if discovery + are big on promoting speedway,, why the hell are they not showing this.!!!

i noticed that,, i bet the crowd on the back stand were told they could move to a empty seat,, .

i never said it was,nt on discovery + it just don,t show it on there tv guide. which is confusing.

so much for eurosport, and discovery + big promotion push begining of season,,,its a joke ,nothing on eurosport tv guide ,and on discovery + tonight it shows last weeks oxford match ,the only people who will see speedway on tv are speedway fans who pay just to watch there sport,, the general puplic see sport on itv,sky,tnt. and if you want highlights its hidden away at midnight on quest,,, so people who have eurosport as part of there package ,wont even know its on this week,, tv as done nothing for speedway only show small crowds on wet monday night when nobody wants to go out,,

iv got no commentary pit interveiws but no tatum,,, it was the same last year,,still think they treat speedway fans ..as second best after all the bull about the new area of promotion.

are they filming this from a helicopter,,,or have they just got one camera on the stadium roof !!!!!

iv down loaded seetickets ,,, but it dont work ,,,,just a round figure in middle of phone changing colour,,,,, this will be fun saturday.

tonights match on EUROSPORT starts at 7,30, till 10,00,,,,, 2 and half hours to watch 15 minutes of racing,,how are they going to sell that to the watching puplic, iv seen nothing that will promote the sport,, do people in manchester know its on,,, is there a 10 pound entrance fee , and kids go free,,, look when the highlights are shown on quest on tuesday,,,,,,,,bloody midnight !!!!!!!!!! head in sand.

same problem at Leicester, say no more.

just think how much support you would get if people knew it was there, across the road is a massive shopping centre with thousands of people, who have,nt got a clue, I saw a large notice board there ,WHATS ON IN THIS AREA, guess what was missing ! since the track was built never seen one advert for the sport , why nobody as put a bike on display outside Tesco,s is a no brainer it,s the best kept secret round here, but people who run speedway have never had a clue. anyway went in the local pub sunday no mention of it there ,the good thing is nobody will moan about noise ,whey will think the roads are busy with traffic.

am I missing something here , why not invite top world class rider as wild card like emil sayfutdinov instead of some body who just happens to win british final, BUMS ON SEATS. would MOTO GP invite a rider who won a national race at Mallory park. and why is gp not repeated on itv4 like moto, superbikes, cars etc! mail on sunday 10 pages of bloody tennis , SAD.

what a joke speedway is at Leicester. watched NORWICH win playoffs at Wembley had everything then payed my first visit to see the lions in 2 years. after I handed over 17 pound to find it was Leicester select v poole cos riders keep do,in a runer. then the sun break for an hour ,tractor racing and a karaoke singer, WHAT A JOKE, as for the result the poole riders did,nt want to kill themselves on a trick track, just done enough to win. I remember crowd levels better than this in the premier league , racing was the same as when it opened follow the leader, never again.

why not put ward in as wildcard for Cardiff, forget the winner of the british final, you will get the biggest crowd todate, BUMS ON SEATS. mickyp

3 points home win and black and yellow helmet colours ,CROWDS WILL FLOCK BACK in there thousands head in sand.

i think when sky showed speedway on monday nites to poor crowds and no atmospere it showed the sport in a bad light and to show 15 miniutes racing over 2 hours bored people, then the tape exclusions and back to the pits for tea,plus the tractor race, then none speedway fans being confused why bees chris harris was riding for poole the next week, then theres the joker, rule changes, riders burnt out from wandering the world , plus most tracks today are sheds, we had better stadiums 50 years ago , when leicester opened i was thrilled, i only live down the road but i was bored stiff and last year was the first time in 40 years i did,nt go. so av we seen it all and got the t.shirt.i think the elite is a dead duck and dare i say im thinking of going to coventry for the national league cos i think we need to get back to basics and we might see some close racing and 14 lads that turn up. micky p.
