Something I would like to know. I know this is a difficult and uncertain time for promoters, but just about everything I have heard is rather vague.

Be interested to know which team/rider you are referring to. Have seen Woffy ride in 3rd tier.

The guest rule is open to manipulation. Years ago I remember James Grieves being unavailable for a match at Sheffield. Although he was a good 2nd tier heat leader he rode Sheffield like a 3rd tier reserve. His team brought in Simon Stead as guest. I have often wondered if guests should be chosen by a neutral to try to make the replacement as equal as possible. However I think trying to get someone to accept this poison challis may not be so easy.

Whatever happens hopefully we will get a 2021 season. News on vaccine is hopeful. Be nice to get some official confirmation of what the promoters intend. Last year the outcome of AGM announced on 15 November.

That should make things a Hole lot better.

That would be a step up the ladder ☺️

How difficult is it to keep the camera on the race for approximately one minute?

Curious! Why can't they be picked?

Per the schedule doesn't appear they are showing the 3rd 4th place play off at all.

Will the 3rd 4th place play off be on Premier?

Anyone know when or if Premier are showing this round of matches? Per my EPG they claim to be showing the matches before they even start.

Thanks for the info. Is Dave actually at the meetings, or is he just watching it on a TV screen like us?

Is it just me or have a lot of the races shown recently on Premier frozen, then suddenly fast forwarded? And why do the bikes sound so quiet?

Not sure what the lowest number possible is, but in the Scunthorpe Newport match in 2006 only 5 different riders won a race.

Thanks

Slightly off topic, but can anyone let me know the dates that the play off finals in Sweden's Elite and Poland's Extra Liga are scheduled for? Thanks

Reckon Premier Sports think EPG means every programme (is) guesswork.

Does your question relate to popularity as a spectator sport, participation sport, or both combined? From a participation point, some sports, especially motor sports would be less popular due to cost (and possibly the danger)

The Grudziadz match live on Premier Sports, which previously disappeared from my EPG, has now gone back on it. I believe even Dave Goddard said yesterday it would not be shown live. About time Premier Sports started updating their EPG correctly.

Both live Sunday matches on Premier have now gone from my EPG listings. Looks like delayed coverage only.

Considering they are not posting tickets, seems a high price for P&P

Thanks for clarifying.

I'm not too familiar with Swedish. Does this mean no league speedway at all?

Would be ironic if there are more meetings in October this year than some recent years.

The 2nd/3rd tier in rugby league have abandoned the season. Can not make it cost effective if no crowds allowed in until October. Can not see that speedway can pay without crowds, and October too late to start. Would also need to consider how many riders with temporary jobs will want to keep them until next March.
