  1. Maybe new cars and mortgage payments??? Obviously none was put back into the sport.
  2. But what did they spend the millions on??? Certainly wasn't things like track covers and stadiums..or promoting the sport .
  3. What happened to Kk?? What's happened to the the troll tonight??
  4. Not so sure about that.....British touring cars is becoming very well supported again since they made the racing even more closer by boost control and success ballast.
  5. Some great info from the Isle of Wight bloke....makes me want to go and check it out next season. People like him deserve to be a success.
  6. Well I think that's something all clubs should take on...and the best ideas implemented across the country..
  7. Do they?? I didn't know that....and how is that working?? If they can't think of what would enhance their chances of attending..then a few old duffers don't stand a chance.
  8. It probably would be more attractive if other things went on as well. These teenagers are the play station generation and smart phone generation. They are used to everything being there instantly at a touch of a button and hit reset if they don't like it. A speedway meeting is a drawn out borefest for most of the 2 and a bit hours you are there. Maybe they should take a group of youngsters..and ask them how to improve an evening at the speedway and what would make them want to up. Like some sort of focus group.
  9. If he is your number 1 then you need to have a couple of reserves that can score a lot of points...but still don't think that will help that much in the last few heats. Maybe they need to say sorry to a couple that you already have and change the lay out of the team.
  10. It's a hard task getting the youngsters in though, if they are just not interested at all. There is obviously a stigma that needs to be lost before youngsters at least think about giving it a go.
  11. I do enjoy a good wind up..and poole fans always seem up for the challenge to their credit. I don't take speedway or life too seriously.....grumpy fans do my swede in.
  12. Nor do I really....but does that mean the other promotions are a bit slow??
  13. But we have to blame someone...it would be boring on here otherwise.
  14. A load of us at ipswich are trying to drag it forward with our loud obnoxious supporting...not sure all the oldies dislike it..but one did complian we were too noisy and putting her off her knitting. I asked my other half's 14 year old if he wanted to come to a match once....he said...nah its full of old people...and boring. Also....why do you go..you are far to cool for that.
  15. Poole or their fans don't care at what cost..as long as it's them that win.
  16. I thought you had a huge number one coming in that the rest of the league was going to be scared of??? Oh no the troll got it wrong...doh
  17. One thing that has been made pretty clear to me over the last few seasons of the so called better riders riding in the second division..is that the standard is now a lot higher..but I haven't seen the crowds go up accordingly...I've read alot about strengthening the product will bring fans back...it really hasn't been the case at all....so that myth has completely burst in my eyes.
  18. Holder doesn't want to ride for poole..and won't be riding for poole....he will be at somerset with his brother...as was mentioned a couple of month's ago...but for some reason poole fans don't seem to get that not everyone wants to ride for poole. Having said that.....they are probably nearly all the same bloke anyway.
  19. I don't really care what he does or doesn't average..I just wished they would stop changing the bloody rules all the time
  20. As a co promoter...What's he going to do to promote the club?
  21. So should that now x 1.3? So 6.45 in this league
  22. Exactly..its not a hard thing to do....but this is speedway and the last thing anybody wants is it to be a fair and open sport that's not open to fiddling or making things up.
