  1. That is a big problem - in speedway you are almost punished for being successful, spending out huge points money and costs before then having to rip that team apart to stay under a points limit. It really is a weird theory. Formula1, Football etc there is huge financial incentive the higher up the table you finish
  2. From a business point of view, it probably has. From what others have said crowds have been good, especially early in the season - just because results haven’t been great that isn’t always a bad thing. Teams that run away and win the league racking up 60+ points at home every week is a quick fire way to run up debt.
  3. Along with the caption of “use it or lose it, so therefore prices are now going to be £25 to get in” more than likely….
  4. But this was the only possible date this fixture could be ran…. Apparently.
  5. You’d imagine that the first part of any contract would be that the riders have to be available for all fixtures unless they are injured Wonder if Eurosport will be showing this fixture now the other match is off?
  6. Thought of a new initiative this morning - ‘The Holiday KO Cup’ Riders who work so hard for our entertainment should be granted at least 3 riders to go on holiday for these matches for some time off and be replaced by guests during the season. I can really see this one catching on.
  7. You can’t see the issue? Take your rose tinted specs off for once and then you might. what would of happened if let’s say Adam Ellis either couldn’t ride in the SWC or wasn’t picked and Worrall was next in line being a squad rider - would he still be on holiday? Same goes for Douglas. Joke situation. I’ll also add, when was this fixture put into the fixture list? You can often move holidays for no additional costs quite close to the actual date of departure.
  8. Very surprised by this but a welcome addition to the league. A very capable young man who isn’t afraid of tracks which aren’t like a snooker table. Looking forward to seeing how he goes but I think he will be pretty decent.
  9. Precisely this. If they have stopped using the product already then they have either stopped caring or began to care less and less. They have to start getting fans to care again with a good product first and foremost.
  10. I’m not sure that’s strictly true. Laguta is and always has been the type of rider who is electric from the start and won’t be overtaken - it’s basically how he won his world title. He’s never going to be an all action from the back type rider over here as he isn’t even that in Poland.
  11. I’m not saying it is a speedway thing - but the point I’m making is we are quick to judge the ones who done wrong, but why not let us know about the ones who done right aswell?
  12. Imagine what Chris Harris must be like - he must of lost count!
  13. In an effort to be as transparent as possible, I wonder why we only hear about the ones who have failed to complete the process as opposed to those who pass with flying colours?
  14. Originally the Poles (or Latvians in this case) thought he would be able to ride in Poland but that has since changed and he is banned worldwide currently.
  15. I would expect them to say they are very concerned about the accusation and the ban handed out. They will now be speaking with the SCB to find out exactly what the ruling means and clarification on how long Nick Morris could likely be banned for and off the back of this they will then look at any decisions that need to be made with the team. They should absolutely want to distance themself from anybody not playing by the correct rules and criteria and will wait for the outcome of the SCB hearing but remain committed to fielding the best team possible on track at their next match and beyond…. That’s what I would expect and hope for, something along those lines - not silence.
  16. I find it mind blowing Leicester haven’t made a statement on this - all they have done is share the SCB news bulletin. One of your riders has just been banned for a serious offence and they’ve said nothing!!! It honestly frustrates me how bad some of these promotions are at communication and it’s not even my team.
  17. Utter rubbish - regardless of whose fault it was, you put on a sub standard product then you can’t expect people to pay for it… and if you do expect that, don’t expect them to return in the future, which has for a long time been speedway’s biggest issue. I myself provide a service to my customers on a daily service and if I provided a poor product or service, then I wouldn’t expect people to pay me just because it might mean my business would close. It’s down to me to keep my customer’s happy.
  18. Which is equal to nothing - no explanation at all.
  19. So we are nearly 17/18 hours after the alleged incident happened - and we have still heard nothing. That is poor to say the least.
  20. It’s quite possible that Brady was happy to break even whereas Buster isn’t happy unless he is making money, which is what he would want from the TV money? Interesting to know how much the TV money is, as others previously quoted that it was peanuts.
