  1. Past hour
  2. Surely, anyone willing to run a speedway venue is not going to be so thin-skinned or woke as to be deterred by comments which are mainly observational, questioning, or humorous?
  3. Your right the start line tarts ruin it for me,same riders everytime they come to tapes time it was stopped
  4. Lets wait and see when the kerb is put in at least they have the space to play with from what pics I've seen !
  5. Today
  6. Got to feel ( a little bit 😜) for any Poole fans who were planning a mini tour to Edinburgh/ Workington in mid summer, with this new fixture many fans do not know if they can make plans to follow their team oop north
  7. Well, when??!! πŸ€·β€β™€οΈ Promoters wonder why shortage of away fans at tracks πŸ‘€ There is no reason why they couldnt have decided when the BF was going to be before Championship fixtures came out especially if they are going to steal one of their race nights. It doesnt affect the Prem calendar. They definitely need to do an online course on how to be organised.
  8. Slightly worried about mayfield now. Talking about better promotion & how the sport suites TikTok & that’s the way to draw a new audience then get Foz in to present. He sounded old hat when he did it before.
  9. Why have it when teams are on a mini northern tour. So rude! πŸ™ˆπŸ˜‰ Wonder how many riders will pull out of the meeting now there is no wild card on offer?
  10. Chances are those championship teams will have riders in the British final. I’d imagine they’d be rearranged, which begs the question why release them in the first place
  11. Date announced for British final, good news it's on a Saturday night. Bad news 6 championship teams are riding the same night so either fans won't be able to go, or a mid summer fixture will have to be rearranged πŸ€” . More bad news probably polish meetings so maybe unavailability of several riders πŸ€”.
  12. It is no longer an abattoir. It is a meat and fish wholesale supplier.
  13. The site I was referring to is close to cradley heath but houses are literally 100yards from edge of land, the rocky lane site is perfect in every aspect but the council for whatever reason don’t seem keen to have it there, 3 other sites have potential but are 5 miles from cradley but one especially has a very major plus going for it but dealing with councils is a drag, it can be weeks/months be for you get a reply, we contacted entain about a track share to run wolves on a Monday and cradley on a Wednesday but they said not at this time(whatever that means) ?
  14. www.livespeedway.se will be a platform whee you can watch Allsvenskan, SM-qualifications, JSM, RM and USM. It will be subscription based. https://www.facebook.com/share/1LCUh2Wn5G/
  15. Deanno, what do we consider to be to close to houses ? surely BV is close to houses but it is something the council wanted so it was allowed, surely if something improves the area as a whole then it can be put forward for outline planning permission ?, discounting farmers fields i am aware of pretty much 99.9% of sites around Cradley Heath obviously their is no ideal site otherwise it would have been found by now, ideally a track share with Wolves would be ideal and if a site was big enough a track within a track could be the way to track share (the inside track for Wolves), The Lion Farm site just off Junction 2 of the M5 would have been ideal for a project such as that, but again the local council prefer to let the site become more and more run down before it eventually becomes uneconomic to repair and will be sold off to developers, in the meantime they refuse to lease the site and receive an annual rental income which could have been be reinvested.
  16. Not sure the size of track makes for good racing,, it's the room on entry and exits of the corners that make for good or bad racing.

  18. Maybe they could get Foz on the nitro and Helium,, would make it a bit more interesting
  19. I'm impressed with what I have seen so far 400 mtr track should produce some good racing ,as has been said it will have to comply to get a license . Most of the work seems fairy straight forward they have the infra instructor it is more adaption to co-exist with the stoxs that needs to be done ,there will be a cost but assume that has been factored into the project .
  20. This has been done previously at Belle Vue, Leicester & Workington. Good to see other clubs come along and carry the burden - well done. Maybe you’ll discover another Bailey, Bickley, Bewley, Flint, Hodder, Howarth, Pearson, Smith or Worrall to use in your team to help you show the way.
  21. Yesterday
  22. Vintage races are Jade Mudgway & Theo Pijper for Redcar vs Stuart Swales and Stuart Robson for Newcastle
  23. i for one am looking forward to it coming off. Haven't been to a meeting since the demise of Elfield Park @ MK however, having watch some on Sky & youtube. All the messing around at the start is off putting. My one concern is, 6 teams in the league!!! Really should look back to 64/65. Think there should be an amalgamation. link for Defunct tracks. http://www.defunctspeedway.co.uk/Brafield.htm
  24. Glad you mentioned cobblers that reminds me to get my shoes fixed
