How about making season tickets a more viable thing to buy rather than just saving one meeting how about save 4 meetings if bought before January 1st and offer £20 off as well if you live 35 miles from the stadium - I always used to buy one but with little incentive there really is no point - in fact 2017 season ticket holders paid more than if theyd paid on the gate .
-
top post - what I dont get is why promotions dont treat die hard fans with more respect why do they take that group for granted- also why is there 0% effort into trying to attract new fans .
-
yet admission prices go up almost every year - speedway certainly isn’t value for money .
-
total disgrace how they was treated loyal sponsors are hard to find last thing you need to do is pee them off - if Trucks R us walk away which Id be amazed if they didnt who will be main team sponsor then ? MRC possibly.
-
that is 100% true - have many conversation mainly with Anita who refused to pay to watch at Lynn - That is 100% true and a total disgrace.
-
including the Promotion- what an insult after the Thousands of pounds Roger and Anita Warnes ploughed into the club being made to pay at the box office last season they should have been allowed free entry for life .
-
Think its time for speedway fans to wake up and face the truth - unless BT / Sky throw money at speedway and in all honesty why should or would they ? Or a major league sponsors can be found speedway as is stands isnt viable if we bury or heads in the sand and even start next season with similar team strengths and over heads as 2017 I can see clubs closing but mid summer
-
Rather than over the years could it be bring in the strong down to the weakest has been the wrong way about going about it - instead of one or two weak clubs we now have a league full of weak clubs - no league sponsors possibly no tv money - if the strong clubs had been able to remain strong top riders would still be over here and with possibly tv deal and league sponsors- but over the years all weve done is water down the sport year on year while clubs expecting fans to turn up take this season sack too top riders bring in championship standard riders massively cut the wage bill Id guess but not cut admission price and then they wonder why fans walk away .
-
the Championship finals day would need to be more northern based as most of the clubs are more northerly that’s why BelleVue would be a good choice of venue - Premiership finals day I thought Pboro as a venue - it only an idea I had today but it’s no more crazy than some of the stuff that’s come from the BSPA this season .
-
How about a finals day for both Premiership and Championship ? Mid September say - on a nuteral track two 15 heat semi final winners into the final over 15 heats - Premiership at Peterborough Championship at Belle Vue obviously not the same weekend so no to clash for double uppers - top 4 teams league winners chose who they want to race in the semi first semi 12 mid day start second semi to start 1 hour after heat 15 of 1st semi the final say 7 pm start - £25 admission 20%of gate admission money to each of the 4 clubs 20% to the host club but TV money to the 4 clubs competing. Just an idea crazy maybe but need fresh ideas and maybe think outside the box . Finals day works for T20 cricket different sport I no but it could make a great day .
-
great post JC very interesting- so 30-40 % comes from the fans paying there £17 so it beggars belief as to why fans are not treated like VIPs by clubs and also why some effort isnt put into attracting new fans I cant get my head around why in my opinion fans are taken for granted in such a way .
-
thats the problem promoters dont promote die hard fans are taken for granted and zero effort made to attract the next generation of speedway fans . The sport is dead in the water Im sad to say .
-
If I was Ged I’d keep the Torun money as a golden handshake as I think the promotion rights at Pboro and any other club are more or less worthless keep the Torun money and walk away , with Swales walking as well my guess that’s what will happen -then it’s down to if anyone else out there with a small fortune to lose fancies being a speedway promoter at Pboro .
-
from what I’m hearing Brundle will be involved with the BSPA also becoming co promoter is the only way to do that from a Lynn point of view if this is true it’s a bad move we need someone 100% hands on at the club .
-
why ? they have Premiership averages Iversen doesn’t
-
but Iversen never rode here his average is an EL average not a Premiership- but I must be wrong
-
if you say so -but to me Iversen average is false he never rode here this season so he’s definitely on his EL average if his average isn’t loaded prior to 2018 it makes Doyle Lindgren and Holder loaded 2017 average a joke .
-
surely Iversen average would be nearer 12 .50 as the average Im guessing your using is an Elite League average .
-
a PR man is needed before they will share that information with the fans the same contempt to fans is being shown now as it has for the last couple of seasons . As Ive said they need to work at it if they want me to return next season so 0% effort has been shown to make me want to be there in March .
