  1. I think you may find that hotels in the big cities will increase the prices when ANY big how is in town.
  2. If it was not technology you would not be posting on here, now.
  3. Yep, Dan is impressive. His gating this year has improved immensely, and it needed to as his experience of coming from the back needs adding to at the very top level, that will be fulfilled in the next 2 or 3 years. Then, if he can keep away from serious injury, he could be multi world champion just like Woffy and Smarzlik.
  4. At BV in 2016 when they had the world team (or whatever is was called then), there was food/drink stalls outside the stadium, and extra food/drink stalls and toilets inside the stadium at the rear of the temporary stands. You can of course bring/buy your own food and eat outside the stadium
  5. I know that but I don't want to burst every one else's balloon.
  6. Don’t agree, Elle Vue needs to be Aug/Sept hoping the weather is not raining. Having determined that would mean Cardiff the early one in May or a later one just beforeTorun.
  7. Personally, I think it was right to call an end after heat 20, even though heat 20 was rerun….it had to be rerun. To put the top scorers through two more races (if they got to the final) may not have reflected the true winner and potentially injured one or more of the eight. The races could potentially be a gate and go affair, or worse, someone may have tried an overtake resulting in two or more riders getting injured. Tje same thing could have been said about the British Championship the other week. They got to heat 12 and stopped it. If it went to 12+they could have got to 13, then to 14 and do on. It’s sad to end a meeting early, but it happens out of necessity.
  8. Stream it and charge £20, well worth it to see the speedway gladiators fighting it out on a proper race track. Obviously supporters already paying for a bona fide “licenced” viewing does not pay again. That should cover costs, viewers around the world.
  9. As has already been said, hotels will put their prices up anyway….. they do all over the country when they know a big event is on…. And they have their means of knowing when big events are on. Big events could be anything that attracts people ie conferences, exhibitions, sporting events, concerts, school hols…. Anything.
  10. No speedway track in the uk can hold anything near what Cardiff holds. So maybe we should be happy sticking with Cardiff.
  11. There would be a result for that race, either as positions stood in the stopped race, or after a rerun. They decided on the rerun, no doubt because Kemp could have won it which presumably would affect semi final draw.
  12. They would have got points. They were deciding not to rerun the race but award points how they were when the race was stopped…. Or if they rerun the race and positions changed would those points have affected the two semi final draw positions. If that was a possibility then they would have to run the race again…..which they did but Kemp didn’t attempt a good start, so it made no difference anyway.
  13. Kvetch was stupid, if he waited just a bit longer he would have passed, even in 2nd spot he would still have won the meeting. He should have thought it out before the start. He clearly took the from t wheel away.
  14. Not the meeting, no. they trying to work out if the 20 needs to be run… looking at points for semi finals.
  15. That is unfortunate, in the lead, race stopped by caller, restart and he is on his back. heat 20 needs to be run, then stewards meet. I think it will be called off.
  16. Have you got Discovery+ entertainment AND sport. I sure I read Sky package is entertainment only UNLESS you subscribed to sport as well. why not try one of the links R&R has posted?
  17. I want to say “well done” to Tom Brennan and Leon Flint as meeting reserves. They got rides, both of them, and were not disgraced, and am sure they gained loads by the experience. And although it was not Robert Lamberts best meeting, his time will come, and soon. He is gaining experience, which Dan is still short off much more than Robert, obviously due to Robert having been at the upper level a couple more years than Dan. And whilst Tai had his own problems last night, how chuffed he must feel. He wanted to develop British riders in the Uk, his proposals turned down, so he has took the youngsters to Poland (Robert and Dan) and made racers of them. Can see Tom Brennan and others doing the same. another 18 months and perhaps Tom will be in Poland learning skills under the watchful eye of Tai.
