Isn't it forecast to rain all day then snow in the evening, followed by a hurricane? -
I agree about all the boring nothing going on during the evening, it's part of many issues speedway has. First and foremost what mustn't happen is current fans that go week in week put off going. I've gone nearly every week for 40 years...up until recently...the last couple of seasons has seen me go to half a dozen. They need to keep the likes of me going an find new fans.
-
But it's only current fans that go and watch....no one else really cares or even knows what speedway is.

Cook was there for anyone to sign, maybe if they asked. So good on Glasgow for showing the ambition to try and win, it's better than rr and guests for half a season or more. -

Wonder if Nathan managed to get the massif trophy to anyone to bring down. It's nearly time for it to find a new home. -
Ipswich V Berwick
Baldyman replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Not for me...I don't have any...so they have a choice ...I will go once for 16 or they could say charge me a bit more for both meetings. Depends if they want extra money from me..and I'm probably not the only one.. Oh and a fair few also go to Mildenhall...could they afford Thursday Saturday and Sunday? -

Someone one said to me earlier ...it would be good if they done a deal..both Thursday and Saturday for say 20 or 25 quid, as not all of us have plenty of dosh waiting to be used up. -
With rumours of only 2 divisions next season...the scorpions maybe in the top flight...or would you prefer conference?

Is speedways refund policy even legal?
Baldyman replied to dontforgetthefueltapsbruv's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I just don't get that you are basically charged more for the races you don't see. Like I put on another thread...if only one race is completed you only get a 9 quid discount next time....and at 16 to get in that on race cost you 7 quid. Totally bonkers. Oh and i didn't go to ipswich Thursday cos I just knew I would get mugged off, just like I was a couple of weeks before. I now have a policy that if it's been raining or there is a prospect of rain I won't be going. I'm no longer willing to lose an hours pay at work and the travel costs cos I don't live in Ipswich and lose money on what I might or might not see. -
I don't like your attitude young man....you have never been there..done it or got the t shirt. I've told you before..shut up pay up and stop questioning things.
-
Any idea of how many teams that would be??? Hopefully as many as possible, somewhere between 16 to 20 would be good...with speedway every week during the season..

No one knew before the fixtures were planned that this was going to be the hottest driest summer on record..and i guess going by history August's weather is normally pretty good...and with school break up its probably usually the most lucrative month to hold speedway meetings...unfortunately it didn't work out that way....but hey..hindsight is a wonderful thing -

But however you want to rose tint it...you are mugged off for turning up to a cancelled meeting, the worst scenario the one I put. -
Ipswich V Berwick
Baldyman replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
So if one race is raced you get a 9 pound off next meeting...so that race cost you 7 pound ...wow just wow. Big thanks to Rory and cook for not giving it a go the other week. Saved us all a lot of money -

Baldyman replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
So why would anyone bother going when threat of rain? That's an even worse refund policy. So it's normally 1.07 a heat, but if you are silly enough to go when it's a threat of rain and called off...you then get the pleasure of paying 1.33 per heat. Wow. That's why I stayed home -

Baldyman replied to allthegearbutnaeidea's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Cos if it's the way in the report...then would be 16 quid then 10 quid...so 26 pound...that doesn't seem right. Must be 9 pound off surely. Easy option...get a full refund...then pay 16 next time. What you would expect though..is a professional sports team to know their refund policy?????? Or is that too much to ask? -
