Tweet from BSPA...... UPDATE | To clarify we remain hopeful and optimistic of a successful conclusion to see @OfficialCovBees on track next season. Friday is key.

Horton has not taken up the lease according to the coventry telegraph outlook looks bleak now

Fantastic news for speedway fans everywhere and particularly them old Aces fans.

And the other 0.1% want allotments.

Blowing through the curtains in your room

Horton and Sandhu? Horton and Sandhu?

There is no easy solution that's why it has dragged on for several years ,a site was muted not far from Brandon but that application was turned down by Rugby BC. With all the in fighting between the stox and Speedway now it's a divided cause as well . The only solution would be for Sandhu and Horton to make up and be all kissy Kissy and Rugby BC to grow a pair and sort out a compromise deal at Brandon or find an alternative plot of land for Brandon Estates to develop leaving Brandon alone altogether. If their is a political will to do this is the question ,more money in houses and council tax income I suppose.

Starry ,The crowds would not be viable at Leicester though would they? I would imagine at very best 50% down on current levels which are hardly great. Our only chance of Speedway this year is to remain at Brandon ,there will never be a new stadium as many have already stated. Up the bees.

MP for Rugby Mark Pawsey also said in the Speedway Star a couple of weeks ago that his preferred option would be a scheme similar to Swindons where part of the site would be developed and room left for the Speedway. It all looks very bleak at the moment pleased that Leicester and Belle Vue look like running . I suppose all we can do is wait for the outcome of the meeting with Messrs Horton and Stokes next week. Fingers crossed for a positive update then.

Extreme minority sport in the U.K.? Are you having a laugh ,10 teams in the EIHL and 10 in the second tier . Sheffield v Nottingham Boxing Day sell out crowd of over 9000 Reverse fixture sell out crowd of over 7000. Play off weekends at Nottingham sell out every year . It maybe minority but it's popular.

Friday December 23, 2016 THE promotion and management of Coventry Speedway would like to wish all of our supporters a Happy Christmas and a peaceful New Year. We understand the concerns over a lack of official club updates over recent weeks regarding future plans - the position is a complex one which involves continual intensive negotiations; however, we remain committed that the club will be on-track in the 2017 season. Our best wishes for the festive season, and as soon as there is genuine news to report we will do so. Mick Horton Neil Watson Co-Promoters, Coventry Speedway

Great news for Leicester, happy days for the Lions fans.

Agree on the last point,One thing is for sure if you were in the trenches with this lot you wouldn't know which way to point your rifle.

Is it bloody hell? Might as well watch the cockleshell heroes instead then !

Never for Bomber his are definitely titanium.

Yes, latest news is the Slovenian GP result

I think we need nick knowles and his merry men down there .

Patrick H Is at Somerset

No never I won't accept that

Hortons statement has disappeared from the website in the spirit of perestroika perhaps comrades.

Yes big thanks to Mr Stokes ,now he knows what dolly partons bra goes through keeping those two enormous t&@s in control.

FFS great news totally shocked in a good way.

How sad and Sandhu still holds the Bees with great affection according to Horton . They must both be on 2facebook.
