Council statement & plans http://www.manchester.gov.uk/info/200024/consultations_and_surveys/6473/a_new_belle_vue_sports_village https://fbcdn-sphotos-g-a.akamaihd.net/hphotos-ak-xfp1/t1.0-9/10301449_670087266398529_7938989134393042709_n.jpg

6,000 is standard capacity, original plans were temporary extra grandstands can be added round bends and back straight to make capacity 15,000 for big events

Eurosport didn't cut the final off, it was broadcast Live fine. It was only if you recorded it using sky+ that it missed the final. This is Eurosport's mistake for not letting Sky know it was over-running so sky could update the planner.

I posted when the first photos were online of the track in December that it was far too narrow entering and exiting bends for the size of the track. As it is on top of an athletics track it was always going to be similar to Berlin & Gothenburg, can't see how they are going to be able to do much about it.

They must have seen my post and realised their mistake

Eurosport have made a scheduling mistake for this GP? The GP starts at 19.00 local time, Finland is 2 hours ahead of UK but doesn't start on Eurosport till 17.45

Price was nothing to do with it

Track length is 400m, very similar to Gothenburg as on top of an athletics track. Straights look narrow to be though entering and exiting bends. http://www.speedwaygp.com/event/tampere

Not listed on bet365 live streaming unless they put it on later, but everything else is listed far in advance.

Firstly it won't be a 'tv programme' it will probably be just one camera, showing races, won't be any interviews on anything like that purely races so you can bet on them and see what happens. Also it won't be great quality, just a small window in the corner of the betting website

Also every single meeting to be streamed live on betting websites : http://myemail.constantcontact.com/At-The-Races--Streaming-Division-signs-rights-deal-with-British-Speedway.html?soid=1110108263682&aid=U9c-ysPz1Cw

If you have ipad and iphone can you read it on both with same subscription?

For several years now Sky Sports have shown Elite League Ice Hockey, this summer they decided not to renew. Now Premier Sports have announced they going to start showing one live game a week from 23rd November along with their NHL coverage.

Any ideas where World Cup going to be in 2014?

Yep, thought it was suppose to be not going back to Parken?

I suspect you may get Wolbert and Ostergaard at Belle Vue but Dryml is riding in Czech league and I very much doubt Zagar & Zetterstrom will ride in it.

and Leicester website calls it an "inter-league challenge"

How on earth can this be called a Belle Vue team??? Leicester: 1. Magnus Karlsson, 2, Jan Graversen, 3. Ryan Fisher, 4. Lasse Bjerre, 5. Kevin Doolan, 6. Alex Edberg,7. Simon Nielsen Belle Vue: 1. Craig Cook, 2. Jozsef Tabaka, 3. Richard Lawson, 4. Thomas Jorgensen, 5. Rene Bach, 6. Ryan Douglas, 7. Steve Worrall

So is this track exactly same size as Copenhagen/Cardiff?

Yes it was, pretty sure it was this meeting must be the heat 10 that is missing http://vimeo.com/72478918 When he retired he moved to Florida to set up a swimming pool business, don't know if he still there or not.

Can get Birmingham +2 at Betvictor 4/5 or off scratch at multiple sites at 10/11

Most clubs you can't pay by card, as with most things speedway, living in the dark ages!
