower level and build up again the better IMO.Its been staring them in the face for the last few seasons.The riders will be getting a little nervous these days.Feel sad for Rye fans,hopefully the can be resurrected by someone next season.Guests ,doubling-up and fixed race nights have to go.The sport has to be creditable.

What I meant was now that Summers is not No 1 in averages why do we not use him at 3 or 5. Which IMO would give the team abetter balance . -
Have you given up on this season already
