Racin Jason 72 Posted 19 hours ago Report Share Posted 19 hours ago You can see why Chris Louis has run off. I’m sure this certainly didnt align with his views of how the sport should present itself 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

topaz325 Posted 19 hours ago Report Share Posted 19 hours ago Probably about right for speedway the type of celebrity a PVC window company would use. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hackett Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago Totally Embarrassing. You wonder who signed that off !! Rumour has it that the Sex Pistols will dress up as Cradley Heath Heathens for the next campaign. BSPL are lining up JVC Video to be Cup Sponsors.

TheScotsman Posted 16 hours ago Report Share Posted 16 hours ago The event was a bit naff but so is speedway nowadays. And as for getting Linda Lusardi to do it.... Why not? It needed to be someone the speedway punters could relate to, and is there a better looking lass about their age group? I read she's 67 - amazing! She wasn't flaunting herself and remember she even had a part in the Detectorists series Better than getting some jumped up Gen Z or geriatric ex-rider to do it. But I'm slightly surprised she even agreed to do it - speedway is never going to boost her image - quite the reverse. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems she only done it for money, as she and other past "celebrity's" sell greetings through various online companies, see link earlier on, prices start at £27 . A mate of mines wife bought him a birthday wish off a past man utd player, posted a message online to wish him a happy birthday cost £25 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ben91 Posted 5 hours ago Report Share Posted 5 hours ago 21 hours ago, RoundTheBoards said: Why??? Who thought this was a good idea? I'm sure it was Rob Godfrey's wet dream to see inside her Travelodge room, but what in the name of Jesus's bicycle clips?????? This is symptomatic of the state British Speedway is in. The advertising budget stretched to a cameo video and a paper bag with some scraps of paper in it. Getting a celebrity to host the draw. Great idea. Where's the celebrity? Not knocking Linda Lusardi but she just isn't the person to be promoting Speedway in 2026. Within Cameo's ranks there are more famous people. But a Cameo video itself is tinpot to the max. To make it work and to draw new eyes you have to collaborate with someone who has a social media following. They need to post it on their socials so that their audience sees it and may be intrigued. Not stick a Cameo video of them on your own social media reaching the same people who already follow you. Funnily enough there is a high profile celebrity who now has skin in the game and a solid social media following. Harry Redknapp. Considering he is invested in the sport I'm sure he'd have done it for free. It would have reached a bigger audience and any benefit from it helps the sport and Harry's investment in the same breath. 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think most people think, that what they did was harmless enough but was entirely symbolic of the thinking that runs Speedway in this country and it was all summed up in one short video.

scunny1 Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Well at least she is still presentable. We could have had Katie Price do it( between marriages and house moves) for a much cheaper price🤣 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Littleze Posted 15 minutes ago Report Share Posted 15 minutes ago I’ve just caught up on this, my effing god! Someone sat down and actually thought & spent their time coming up with this. They should have put one of the traffic cones they use to keep the tapes up and put it on her head, for a bit more authenticity Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
