Yep, Ray and Starman are right, Matt Richie plays for Newcastle. He did play for Bournemouth for a good few seasons though. Surprised when they sold him tbh.
Just google it!
We rode on Thursday v's RH last season so can't see it being a problem especially if it's down as the off race night! Think someone telling you porkies!!
Disappear anyway if people stop going Skidder! Still some loan fees coming in, can he not invest something into the track.
If the customer is always right, then track needs sorting!!
It seems like the track guy shouldn't be made a scapegoat though. He does at least two other tracks which don't seem to have dodgy call offs, seems like the track needs completely re doing and better equipment. Hopefully he'll invest into the track a bit more now.
Prob wasn't as serious as before but there was definitely petitions at the turnstile and passed through the stands. The council wasn't massively keen on speedway like it is now.
The club nearly closed in mid 90's too, about 95ish time. I remember signing the petition to try and keep it open. It was not long after Long Eaton closed down I think.
