Even though clubs are folding and have folded because people don't do,,, people still are not and won't be going. When it's said use or lose it,, some would still rather lose it. That's how little appeal speedway has now.
I certainly think the racing may be a bit more closely looking with the witches riders trying to chase dowm their opposition, but I think less passes will be made. So I'm not sure if that's classed as better racing or not.
The racing can be as bad with a higher class of rider,,, the track plays a big part. The Nss is more or less guaranteed to have good racing,, Foxhall isnt
I've always found it strange that a big win in speedway is often seen as boring, but in football or rugby and many team sports a big win is seen different.
As I've said, some fans will turn up for anything at any price.
Can you imagine going to a football cup match and the crowd the decide who takes the penalties for your team.
I know this will sound a bit harsh but,, if anyone pays money to go and watch these meetings they doing speedway no favours at all. It really does show those in charge can do anything they want and people will still turn up and watch it. People like that are a big reason why speedway is nearly dead.
Oh didn't know that,,, the few times I did go I always paid cash as didn't know they took card. That's handy to know as always had to stop at a cash mashine before hand.
Yet another reason why team speedway isn't taken seriously by anyone outside of speedway,, actually its not taken seriously by many of us within either. What a totally useless idea
Maybe people should refrain from positive posts about the team, at least give the lads a chance to prove how poor they are
Seriously though, nothing worse than people telling others what they should be doing.
