Many on here bemoan the lack of weekly Speedway, however... Four meetings out of a months salary is a fair chunk of it for many... Personally, I think every fortnight hits a "sweet spot"..

A lot of people have a BSN season pass, so will now watch it at home getting there moneysworth rather than attend the meeting. Probably be a different audience for the live stream. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yes, but surely they could have streamed meetings from teams further afield as said a lot of people have a BSN package and will probably decide to stay at home instead of attending a "local derby " Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This season it will be Edinburgh, Redcar and Workington. As you say, all local derbies. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you were a Redcar or Workington supporter and had a BSN package would you pay extra expense ? I'm assuming some will but some won't Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm assuming some will but some won't What I mean is the management could be banking on some Redcar/Workington supporters still coming up, meanwhile the further away fans might be more inclined to get Bandits TV which could overall make more money instead of the further away fans just getting BSN. Its the only explaination I can come up with. You do miss out on a big crowd and increased atmosphere for the locals which is a shame though, saw it at Glasgow earlier this season against Berwick when BSN were up, expecting a full crowd but it was half empty 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
