4 of us were coming up in a car but the rainfall radar has swung this in favour of the stream which is a shame. Been very dry since the initial staging dates 18/19th April.☹️

There were about 3 or passes that's it. The track was not good. Racing was much more processional than normal. The blue grove was definitely there, it was single file into the bends. You could see from stands on the back straight and by the last 2 heats it was there on the first bend.

I have posted about Killeen in another post. He's not a shadow of the rider he was last year. The RS system is not working out for some of the lads and Luke is one of them. It must be effecting his confidence because his scores in the championship are suffering as well. Boughen and Joe Thompson are in the same boat. Take Hagon as an example Leicester took him out of the firing line and he's now slowly getting his conference back. If he were still at Leicester struggling to score would that be the case? Yes the RS system has had its successes. Tom Brennan, Dan Thompson and Anders Rowe. All three climbed out of the RS birth and got into the main body of the team. Flint has been a RS since 2021 and has not yet managed to progress into the main body. The same with Edwards and Jenkins, but these three boys have a lot more experience than young Killeen, Boughen. I think its just too much of a jump for some of the younger boys.

I know you didn't say a return was imminent and I didn't say you did, all I said was that I was getting the impression, with some of the language being used, that it almost seemed a return was imminent and that maybe you knew something we didn't. I agree with everything you say about the campaign and the point that they are at and the effort that has gone in. I've never seen @R87 post anything positive about Speedway and while I don't share his view about it never happening I also can't get too excited until I can see moves are being made to acquire the stadium. Maybe I'm suffering from a bit of Brannan fatigue... I go to the Speedway and you're on the pa introducing the teams, you're then back on the pa with your NBNF highlights podcast, I come home and switch BSN on and you're commentating on that, I go to listen to my Speedway podcasts and you're on them all at one time or another, I watch the GP and I can hear you introducing the riders, I come on here and you're posting, I switch the radio on and your yelling "Pets in a Pickle" in my ear during the ad breaks!!! It seems like you're almost omnipresent in my life 😉😂 I'm joking of course but you do have a wide reach within our sport, so every time I hear the positivity I keep asking myself how can the stadium be purchased, especially while "land banking" is continued to be allowed in this country. Anyway keep up the good work for all you do within Speedway and who knows maybe a return of the Bradford/Coventry league and cup matches of the past. 🙏🤞
