I didnt like how many meetings Fricke missed last year. May as well not have a part time rider. His future is in Poland/Sweden/Denmark. Let him get on with it. Cant understand why the current British Champion has not got a place in the top British league. Yes I know he did have but that was taken away, but he has got to be somewhere in the Premiership or it makes a mockery of the matter.

Thought we lost one, but we havnt. Means better value taking out BT Sport.

Over 12 months ago I ordered a "second room" deal with Sky, £12per month and I could watch all the channels showing on the main TV. Two engineers came to fit this box, which was simply to connect the dish cable (already there) plug it in, stick a new Sky card in and register the card with Sky. Took about 10 min (if that), but I didnt get charged.

Some may do, in an apprenticeship or traineeship, so not earning a lot, others stay at college. The idea of free kids is to attract a younger generation to speedway. Get them hooked on it and then as years go by they bring their kids to the meeting and so on. Someone has to be brave enough to do it - but it needs to be promoted correctly, and thats another subject.

Dont egg them on!

Thats the current going rate if you with BT, think it is reviewed August time. Its good value for money - lets hope they stay sensible.

Cant remember what year I first saw the Golden Helmet races at Hyde Road, maybe late fifties when I was 12-13 but defo remember those in the 60's, especially Craven v Fundin, and what cracking races they were. Two completely different riding styles, yet so much trust between them to be able to ride so close at the speeds they were doing. Amazing.

A few matches - 11 GP's, and 18 british league matches. Heres a link to BT fibre b/band at a speed of upto 52mbps, unlimited monthly usage for under £30pm (includes line rental) for 12 month contract. Add £8pm for a TV box and BT Sport 1234 free until Aug then £3.50pm. A bargain I think. https://www.productsandservices.bt.com/products/broadband-packages/?s_cid=con_maxus_display_vidZ60&vendorid=Z60&dclid=CKev4JSd1NICFXWi7QodLVkIIg

I can see this going to "my dads bigger then your dad"

Its on the official BV website as well

It shows, Danny, that loyalty means nothing these days. I have learnt to shop around for likes of car insurance, house/contents insurance etc. Lat December my Sky bill was £49pm and tel/bband another £28pm. I am changing to BT tel & fast fibre b/band c/w tv entertainment plus package in 2 rooms (had to pay £99 for 2nd tv box, but for £43pm. Thats a 12 month contract but was told in 12 months time due to go up £20 month but was told just talk to us and a deal will be made. Hope you get your Mum and Dad sorted well.

Track covers were another thing Man. City Council didnt provide last year at the new BV stadium. Its in their list "to do" during 2017

Thats the one I was thinking of. I am sure I read somewhere it was agreed between MCC and BSPA representatives for the complex to be called NSS. It was a link from somewhere on here, probably in this thread.

I signed up this morning to BT to supply tel/b-band/tv (in 2 rooms) for just over £40 per month. Thats broadband at 55mb/s Its a hefty upfront cost cause I wanted both rooms to have a recordable tv box, so that was £99 in itself, £50 activation fee for Infinity1 and then delivery of the package at £10, and a set of 3 connectors for the router to extend in the rooms. Should be up and running by end of March. Current broadband is 1.2mb/s so 55 is a massive gain.

As Sky pulled out less then a week ago, maybe BT do not have the resources to pick up at a moments notice. Resources as in manpower and equipment.

Who at the BSPA do you think could negotiate a deal with Sky/BT/whoever competantly enough to get a good deal? Many high profile companies engage PR personnel managers/companies as it is a specialist field

I think the NSS cme from MCC wanting the title. The stadium is part of a project on the east side of Manchester promoting sport. Man City Etiad stadium is only couple miles away - as is the National Velodrome and I think there is another "National" sport event closer to the NSS, cant remember what it is though.

How can BT offer you BT Sport when you havnt got BT TV. Surely to get BT Sport on an active Sky box you have to go through Sky. Have you not thought of ditching Sky and getting a BT TV box - its cheaper I think.

I dont see anything wrong at all watching speedway on the TV. If no one paid Sky/BT/Eurosport the fees they charge then there would be no funds going to British speedway - its what British speedway does with the money they receive from the TV businesses that really matters.

I cancelled my Sky subscription which did not include Sky Sport (so no Britiish league speedway) but could watch BT Sport via Sky through paying Plusnet (my b/band supplier) £10 per month for those months I wanted to watch GP's. I was paying Sky £49pm for TV viewing, plus my tel/b-band package through Plusnet of £28pm - so £77pm plus another £10pm when GP season on. My Plusnet contract finishes in 2 months so I will be free (for the first time in a long time) to choose who I want and maybe a tel/b-band/tv package and BT is top of the list. I reckon at the moment with the deals on, could get from BT - tel/fast b-band (56mb/s)/tv box for £60 but for 1st 12 months reduced to around £42 plus a £125 preloaded onto a mastercard. You need to know what usgae you have on broadband. The above figures are for 25gb download per month. Im currently using 12gb-23gb depending what I download obviously. That could increase depending on usage with a fast b-band available but up to 100gb download is about £8 per month more.

Now got the link, need to read through again.

Seeing as DG/Cm were at one time to keep there nose out of MCC/ISG affairs I find that story hard to believe at this point in time.

Sky paid £10million per league match - surely thats not correct, is it???

The link is not working for me. Interesting twist.

As MCC and BV had an agreement, BV would put the loss assessor claim to MCC. I would assume as the claim was the result of negligence (or whatever) of ISG then MCC would put a stop on the payment to ISG iie Pay Less Notice.
