I’m not sure he was underwriting the losses but he was part of the promotion and obviously put money in Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yup, my bad! Good spot. I would like to predict Northampton's first season as a successful one both on and off track. 👌 Edited Saturday at 10:52 AM by SpeedwayPortal 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OGT Posted Saturday at 10:50 AM Report Share Posted Saturday at 10:50 AM 23 hours ago, TheSmiler said: The sport is really missing a trick in not getting involved in “vlogger” culture. Imagine having dedicated vlogs to drum up interest and offer a behind the scenes look at what it takes to prepare for a season. Insight into a rider’s daily life etc. It would enhance the interest incredibly. Tik Tok is a very useful tool for sports clubs. All it takes is a video to go viral and boom. I went to see Deftones at the NEC a couple of months back and I couldn't believe how many youngsters were there. They've been together for over 30 years, but they're not really big these days. Turns out one of their songs was used in a TikTok video that went viral and now they're appealing to a whole new audience. Maybe the BSPL should get a band together. I wonder what they'd be called 🤔 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Exactly, its a nod to their history, although I'd have preferred Badgers! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
