    Anyone read the Clarke Osborne article in todays Speedway Star?

    As ever an interesting read. Thank You. As a postscript the much truncated stadium at Crayford closed it's doors for the final time last month. Gone to the dogs: Crayford closure a stark reminder of the downfall of a sport that could once attract royalty | Racing Post

    Odd Fossengen and Edgar Stangeland spring to mind. Odd rode from 1968 -1974 at Poole whilst Ed rode for a number of clubs throughout the 70's.

    Hadn't seen that news. Probably makes it less likely that Entain would be prepared to lose Monmore as well.

    I suppose it boils down to whether Entain can continue to provide enough dog racing to fulfil the needs of their customers. As far as I know they also run Crayford, Romford and Hove. Having worked for Ladbrokes many years ago my understanding was that they kept the tracks in their ownership (in those days just Crayford and Monmore - Romford and Hove were Coral) to give them more control over the dog racing product in the betting shops.

    Finally got round to watching this. Fascinating. Thanks for posting.

    Haven't seen this news anywhere else on here so thought I'd post this link. Simon suffered a "serious stroke" last week and is currently starting the recovery process. The facebook page has been set up by his family to keep everyone aware of his progress. (13) Facebook

    A life well lived who gave an awful lot to Speedway over the (many) years. RIP.

    Of Cradley's 1972 team - 4 still with us, Bob Andrews, Roy Trigg, John Hart and Mick Handley. Three sadly not, Bernie, Pete Jarman and Jimmy Squibb.

    Whilst Rune was indeed riding under a Polish licence and rode for them in the WTC, he was also conscious that he would have been unlikely to be nominated for a Wild Card as a Pole and was aware that he needed to be a top 8 rider to qualify for the next year's series. Can recall him saying that on one or more occasions in interviews.

    A good read as always. Particularly enjoyed reading about the Tigers move to Hampden and how close they were to moving to Cathkin Park.
