Yes, but... what are they fans of? Guests turning up every week? Insult to the intelligence excuses from riders (and promoters) for not turning up to ride? Your club promoting themselves to a higher league with zero call for this from the fans? Your club changing race nights from a well attended Saturday to a poorly attended Monday? I could go on but we all know the issues with the sport and instead of addressing these some promotions point the finger at the fans 👉 Not all fans look for the same thing in Speedway, you know this from reading comments about your own club, with some saying they'd effectively follow Chris Louis of the cliff! Me, I'm always there because I love my Speedway, success is a bonus, maybe that's because I was brought up on the Lions of the late 70's and early 80's where success was a foreign concept 😂

Many in the past... and my own Leicester Lions during the Bates era

tbf I don't think anybody else is interested... we have enough of our own problems to discuss without expending energy on Poland's first world problems. And some clubs do crow, instead of looking at themselves they reach for the gun and hold it to the fans heads, instead of running to a budget they can afford in a league that is sustainable for them on a race night that brings in their best crowd.

Respect to them until the ** go up and they start crowing about if you don't come you'll lose it or worse still go bust mid season, then they're left with an "asset" that nobody wants to buy... and that must sound familiar, especially to you guys currently down in Suffolk. And you don't see much criticism of the Polish operating model on this forum as it's the British Speedway Forum and most are posting about the issues facing British clubs and not Polish ones.

I don't know why people keep insisting there's not enough riders for one league when there clearly are and it would be competitive with some innovative outside the box thinking. Whether there would be in a year or two with the way the NDL has gone is another matter.

Championship KO Cup Draw
IainB replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Didn't he compete in some kind a Japanese speedway variant on one of his programmes in Japan and as far as I can remember didn't even mention speedway and it was so similar you couldn't have not mentioned it... so maybe he's not aware of it like 99.999999% of the rest of the population 🤷♂️ -
Aussie won the SoN though... how does that get you seeded to the SWC final 🤷♂️
-
Their approach should be to get back down into the CL and back to running on a Saturday night.
-
Some kind of Flat Track type thing I think
-
Should have used ai 😂

No!?! You've just ruined my day... away ay, day away, day...

Surely it'd be infinitely easier to continue to run Ippo if the sale fell through rather than start a new operation in Northampton
-
Brian Cant? Keith Deller?
-
Leicester always seemed 2nd best when they were in the same league as Sheffield under the Bates
-
So an unsigned "number 1" could hold the whole club to ransom? Not a great position to be in 🤔

You could look at scraping data from an existing website using something like JSON, Python or Excel Power Query.

Do you think he'd record a video shouting "Speedway W@nkers" at us 🤔 -
Just a note... I'm not available for logo design, please use @Dave_minall and definitely do not use ai 😂

Hey... I'm not a professional 😂

Speedway club ignores correspondence from speedway fan offering help... surely not 😂

Don't worry, things are happening "behind the scenes" and there's 2 big things happening, one is 99% (that could have been Linda Lucardigate) and the other 90% and if they both come off... Speedway in the UK will be just like Polish Speedway, and you can take that to the bank 😂
