Well I am sure your congratulations will make the whole thing worthwhile for them -
Belle Vue National Stadium
jimmy jimmy replied to PHILIPRISING's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Well why doesn't someone from this forum approach the Ricoh arena, agree a deal to rent the stadium, approach Horton to buy the licence rights, lay the track and put the Bees in there, if its so easy. Then approach BSI to get the second GP there, come on boys, the Promoters today are so rubbish so why don't you show them how it's done. -

No UK riders at all!! Surely it would be a great experience for Craig Cook, Richard Lawson and Richie Worrall?? -
Where Is British Speedway Going.
jimmy jimmy replied to mc1874's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
Better fixture planning should eliminate more of the 'who rides where' problem you allude to, which I agree is a problem. But one way or another, we need more British lads (or lasses) in speedway, so this has to be the start. -
Where Is British Speedway Going.

I actually think the fast track reserve initiative is a good one, the future of UK speedway is to have more British riders,,as it became reliant on the overseas riders, so the interest wained. Belle Vue have picked up their attendances markedly since we have 5 UK riders in it, the supporters have a connection with Scott Nicholls and Craig Cook that they wouldn't with Martin Vaculik as he would only ever hang around for one season, for example. -

Sayfutdinov Out Of Gp's
jimmy jimmy replied to Fozzie4388's topic in Speedway Grand Prix and Speedway World Cup
I don't know what his circumstances actually are, maybe he was hoping for a sponsor who didn't cone through, maybe his deal with Torun was under threat if he participated on all those Saturdays before a GP, but as he pulled out late, rather than when Gollob did, I don't think it was because he was siding with the Europeans. You think different, good for you I would think if BSI thought Onesport were trying to get riders not to participate in the GP, they would want to take the GP away. If Onesport thought BSI were looking to screw their series, they wouldn't want to stage one. Mutual interest not to stage the GP. Apparently a load of other tracks want to stage a GP in Poland. -

And Torun are staging a GP, so why hasn't he pulled that as well? I am sure if BSI and Onesport hatedxeachbither as much as you speculate they do, they would have gone their separate ways.
