Yeah I know they can be found with some digging, but again it is another site, with poor UI/UX, which is fine if you are a stats enthusiast, but not if you are someone who wants something quick and easy and visually pleasing.

Granted. It was setup in the quickest and cheapest way we could, just to get the data available - as nothing existed at the time.

It would be much better presented in a database format with a pretty front end UI, but that takes time, money and effort that I can't give it.

Sorry if that comes across as me criticising what you have done, as I know how time consuming setting up databases and collecting databases can be. I am trying to do that pretty front end now and you are correct, it does take a lot of time, but hopefully I can find the time to get it done

No problem at all. Hopefully someone can use the data and present it in a far more accessible and intuitive way.

I agree with you, physical media and the real thing is always the best - put it this way, I wouldn't buy the digital version of the Speedway Star, but I will buy the physical copy. I am just trying to think of ways to make the sport easier to follow and understand for new and existing fans. If you could see all the scores, news, tables, rider profiles, etc in one space, it makes it easier to learn about the sport. 

I’m definitely not a tech person but I do get my speedway star digitally and have done for 4 years now. 
used to go to the newsagent early on a Thursday morning and hope it was in. On a bank holiday it would sometimes be Saturday before a got it. 
none of that now. Straight to my phone on midnight Wednesday.  I can read it anywhere and anytime. 
suits me perfectly but I completely understand why many prefer the magazine option

Maybe they could develop a forum that is administered and moderated efficiently 😂

Free of so many ADVERTS. 🤬

Please note - I am not saying no Adverts, just not so many.

I don't see any adverts... do you use an ad blocker?
