00:00 - 00:03 | It's all looking a bit grim for 2020, Sir... |
00:04 - 00:05 | More tracks are closing... |
00:05 - 00:07 | Clubs are proposing regionalisation |
00:08 - 00:12 | There's talk of one big league again. |
00:12 - 00:15 | Cradley are track-sharing near Berlin |
00:17 - 00:19 | I thought we had a new TV deal? |
00:19 - 00:21 | What about the crowd levels? |
00:24 - 00:26 | I'm afraid... |
00:27 - 00:28 | they are... |
00:31 - 00:33 | No-one's coming to watch anymore |
00:34 - 00:36 | Even Poole want to go Second Division |
00:53 - 00:58 | Right. National League promoters get out. |
01:13 - 01:15 | How many clubs do you expect me to save? |
01:15 - 01:17 | Are you the only promoters left? |
01:18 - 01:23 | How many riders out there are doubling up? |
01:25 - 01:28 | Denise in the office said we'd be fine. |
01:29 - 01:31 | Just lower the points limit, she said |
01:31 - 01:34 | Whatever happened to Oxford, Exeter... |
01:34 - 01:37 | Halifax, Reading, Coventry... |
01:37 - 01:40 | Where have the decent clubs gone? |
01:40 - 01:42 | Sir, the stadiums are all being demolished. |
01:42 - 01:46 | You said there was going to be a new 'Abbey' |
01:46 - 01:48 | There have been delays, sir. |
01:48 - 01:52 | Rubbish. Where's Rye House gone? |
01:53 - 01:54 | Even Stoke is finished. |
01:56 - 01:57 | How can we go on with three leagues? |
01:57 - 02:00 | We told the TV company... |
02:00 - 02:03 | ...we said we had more tracks. |
02:04 - 02:08 | God damn guest riders... |
02:08 - 02:13 | ...riders having three different teams. |
02:14 - 02:16 | We used to be the second most popular sport in the country. |
02:17 - 02:21 | Now, they're all going to Poland and Sweden... |
02:27 - 02:29 | ... and we're still paying their air fares. |
02:30 - 02:34 | We can barely charge a tenner admission. |
02:34 - 02:36 | It's a joke. |
02:41 - 02:42 | If any of you... |
02:43 - 02:47 | ...suggest one big league again... |
02:48 - 02:53 | you can all drop into the Development Leagues |
02:54 - 02:56 | See how you like running second halves |
02:56 - 02:59 | with no TV money. |
03:00 - 03:02 | And we're shutting the Rugby office. |
03:04 - 03:07 | Forget it, Denise. It wasn't worth the aggro. |
03:14 - 03:16 | The points limit has got to come down again. |
03:19 - 03:23 | One rider per team over 6.00. |
03:25 - 03:26 | National League kids at reserve again. |
03:31 - 03:33 | Six teams per league. |
03:40 - 03:46 | There'll have to be some drastic changes. |
03:46 - 03:49 | We've got to give it another go. |
03:53 - 03:56 | We'll try green helmet colours. |
