  1. As I pointed out tv or no tv play offs have found themselves in nearly every sport ...and that includes pl speedway, polish speedway and Swedish speedway ...as I said before do sky run other nations speedway ?
  2. Why would you forget about the Pl ...the point being answered is that the only reason there are play offs is that sky want them ...quite clearly that is not the case as the pl plays offs are not shown on sky ....sky don't sponsored ice hockey but that has play offs and I might be wrong but I sure they dont' control Speedway in Sweden and Poland who also have play offs . To answered your question yes ,,because as pointed out tv or no tv sky or no sky nearly every sport has play offs . also if tv walked away there not going to go back to a normal league system as most of benefits of the play offs are not tv related ..
  3. Yet again if the plays offs are because of sky why are the pl having them .seeing the finals are not shown on sky .the last time i looked i cant see when the ice hockeys play offs were on sky as well .
  4. Just asking a question .you said that the play offs were only because of sky .so useing that logic the pl play offs finals must be live on sky right .?
  5. I Thought is was a great final on two great tracks ...no doubt no praise for sky thou . What impress me most what the desired and Heart that was Showed by Belle Vue, they wanted it so badly unlike Swindon in Semi who looked like they never cared less . As someone said on facebook last night . how good could speedway be if the riders cared ..
  6. Another Fantastic night for the Play offs ...the best thing that has happen to Speedway ..great stuff .
  7. What time is the Ice hockey plays off finals on sky tv ?
  8. Of course the play offs is about money ..I thought everyone understood that no one has said otherwise also no one was talking about the fairness we were talking about crowd levels so no need for your normal rant . ..and it's for most clubs not just a couple ...As nearly every other sport use them including Speedway in Poland and Sweden they must be doing ok .
  9. As I keep saying ...why would the crowds be any bigger if we went back to the old rules ...why would all thou extra fans last start going to normal league matches when for most of them there teams season would be over by May ? It makes no sense .
  10. ?? Common sense tells you in any sport that a crowd for any final is likely to more than a normal league match ...what sort of logic are you using ...As I said before do you expect the people who went to the final last night to start turning up every week if we went back to the old rules ? in last nights final how many changes did Belle Vue and Poole have in there line compared to what they started with at the start of the season ?
  11. And what happens if you can't win the league by the end of April ? no matches are important . Belle Vue season would have been over a long time ago under the old rules ....You don't have to be a egghead to understand that fans in all sports will go to finals even if they have not been all year .
  12. Yes ..so why would they go in March under the old rules but not go in March under the new rules.
  13. Not devalued them at all ...they have made more matches more important ....why would fans who turn up last night be there in march if we had the old rules .
  14. That what I said ...it's up to Newman to be ready to race
  15. ? what has got to do with Poole ..no matter who Newman rides for you not allowed to ride without Goggles . if that meant he was excluded for 2 mins then so be it ..who rides for and how he had no Goggles does not matter. It's no wonder Poole get flax when you even try are to defend this .
  16. Should do them all the time ....this is a great track to pass on ...people want dirt on the track. well they got it
  17. The irony of people making petty points .
  18. Well North must be a really nasty so and so if he was playing golf if his dad was in a coma . Speedway star article ? that's a magazine that will find the truth out and point the finger
  19. Don't think it's the same at all ...Grajczonek was involed in a crash that left a rider badly hurt in a coma we all know that there is no doubt about it plus it never made Belle Vue any stronger so there would have been any motive for him to miss the meeting .. on the other hand we have very little info on why North was in the so call state he was in bar ne never felt the need to go home he played golf the next day and Poole brought in a better rider on present form to replace him and then Ford bringing out a press statement for reason wanting to talk about the time of the op rather that was it was ...Josh g and North are nothing like each other
  20. Not about rolling over or people being right every one cares about the club ...it just about getting the mind set of understanding that this stadium is not being built rather making fools of ourselves looking for building work etc . time to get angry not hopeful
