I think in Berwicks case they have a lot of support that travel from the Borders and surrounding areas so the reduction will make significant difference if they have a budget for their nights out.
A point I would like to make is these matches against Edinburgh & Newcastle would probably attract decent crowds without the reduction which proves its not just a case of attracting the fans because of the nature of the opposition .The local derbies are the right fixtures to pick though IMO.
I think the queue at the catering would certainly help shortfall of cash due to lowered Admission Prices.Shame about the match result although the Monarchs deserved to win it would have been a good bonus if the Bandits had won given the bigger turn -out.
I would say so,dont know how many Monarchs fans though ,the usual number on back strait .PS
Seb would have to cut a few inches of his Handlebars to Pass the Wily Fox last night.
It wiil be interesting to hear the Promotions thoughts regarding reduced admission,personally I thought it was quite encouraging to see a good crowd,but I dont know financialy if it was a success.proves that the fans are still out there if the price is right though.
Looks like a second title in the Cheeseburger Championship coming your way Taffy will be jealous
Good win for Monarchs,no excuses Berwick were poor,Kus was always either going to be hit or miss thats his style ,unfortunately tonight was miss.
Difficult to pick top 3 but IMO there is only about 6riders worthy of a place in GP the rest are far too incosistant to trouble top guys on a regular basis.I think the present meeting format has grown stale with most of the riders just settling for enough points to get a semi final spot.A knock out situation in the early heats for the lowest scorers and more riders in the meeting would be better IMO
Has Speedway ever suffered so much as this season with rain -offs or rain affected meetings ,Promoters must be tearing there hair out, a financial disaster for the majority of the Clubs this year.IMO
