You say squandering - I say utilising With your thinking you don't have the top riders which means you don't have the TV and sponsor money That evens out but then you have the 200 less fans which means the clubs are 200 lots of admission money worse off All is well though as we get to see Simon Lambert instead of Emil Sayfutdinov........ (Apologies to Simon - just the first name that came to mind ) -

Getting proof of attendance at any speedway meeting is like counting hens teeth You'd have the same issue trying to prove my claim isnt true They aren't the saviours although they would have more chance of being so if it weren't for to the woeful way the sport is administrated As for them draining the money I don't agree. That largely comes from TV and individual sponsors who in general wouldn't put that money in for a run of the mill alternative -

Who says they don't add to the gate numbers? I'd put a pound to a penny few if any Championship clubs get half the numbers seen at Ipswich and would confidently state that whenever Emil was is town that the home club saw an increase of 200....... That's an increase not far short of some championship totals..... -

Don't think anyone else disputes the use of guests in the circumstances - the injuries were unfortunate and unforeseen It was the fact that Lambert should never have been allowed to be one of the guests that is more the issue Agree that being able to replace Vissing was the difference in the scheme of the bigger picture The changes made and the way that was undertaken also leaves a lot to debate as to the ethics of it but quite frankly I can no longer be bothered!!

Anyone would think he might be wanting to be on a lower average to attract a new club.... -
