Best line that I've ever read on here!

Don't forget those sewn on badges 'Happiness is 40-38' !

Your profile has brought that one to mind? 😀

What of it! There's absolutely nothing wrong with owning one of these. It's quite normal! 😜😂

So does that mean they will choose the less attractive fixtures for streaming so as not to have a negative effect on the gate ?, that would be the kind of thought process the BSPL seem to specialise in.

How can you tell what is going to be an attractive fixture these days,most of the time you can’t  even predict the Teams.

I find it easier, because:

a] social media is constantly updating me

b] the Internet makes it far far easier to know when and where riders are committed abroad.

It would help if BSN were a bit more selective with their fixtures.

Its near on impossible to choose which fixtures will be the best.  Sometimes the less fancied fixtures are the best.  As far as I know BSN are contracted to show two fixtures from each track plus KO cup matches which will make choosing specific matches harder to do.

Surely it'd make the best sense to choose matches that fans find the most difficult to get to, Glasgow vs Poole, Plymouth vs Edinburgh, Belle Vue vs Ippo etc. obviously there's only so many of these you can do and maybe clubs that do their own streams will want to prioritise these as their big sellers?

No, but I am considerably better informed about the issues surrounding the likelihood or not of his appearance.

 

In the 'good old days' we'd probably told he was definitely riding and only discover otherwise at 7.29.

Edit: and thanks to the Internet I now can. He's not. In the olden days that news would probably not have reached most fans before arriving at the venue, but now it is in the public domain which rather proves my point.

I don't know what the choices are for the Championships matches.  I was speaking about the Premiership meetings.
