The White Knight

He's obviously got sense.

Had to laugh at that Sydney. :rofl:

Too many................ :mad:

Please don't let certain Posters, who should have more sense, get you down chucks. Continue Posting - you are entitled to your view as much as anyone else. Actually - I haven't seen any apologies to you yet. I'm disappointed about that........................... :sad: Very true - but the Promoters want them. It doesn't really matter what the Supporters think though does it? After all, it is the Supporters who are the Customers - why worry about them when they will come anyway - or will they? You usually do - why change the habit of a lifetime?

However - had there been no 'Play Offs' - guess what - they would have been Champions now as they fully deserve to be.

Get well soon Zenon.

More should have been done when Speedway was a really popular Sport. Sadly things have been allowed to get so run down - the Sport of Speedway could well be History in this Country in a few years. I take no pleasure whatsoever in saying this. To a point, I don't even blame the Promoters today. Most of them were probably not around the last time Speedway in the UK was successful. The mistakes were made many years ago. The thing is that hindsight is wonderful thing - but - who is to say that we, had we been Promoters then, would not have done exactly the same?

Speedway used to be much better with straight through exhausts and the smell of Castrol 'R'. :approve: Aahhhh!! - Those were the halcyon days. :approve:

Couldn't we all. :sad: You are right about Scunthorpe though HT - great Track, great Racing and great atmosphere.

Could Redcar not hold it on a Saturday Night? Surely they would get a bigger attendance. Any reason why not? Genuine question.

I remember seeing Reg at Sunderland when he was riding for Eastbourne back in the day. R.I.P. + Reg.

Dead right.. The trouble is it has been that time for a long time now. When will they see Financial sense?

Haha orion. At least we would see the end of Tactical Rides and Play Offs. Better not tell Trees that.

Very true!! But that doesn't make it a Good or a Fair Rule though does it?

I actually agree with you. It will never happen though. :sad:

Logical Mr. Spock.

I cannot disagree with that.

................ and THAT just about encapsulates a lot that is wrong with Speedway these days. :sad: :mad:

R.I.P. + David.

R.I.P. + John.

Not that close to residences actually. That is one of the plus points. It won't happen though, up to about four years ago I don't think the Stadium were that interested. Minds (and personnel) may have changed though. I don't think that the good folk of Newcastle and Redcar have anything to worry about despite Sunderland being the biggest conurbation in the North East.

Agreed. For commercial reasons........................... :rolleyes:

?????? Blimey - that's a clever Post Mr. Blobby. :rofl:

Oh RD. :rofl: :rofl:

Crucially though - they won't sell it for development. Superb Stadium with, admittedly, limited viewing from the Terraces - would still be possible though. The only question would be, does the Boldon Stadium want Speedway? Up until now the indications have been less than positive I have to say. Things may have changed though, over the last few years. WHO? :unsure:
