  1. Emil would be top notch, the stadium will be full without hi, but with him the excitement level would be off the meter. A young Pole would be nice, Zmarzlik, one of the Pawlicki brothers, Dudek maybe. And one other "guest", television cameras - it is an historic event after all......... Belle Vue speedway back on a track built for speedway.
  2. Then the incentive is there to develop young riders - young ones are the future of the sport, always has been and always will be.. Its impossible to cover for every scenario.
  3. Turns 3-4......... That's where temporary stands will be fitted for the major meetings, so I believe - first one I imagine will be the SWC in July 2016. You must know what they plan, Phil, you had a tour round with CM & PC
  4. http://www.speedwaygp.com/ on this artist impression you notice on turn 1-2 there is not much room outside of track for stands etc. This is because BV wanted a good race track and therefore sacrificed stands for a good size track. ​
  5. but this reserve is to be an under 21 year old, which may (or may not) be different at this level - SWC. I think its a good move. It ensures if a rider gets injured during the meeting then there is a rider replacement available so the paying public still get to see 4 man races, and just as important..... a young rider gets a chance to soak up the atmosphere of world championship meetings from a rider perspective, and if given a chance to ride that experience is enhanced to a higher level..... AND we know what some under 21 year olds can do given a chance. (for those with dodgy memories...... they can beat the pants off established stars).
  6. Here we go..... http://store.steampowered.com/app/348820 ​
  7. Price for PC is £19.99 which is not bad. As Phil the Ace asked..... anyone downloaded it and tried it yet/???? Havnt a clue what graphics card in my All In One PC but it has a dual core i3 3.4ghz processor and 6gb ram so would hope the graphics are up to the job.
  8. I always rang to book our tickets. I have sat on the third bend and the fouth bend and had good views, depends what an individual wants.
  9. TWK, I am not on facebook, twitter or any other social media, just go to Belle Vue Speedway website (google it) and you get to see pictures of the "nice red shale" being laid.
  10. Manchester City Council have said the Sports Village will be an asset to the whole area. As said, its not just a speedway stadium. Man. City Council see a bigger picture, whereas it seems speedway supporters only see speedway.
  11. Taken straight from the speedwaygp.com web site, I found it very interesting. http://www.speedwaygp.com/news/article/4600/melbourne-time-lapse ​
  12. If that's the ccase then I am snookered. change over to PlusNet as my tel/broadband provider on Nov 25th. Done this so I can pay monthly to PlusNet to watch speedway on BT Sport next 3 years via my Sky box. Cant do it through a BT TV box because my broadband speed is abysmally slow. Thursday afternoon it was 1.83mbps, last night it was .82mbps. You need 2mbps to stream tv, so I am a loser. Cant get a faster broadband, but can get satellite tv.
  13. I can see these winter months are going to be long and hard to endure.
  14. With Doyle signing for Swindon, and Rroscoe having half a team in place, surely someone must know Swindon going to race in 2016.
  15. Wonderful Gustix. A really good reminder of all the star riders of that era. I saw Josef Hofmeister a couple of time at Wembley in the late 50's, and then the rise of the Polish riders, plus the two marvellous Russians Plechanov and Samaradov. The Scandinavians and Commonwealth riders all added to the exciting times. A good trip down memory lane.
  16. If you go to the Diamond Lodge website, the quoted room prices look as if they suspended. You have to phone them for pricing....... just like Cardiff, prices go up when a big event is taking place.
  17. Legal to sell the boxes, that's no problem because they give access to sites that are free to use. Illegal though to view sites that are not free to use ie BT Sports, Sky Sports. There is a difference.
  18. Clearly HISTORY is the correct section to put this thread in. To make sure I don't miss anything, when I visit this site I just click "View New Content" which is towards the top left side. That gets all new posts in each of the sections. That's how I got to read about Bristol Bulldogs 1977-78.
  19. Nationalism has caused arguments on this forum, and started wars around the world. We are all humans, all the same, just get on with living with each other.
  20. In a few days time I am out of contract for landline-broadband so I took the opportunity of going to PlusNet with 18 months free b.band (the £10m). This gives me the option of going with BT Sport 4 channels on a monthly contract thro my Sky box subscription, this will cost £10pm (but monthly contract). Option to see Moto GP and Speedway GP probably over a 10month season for £80. As the wife decided (yes I know) we not going to Cardiff in 2016 £80 spent with PlusNet/BT is a good compromise.
  21. and be after high retainers/bonus which will then take UK speedway into financial problems - as if they not already in that situ.
  22. Do the same as was recomended couple weeks ago and contact SS direct.
  23. I may be fortunate that my contract with Talktalk for phone/broadband expires in 15 days time. I could follow someones suggestion and join Plusnet and get BT Sport for an extra £5pm. For the next 4 days Plusnet is doing free broadband for 18 months (then £10 month), so adding BT Sport for £5pm is a no brainer. Of course I could go to BT who do their BT Sport for a fiver and loads of hotspots for mobiles. Time to research and do some thinking
