I think he means BSPA or it could be BSN. whatever/whichever Speedway Futures Ltd is a business in which BSPA has significant shareholding alongside ten other vested shareholders. BSN is 100% independent of BSPA and is the trading name of Exstream Media Ltd who have two shareholders neither of who have shareholding in Speedway Futures Ltd. As such JH was well wide of the mark with his comment/observation. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
R87 Posted yesterday at 05:52 PM Report Share Posted yesterday at 05:52 PM 3 hours ago, SPEEDY69 said: Ha, not sure you were being intentionally funny. BSN has provided me the ability to watch meetings I would never have attended, different teams from across the UK and keep my interest in the sport up. Football is on TV all the time and stadiums are not empty. Fans will watch a game from a foreign league, because it's football and it creates talking points. As long as the hosting club is getting a share then it makes great sense to me. What should be on offer though is even more for those attending in person - the analysis, interviews, stats provision etc. otherwise it does sometimes feel like you're more involved if you're not there. You get pits views, reaction interviews, stats on performance etc. which the attendee does not, and they've paid more for it! If i want to go to a meeting I go to the venue. I will never spend a penny on some cheap and nasty production that's probably as polished as the second rate vcrs thag were being knocked out in the 80s.

Nobody is asking you to spend any money on a "cheap and nasty production". I'm not aware that there are any available, anyway. You sound like a very bitter person who doesn't really like Speedway at all. But sensible people regard BSN as a superb service, which provides people with the opportunity to watch the sport they love. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So we have to have a race to the bottom because people want to find excuses not to bother travelling then? Brilliant. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shame you said the exact opposite three months ago.... I choose to only go to Belle Vue as it's the only track in the UK that is worth going to. My comment stands though. If I wanted to go to any other track, I would not snub it just to pay a kings ransom just to sit in front of a computer and watch it 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WookieboyDon Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago R87 is just a wind-up merchant looking for attention. Everything that he says is complete boll*cks and as someone quite rightly pointed out, he is a liar. The contradictions are laughable. Bizarre that he spends time on a forum about a sport that he continually derides and can’t be more negative about. Such odd behaviour. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
