no it isn't all down to that one meeting although one other rider seems to be having a go at getting rid of all the fans and I know through a couple of connections that the promotion has to take some responsibility for their actions but all these things plus where we are as a sport is taking its toll and still a lot of folks (including riders )refuse to change or even accept that we need to change -

This Saturday Workington who are just about keeping their heads above the water and are desperate to get their crowds above 500 😳Yes 500 are having to race a home meeting with 2 top riders missing because they are representing other clubs in the elite league championship or whatever it's called these days . Do we really need to keep spelling it out for people to understand ?? -

Do We Still Need The Play-offs
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to Star Lady's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
im not going , not just because of things like the price rise , just lost interest in British speedway and that is where we are , if the sport can't get someone like me to go it's doing something wrong and needs to change it thinking , I'm not lost to the sport just the British version -

I didn't know riders were not giving their all in other matches , what you describe should be standard in all matches , you shouldn't have to pay extra for basically you making the event atmosphere bettter -

THE DEAN MACHINE replied to Star Lady's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
not interested in any other sports but when money is tight and the sport is struggling to attract fans it shouldn't be making the public pay extra , you get nothing extra for your money , the riders don't get anything extra , the costs are the same so why should the fans be charged extra ? -

One thing I don't like about the playoffs is they put the admission price up for the final, thanks for supporting us all year and being a loyal fan in return we are going to sting you for another couple of quid -

For me the solution begins with riders and them accepting where we are , good luck to anybody who tries to get them accept change -

How Many Of Us Are Losing Interest.?
THE DEAN MACHINE replied to Sidney the robin's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I was talking to one of my customers this morning and he is a life long fan, he was saying that he had only been to one meeting this year saying how easy it was to get out of the habit of going, he said there is no loyalty anymore with teams ,when I asked about doubling up , he said it's nonsense and it should only be for young Brits as it was intended , I've been asking various ex riders and fans about doubling up and it's hard to find anybody in favour of it , I think the 26% who voted to keep it were all riders -
because I'm sure I read somewhere they had overall say on any British league speedway being shown , remember the thing about people filming and showing meetings on phones , it was around that time ,I think that's why they not shown before
