Midland Red

Great photos, as usual, but…. As usual, no caption, no identities provided. Not everyone knows who’s in your photos!

I don’t think the CO was more than a director of MSS at the time that Blackbird Road was sold, ie he didn’t own MSS, that was the Sandersons.

…and the answer is… ???

No!

I remember attending Brandon every Saturday night (stock cars excepted), to see the speedway racing I’d go most Tuesdays to Blackbird Road, to see the speedway I enjoyed Bees winning, I enjoyed visiting teams winning at Leicester, but really it didn’t matter, as I’d enjoy the action from the 13 heat match and the second half, which I always stayed for League, challenge, Midland Cup matches, plus World and Midland Championship qualifiers, Tests and other individual meetings This attitude doesn’t seem to prevail any longer, judging by the comments on BSF - all this b0llocks about play-offs, rider changes, with journeymen “team members” - fans identified with “their riders” season after season, now it’s hardly match after match Can’t remember many changes for the better since “the good old days”

Also, why go when it’s televised or streamed?
