Roynon has conjured up his own phrase."Power Wheelie".

I've found watching bsn is so much better with the sound off.

Is that like reading this forum with your eyes closed? 

[Bald Bloke]

Do they still do one off meetings. I cant seem to find them. just the packages

 

[IainB]

IT'S ALL BECOME VERY SHOUTY RECENTLY 

[LesR]

I agree, maybe they think they can emulate the late Nigel Pearson? Unfortunately not.

[Fromafar]

Roynon comes out with some rubbish during a race.Really needs replaced IMO.

I agree especially when Schlein's on him and Brannan seem to have a competition to see who can shout the loudest.

I had the neighbours banging on the wall the other night it was so loud... at least that's what I think they were doing 😬

Volume needs reducing on your tv.

Don't have any complaints about BSN .  The only thing I would say is that the pits camera man needs to move about more instead of getting fixed on one particular thing. On recent meetings he's been fixed on a particular rider sat in his stall and on another occasion he's fixed on a bike, please tell him to move about a bit more and show more of whats going on in the pits

I think your spot on.

What's all this Facebook Live business from BSN all of a sudden? The least I expect is to hear from the victors before they end transmission. If they're going to do this they should simulcast it like they did in the build up to the pairs. Not everybody is on Facebook

"2026 Season

With the 2026 Season fast approaching, we would like to keep our customers informed of the current situation. With the well-publicised delay to the British Speedway AGM, our arrangements for the new season have been pushed back later than usual.

We are currently in talks to confirm a new contract and building new packages alongside the BSPL  to bring even more speedway to your living room for 2026. 

BSN remains fully committed to British Speedway and excited for the season ahead. As soon as we have further clarity, we’ll announce our plans and 2026 pricing via our socials, website, and email."

Looks like things are far from settled for the 2026 season. I wonder if BSPL are looking to make up some shortfall in lost TV money from BSN?

A fixture list, or two, might help.....😄

Just goes to prove the BSPL don't fully know how many clubs are coming to tapes in the top league.

Headboard hitting the bedroom wall mate. Too much thrust.😂

[TheWellBehavedWorrall]

Credit to BSN for wanting to keep their customers informed.

If the BSPL had any credibility, I’d say the lack of transparency and information was disappointing, but they’re not, so it isn’t.

[Dave_minall]

I read the press release as that they would be in charge of the premiership in 26 because the powers that be haven't found a commercial partner.

I know there's a lot of positive feedback about BSN but personally I think it's still a bit ropey to me. I watched the free stream from Ipswich and one of the races was viewed entirely from the start line cam so you could only see the riders for about 3 seconds per lap 😂

You need to watch much more of the coverage then. Far from ropey across the season.
