Have met him a few times out and about Town and he’s always got time to stop and chat about the Speedway, football, or anything else! BUT, I do agree with you when it comes to presenting unfortunately. The sign of a good presenter is the skill to make the most boring meetings sound exciting. Foz doesn’t do that and always sounds like he’s just woken up. A top bloke and the number 1 DJ and all round music bod in this area by some distance. However, from a presenting perspective he sounds like he's at a village fete. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ouch Posted yesterday at 06:55 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 06:55 AM (edited) 11 hours ago, mikebv said: Just had an email to renew my season ticket at United for £35 a match... Hmmmm.. £35 to watch around 65 mins of Premier League football, which is authentic, has jeapordy, has consequence, prizes worth winning, and no Mickey Mouse operating model, or £30, (or "just" £25 in the pauper seats), to watch 15 mins of Premiership Speedway without any of the attributes a team sport requires... Decisions, Decisions... Just had an email to renew my season ticket at The Aces for £22.50 a match... Hmmmm.. £22.50 to watch around 90 mins of Premiership speedway, which is exciting , has drama, has a your team feel, prizes worth winning (£500 50/50 draw), and a consistent operating model, or £59, to watch 3 or 4 mins (depending on how many goals) of interesting Premier League football with the only drama being when someone pretends to hurt his toe. Decisions, Decisions... Whilst the football league are happy to pay 18 million a year on blokes that can walk down a street (mine away) unnoticed whilst still being 1.8 billion in debt is crazy and it’s only the fans that continue to point this out whilst these rich hobbyists carry on a debt path that will ultimately collapse. Easy this isn’t it. I think I’ll buy myself a new keyboard, now where’s cut & paste for next time and the next and the next.

Stephen Foster is the Presenter.. FFS,, that's me put off already. He is totally the opposite of what's needed at a speedway meeting. Awful decision As for 25 quid,, wow,, they really are pushing the limits of what people are prepared to pay surely. Good luck to Northampton trying to attract new fans to watch on an untested track at that price Edited 21 hours ago by Baldyman 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cowboy cookie returns? Posted 19 hours ago Report Share Posted 19 hours ago I have nothing against Stephen Foster. He has done wonders with getting speedway on the radio & plugs the sport when he gets the chance. Also he is a great guys. Its just when it comes to presenting I’d rather listen to the sound of paint drying!! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
