That’s if they were actual sold, some maybe just reserved for BSPL. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bald Bloke Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago For me, the worst thing about British speedway on TV is the crowds. It's sad to see. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ShanoXtra Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago If I were a Belle Vue fan I’d be embarrassed slightly. Bewley is going for x4 times and you can’t make the effort. I promise you if I had Grand Prix and British speedway at foxhall (would never happen!) I’d be at both and all league meetings… the feeling of being at a speedway event is brilliant. Manchester stuck up as far as possible for any witches fans to make the journey on a Monday! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flyers on windscreens anyone ?? "A healthy crowd in" just been quoted.. Easily three figures I would say....😉 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWellBehavedWorrall Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Big win for Harris. Crowd-wise, it doesn’t help it’s a Monday night. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 3000 or so BV fans or will have paid around £200 for the GP's.. And also get to see the best line up of the season domestically at the PCMM, for less.... Daft idea to hold it at the NSS this year given the GP is around the corner.. Should have held it at a Championship track as the likes of Bewley and Lambert would be a pull for a tier 2 club's fans.. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishersGate Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago I'd love to go the british final, but not at the same venue everytime. Not worth the effort. Needs to be shared around country 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TTT Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago Crowd maybe non-existent but it's still a better watch than seeing a bang average rider in Piotr Pawlicki scoring Paid Maximum's on a Polish carpet rug track every week in the Ekstraliga. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have held it at a Championship track as the likes of Bewley and Lambert would be a pull for a tier 2 club's fans.. Granted they would pay for the Grand Prix but it’s only another £25 or whatever to watch the British final. It’s not a massive amount to experience another meeting. Totally agree with it being held somewhere else though. Needs to be more central for all fans. Not just for the north west speedway fans. This is when it would be perfect to have a new stadium for Coventry Bees to hold it! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd have thought they would have closed the main stand down and moved everybody over to the back straight... the opposite of what they do with the Colts meetings.
