Belle Vue are piss poor supported really, the stadium half empty is slightly embarrassing as such a massive city, and the fact even the SGP doesn’t sell out. Best track deffo in the wrong location in the country!

Ipswich fan can’t comment on an empty looking stadium place is full of empty seats

Yeah but we can’t sell out 10,000, Belle Vue can’t get half full 3,500 or whatever the mini stadium holds without a temp stand 😂 Ipswich are the only club who actually gets a good crowd.

Too many counter attractions and piss poorly publicised to even try and get people there...

Loads of pro football clubs in Grt Manchester, and several non League ones that themselves can get big four figure crowds..

Then add professional Rugby League and Union, Cricket, Ice Hockey, Basketball, Women's pro football, and even Netball, and getting a crowd on a Monday will be a challenge ..

Plus, six teams in a league where winning has little reward, is hardly worth being interested in...

Pointless excuses. Everywhere on the country you can say people could spend the money elsewhere. It’s simple that Manchester just doesn’t have good speedway support. If you like something you make the time or money to go. If people prioritise other sports then it’s exactly what I said, poor support.

Ask yourself why there is no tracks in London (or Birmingham now) exactly same reason. 
 

for tonight I know lot of people who haven’t come because they got the BSN season pass. Lot more people got the season pass this year due to no TV, so you basically paying about £10 for the BSN  and then paying to attend also.

It's Speedway and Tractor Shows in Ipswich isn't it?😁

The hammering of Ipswich predicted doesn't look like it is happening...😮

Because you can build multiple houses on an area the size of a speedway stadium in London and sell them for millions too.

I know loads of people who have BSN, season ticket at Portman Rd and go to every Witches meeting at home… what’s your point?

I’m still waiting to see this gung ho swashbuckling rider who scrapes the boards and stretches the throttle cable attempting to get around riders (his own words). The first couple of meetings all I’ve seen is an inside/mid track steady Eddie who looks content to hold the place he’s occupying. 
 

Now before anyone jumps on my back, of course it’s only two meetings in and he’s feeling his way in to British Speedway and getting used to things, but I’ll admit I was expecting a different style to what I’ve seen in the first couple of meetings. 
 

Perhaps today is the day? The wide open spaces of the NSS should suit him down to the ground. 

Nope,,, not today so far
