  1. As long as the gp are shown...then I'm happy with that..not worried about team speedway being shown.
  2. Wouldn't the TV viewing figure be better if that was the case??? It's not very well watched. Its just reaching the end of its life...and that's all these is to it.
  3. I just don't see it ever stopping declining....the world has moved on to other things. Everything has a shelf life and team speedway in Britain has reached its sell by date.
  4. OIt's sad to say...but I don't ever see team speedway becoming a big thing ever again in this country anyway. The youth of today are totally different to what most of us were when we were that age. And it's not just the youth..its the 20 and 30 somethings too. Most seem to do not much else than stay in there bedrooms on their play stations and talk to their friends on head sets whilst doing so. I don't see much about team speedway that would have any interest at all to them. I also know of many people like myself of my age that have fallen out of love with it to...the fourty somethings.
  5. With the greater attendance with new and returning fans...it should have been a good opportunity to do a survey on why the new fans went and the old ones returned and what would be needed to be done to get them to come back again...and actually ask people what they would be prepared to pay on a weekly basis
  6. Depends on your market surely. If your company produced or sold incontinence pants or mobility scooters then probably not....but if it's something young and trendy then yes I would. That look is very much a part of today's society.
  7. Did any Coventry fans go to watch at wolves or Leicester or Peterborough last season??? Surely some did which would have boosted the crowds at those tracks
  8. He is one rider I shall definitely look forward to seeing on my travels
  9. Not sure I've ever seen kyle race...so is he a gater? Dirt chaser? white liner? Or a mixture?
  10. Why wouldn't he come across well...he was representing himself.
  11. I bet the sales of baby wipes and tissues are at an all time high in the poole area today
  12. The whole post was meant to be tongue in cheek....Obviously lost in translation... I'm obviously younger than you and have a different sense of humour. My apologies to anyone old or anyone else that may have found it not to their sense of humour.
  13. But he also lost to Rory twice and Danny twice and newman once.
  14. More pensioners.....just what the sport is crying out for. Maybe they can get Tena and some funeral services to become sponsors
  15. If it was cheaper..do you think more people would go???? I'm not sure they would...not in enough numbers to counter act the price drop...those that rent stadiums won't see their rent go down to compensate lower admission prices...and would lower admission prices make the sport any more appealing and cooler???? again..I don't really think so. The whole thing needs completely re branding to create a new and different audience to the one it attracts now.....and even that may not be enough...but maybe just maybe it might.
  16. You see that at most tracks...they all walk towards the exit before heat 15 and then rush out of the gate on lap 4 of heat 15..but a fair few do it and they then sit in traffic. The daft thing though is even if everyone leaves at the same time..it barely takes 2 mins to get out of car park since so few people go .
  17. Don't think he has enough fingers and toes.
  18. He is a Suffolk lad...they still have steam tractors
  19. So who will be first out the door??? Toft or Grondal, maybe both together
  20. He did have one very good meeting yes...not don't anything of note since. Most riders have had at least one good meeting at foxhall...even klindt did about 10 years ago
  21. I'm sure ged will make plenty once the season has started..if the past is anything to go by.
  22. We call him Back...cos that's where he will be spending most of his time...at the back
  23. When morten first come over to England..he really did look like he could make it big...Unfortunately that didn't work out. Good luck to morten in his future.
  24. Can see a lot of close scores at home..Maybe losing out a few times in the last few heats. With jump starts being allowed..that will help back and klindt.
