Worrying times with the Recession. Folk don't have the disposable income that they used to have what with a
Costs rising and Wages fairly static. According to the News yesterday only 20% of Government Cuts have come through and affected us to date. That means there is another 80% to come. Heaven help us.
You only have to look at the Utility Price Rises in the pipeline (no pun intended) to see that things are going to get a lot worse by Spring/Summer next year.
Let's just hope that Speedway can get through this and survive.
I believe it will be that bad. :sad:
I am so pleased that we got something out of the Season. Top of the League (really Champions) - and - Cup Winners - I'll settle for that. :approve:
Hard luck Ipswich - All the best for next Season.
Just found out I am unable to get to the Meeting this evening. Son currently at Hospital.
Very best wishes to the 'Diamonds' tonight. Hope we can get the Silverware.
A safe Meeting to ALL Riders.
I never fail to be amazed at how much knowledge there is about Speedway out there. I am also very impressed with the way Speedway people try to help each other out with information etc. I think it is a GREAT credit to our Sport that folk are prepared to go to such lengths.
For the second time in two days (I'm Posting the following) - I am so pleased that I chose to follow Speedway as a young man - it WAS like that then - it IS like that now. Long may it be so.
Thank you Steve for confirming that.
Is it FINAL then or are negotiations still ongoing?
I am dreadfully sorry to hear about these problems.
Plymouth Supporters do not need this. They turned up at Newcastle, a few weeks ago - and what a smashing lot they were. Speedway NEEDS people like these.
