Wow really, that's worth a few grand. Can't believe your hand wasn't snapped off

Can I ask what you were offering? Was it money towards engine work, or a specific engine tuner/service?

Let's hope it starts on time, wouldn't want people moaning.

What time does it start????

It's not the likes of me that need tempting back, I've done my 40 years of every week without fail. Its the next lot that will do that which are the ones that need tempting.

I'm sure last year he upped his average even more than he achieved at Glasgow.

I agree it is a bit daft, but that's speedway for ya.

Yeah the parade starts at 7.30 as advertised

Well done James, you are the perfect speedway supporter that most clubs need more of. Long may you continue.

Exactly. Kick off is at 3 so you kick off at 3 . So first race, not start of meeting is at 7.45 and is. Meeting starts at 7.30, which it does, it starts with the parade. Not anywhere does it say racing starts at 7.30.

I'm guessing it's because they class the introductions as part of the meeting, so the meeting starts at 7.30 and the racing starts at 7.45. I've always thought it a bit daft myself, but on the plus side, you never miss the start of the racing.

It starts on time. First race always 7.45

What can't you believe??? It is a better track and the racing is better.

One was against ipswich...better track better racing.

Can't blame them, I don't pay to watch them anymore

I haven't been to watch my team for a couple of months on their home track, and only once away in that time. I've totally lost interest in watchin live speedway.

Charging more than prem club double headers I don't see as good value, but that's obviously just me. Luckily thousands will turn up to watch something so great value.

I was just comparing it to what other teams have been charging for their double headers.

Obviously haven't seen what others have been charging for a double header.

30 quid on the gate? Wow.

I like the speedway, which is why I'm watching it, I just watch it a couple of days later so I can hit the fast forward button lots.

Glad to hear it, well I won't, but those that remain will be glad to hear it.

I just looked at the loose change in my pockets..not a 20 to be seen anywhere. Oh and 20 is a lot to me, but that's not the reason I stopped going.

Those 2 are the biggest thing I dislike about speedway on TV

I don't know how to put speedway right, but I think one of its biggest problems is it's a motorbike sport, that has no real relevance to motorbikes as such. Go to other motorbike events and there will be hundreds, often thousands of motorbikes in the car park. At speedway you may be lucky to see 4 or 5. If you can't get bikers into a bike sport, then how you gonna get non bikers. Having said that, most people that watch speedway are non bikers. Maybe speedway needs to change to to bike parts or engines that bikers know of and can affiliate with. And what is that non bikers like about speedway?. Or is it just that their dad took them when they were younger and the still go?
