  1. They do a cracking finger buffet I'm told. Amazing how the speedway fan base is shrinking but the attendance at the annual parliamentary shindig is growing.
  2. If only they had the money to execute your elaborate plans
  3. Agree with a lot of what you say Stoke Potter. Just seen a cracking football match this afternoon, goals,incident,cracking entertainment in front of a crowd who were in it for 90 minutes. No circus acts, dancing girls or young funky music just a cracking core product which lets be honest is why we follow sport in the first place. Some of the people I attend speedway with have stopped going this year simply because the racing is not good enough and they are bored,the presentation is good but the core product is not good enough often enough.You can advertise,promote all you want but if people are not impressed first off they won't be back and will follow the many other thousands who have already walked away.
  4. Is this a team for the fantasy league ?
  5. No shocks ! Jonsson selected on the qualification of being Swedish
  6. Do you think if there was a real prospect of a track materialising that the current 3 promoters would have jacked in
  7. How much does it cost to watch the Rolling Stones today compared to what it cost to watch them in 1965 ?
  8. Think we should wrap this debate up and bow to Bwitcher's superior Knowledge that in his 6th season at Wolves the World champion lacked confidence riding in a a watered down Elite league while instantly regaining his confidence when he left these shores to compete in the superior competition of the Grand Prix ,World cup, Swedish and Polish leagues. Simples !
  9. Do you really believe it is a great product ? There are thousands of seasoned fans who used to go but now choose not to, not sure they would agree with you.
  10. Its a mystery ,couldn't find a set up to fire him out of the start in England but it was working in Sweden and Poland. That says equipment to me ! or maybe it was the latitude or atmospheric pressure in Britain.
  11. 2009 Olympique line up : Klindt . Barker . Fishback . Lawson . Lindgren .Kerr . Skornicki . Larsen . Haines . Nicholls . Bridger . Procter . Wolbert .Ingalls .Woodward . Harris. Hardly any different in standard to this year.
  12. It has nothing to do with 'end of season mode' Crowds have been poor at Wolves all season this was just a continuation of what has become the norm. The Olympique used to be one of the best crowds of the season,the last chance to catch speedway before next march,interviews with the home riders and a firework display to boot.Sure in the 2nd week of October its never going to be tropical but the night was dry and clear,put a jacket on like the rest of us ,its never stopped people before.
  13. The usual 18 quid for adults Big crowd ? Definitely the lowest ever for the Olympique . Suppose if you keep saying things often enough people might start believing them.
  14. To get this right both Tai's parents were Australian citizens but he wasn't
  15. Shocking crowd for the Olympique at Wolves tonight. Five years ago we used to get as many at Press and Practice night as we got tonight.
  16. Yourself and Speedway Star may be 'speculating' but your both saying the same thing about 1 Swede being selected. Since the GP has had 15 permanent riders there has always been a minimum 2 Swedes in the field by qualification or wild card. Why should this not be the case next year unless your not actually speculating but know this to be the case, were not fools we know BSI and Speedway Star have a relationship.
  17. Agree think the current owners have come to the conclusion that a new track is not going to be forthcoming.The issues stated by the owners are issues that have existed for the last 5 years ,( Pearson working on Sky, CVS involved with Wolves, etc )
  18. There's only you that thinks that so carry on in your own universe
  19. Can only speak for myself,my parents took me to speedway as a child,I was hooked by the noise,the smell and the speed.Nowadays there is little noise,hardly any smell with only the speed remaining.The number of kids at speedway seems to have dramatically reduced and the ones that are there look bored,if we can't hook kids to be the long term fans of the future the sport will die in Britain.
  20. Reading the speedway star they sound like they know who the wildcards will be.They seem to be leaning towards one Swede although there has always been 2 Swedes in the GP when there has been 2 GP's in Sweden.For a Swede they seem to be in Jonsson's camp sighting Lindback's poor performance in Stockholm as evidence,and forgetting about his 14 points in Mallila and being Swedish champion.If the case is Kidemand,Hampel,Jonsson,Vaculick it seems like a bit of if your face fits with BSI rather than if your deserving and one of the worlds best 16
