  1. Don't agree ...the thing that has always been true is that crowds have dropped as the standard has dropped and unless something is done in that respect it will carry on and speedway will die a slow death . Thou it's quite clear that the best days are Thursday ,Fridays and weekends to get better crowds it's quite clear at El level that teams as they have in the last few years would have most of there team missing most of the time on these dates so it would just defeat the object of having a fixed race nights . As I said before Fans biggest hate is riders missing matches and having guests and rr so there is little point having El speedway on these dates . Monday or Wednesday are the way to go ...teams can have full 1 -7 's it won't effect the double up riders so pl teams can have more chance of full 1 -7's and it may bring back a few good riders into the bargain ...of course some teams are going to have to ditch there normal race night but after a while they would soon get used to what night speedway is on ...looking it already you can see that the ugly head of self interest will stop this in it's tracks with the likes of John Cook only caring about keeping his own race night .
  2. Join a sinking ship ? not sure you notice the Pl is hardly the place to be ...yet another who thinks that all the problems are at El level ....speedway is a sinking ship at all levels . Saying that if they are going to make it Thursday and Friday then the idea is a complete waste of time .
  3. It seems me that you made up your mind you don't like it and your going make up any reason you can find to do that . You started off by saying it would effect Pl teams. Once it was explain to you that would not be the case you changed to top riders taking money out of the sport etc etc thou clearly that won't be true . To me your just an old fan who does not like any change .I bet if it ever started your be sitting there preying for it to fail and be unhappy if it worked .
  4. Yet again another delay ...this has been my problem from the start ...why keep giving the fans these silly start dates ..as if the stadium was going to be built during the season and be ready by june ect ...they treated the fans like mugs no what happens now .
  5. i expect over half of the gp's riders have at one stage rode in the uk before ...as i said you are guessing that riders won't come back on fixed race nights as it's based no data as it's never happened before ...and if will need 2 or 3 to make a massive difference ...i also expect they spoken to Tai etc and taken in what has said before going ahead with this .
  6. Based on what ? who knows how many would ride again on a fixed race night ...it's impossible to judge ....the main thing is to get riders to miss less meetings, what fans say in there biggest problem at the moment ...if better riders come then it's a bonus .
  7. First all I ask you what pl clubs would be effected by el clubs having a fixed race nights on Monday or a Wednesday ...I had a check as far as I can see there are none .The biggest problem fans have is riders missing matches having a fixed race nights at El gives more chance of both EL and Pl putting out there full 1 -7 . and at the same time if it brings back a few better riders then all well and good ....not sure how you can destabilise a sport that is nearly dead anyhow in the uk . Looks like they going to it next year anyhow and to me it can't come soon enough .
  8. In other words you can't give any pl clubs that would be affected or any reasons why clubs would how find themselves in any more trouble than they would be now .
  9. it makes no sense as they don't like each other ...you would not ask say a Swindon fan to go at watch oxford even if did ride at the same track . if the race night was a Monday or a Wednesday what pl tracks would it effect ? one the main reasons to have a set race night is to make sure that teams track there own 7 riders etc it's not just about making the standard better. There is zero reasons why it would be the death for any clubs .
  10. Why will they finish them ...speedway is dying a death anyhow might as well take a risk rather doing the same old same old .
  11. It would be better and more funny if you explained why it has kept it's stock .
  12. How can you plan in june and july when you don't know the amount of teams there are going to be ? if a myth that the amg is held to late there is loads of time to plan before the start of the season
  13. When it comes to Crook and Fraund I think nearly everyone has the same outlook no matter what part of the world they come from
  14. Anyone see the irony of the above post who would have thought that Starman of all people would talk about grammar and spelling ....that is how thick he is
  15. Knowing the bookies they have cov quite short in fairness but that only because of the name as on paper they look poor ..as I said 3 teams looks way above the others thus far with leics shocking ..and the rest much around about the same .
  16. ...Not sure how deep of a hole you want to dig yourself ...so what happens if kl do sign a rider who would make a different ? if would mean you would change all the prices you had put up in the first place ....we have seen your tips and logic and how you price things up and they are all clueless ...and there is not chance in million years that have any money out of betting ...if you have retired then it's because of your age .
  17. First of all they have 6 riders and you also priced up Leics thou there team is not complete yet .....how on earth can you price up the others if have not factor in Kl in the first place ...don't give up your day job .
  18. Same as every time you do this you miss sides out ..
  19. Poole ,Swindon and Belle Vue look way above the rest who all look terrible ....Leics look like one of the worst sides ever put together in El history Not question of overrating them but how weak the other sides look .
  20. What child like over reaction ....Another taking his ball home when he does not get his own way ... all you have to do is look at old posts from when the draft first came out and you would see what you put and how you felt about it I remember you and Steve 0 having a debate about it and I sure he also remembers what you put as I and others do . If you don't like being called a liar then don't lie it's as simple as that ...Are leave you to play the victim and the others to do the please don't go's .
