Day joins the new club having been involved with British speedway for the last 10 years with the Mildenhall Fen Tigers and Peterborough Panthers, as well as running his own speedway management service for young British riders. Day moved to the Kent area two years ago and brings a wealth of experience of gaining sponsors and working with local companies and media to promote speedway. The Kent promotion have already set out their commercial requirements and Day will be spending the early part of 2013 meeting with perspective sponsors and local media to promote the new venture. read more >>> www.kentspeedway.madwebdesign.co.uk

What I'm getting at Bryn is the SCB rule that has affected updates for those supporters who can't attend every week, not whether the person who did a really good job for quite some time was there or not as he hasn't been able to do updates since the start of the season unfortunately. I thought the sport needed to attract supporters not clam up and keep events secret, but there again maybe speedway does not need to attract new supporters or keep regulars happy who may be unable to attend due to shift work or health problems. Anyway I will leave you with those thoughts . . . . .

Can't find any, bit of a sad state when a texter can't be found. Thanks to that no phones or Internet rule from the SCB it means that Russ who was Mr Reliable can no longer keep us all informed, real shame.

There is no problem putting a track in thankfully. Planning would be submitted next year if the landowners go ahead.

It's their land after all to do with as they see fit, but onwards and upwards, the Wildcats WILL have a new home by 2013 if everything fits into place. There will be no news until next summer on the exact location due to the landowners who have only watched one live speedway meeting wanting to sample more live meetings before committing their land for our cause. Things from this perspective are very positive for a return to racing, we can only now sit and wait for their decision unless of course another landowner makes a good offer in the meantime.

Good luck Karl with your future.

Yes, I invited a landowner that I know to the recent Exeter v Wildcats fixture at Somerset. He had never seem 'live' speedway, just the Sky broadcasts. He was really impressed and before he makes a decision he wants to see a few more fixtures at different tracks. As for the old track and landlords I think we all know their views regarding speedway unfortunately, but you never know. When there is something concrete regarding a future track or a return to the old track you will be made aware but until then we will take as many challenge fixtures for the nomadic Wildcats next season as possible to help keep awareness in the media alive.

Please sign our online petition to help save the Wildcats The petition link can be found on the Wildcats website homepage Your support is much appreciated, the more signatures we can get the better chance that the National league could have an additional club if not in 2012 then in 2013. Thanks everyone

ISLANDERS CANCELLED TONIGHT By Isle of Wight Speedway ~ Tuesday 6th September 2011 Wightlink Islanders speedway meeting tonight against the Sheffield/Scunthorpe combined in what was to be the final home National league meeting at Smallbrook this year has been cancelled due to the adverse weather conditions. With the cut off date this weekend for National league fixtures the Islanders are unable to re-schedule this week due to the Isle of Wight Festival taking place. Further news on a rescheduled fixture will be issued in due course.

I have just spoken with the promotion who have said a decision will be made by lunchtime, I will post news on here once I'm advised.

Good to see you on the Island last night, I thought the youngsters did really well putting on a good show. Some great lads coming through the system, good to see

Buxton v IoW on Sunday 7th August Has been cancelled by Buxton, no new date agreed as yet.

MODS any chance of a redirect from the National League section for this if it really has to be in this section? Most people won't know there is an individual meeting on at the Island and could presume that there is no meeting if they can't find anything in the National league section just like the Dudley Hammer individual meeting.
