THE DEAN MACHINE

The site I was referring to is close to cradley heath but houses are literally 100yards from edge of land, the rocky lane site is perfect in every aspect but the council for whatever reason don’t seem keen to have it there, 3 other sites have potential but are 5 miles from cradley but one especially has a very major plus going for it but dealing with councils is a drag, it can be weeks/months be for you get a reply, we contacted entain about a track share to run wolves on a Monday and cradley on a Wednesday but they said not at this time(whatever that means) ?

I loved it, rode there many times, always well prepared

It’s now an abattoir

HNG have many locations on the go at the moment not just rocky lane, I’ve been with them to view 4 over the last few weeks, the effort alone deserves success at at already one of them and if it doesn’t get success at any then the councils are 100% to blame, imo 3 of the 5 are ideal locations and seem to tick the right boxes,one was ideal but not big enough and the other was too close to houses

£25, just a stroke of good luck that nobody who follows speedway or would potentially follow speedway is in any way feeling a pinch on their finances and are having to tighten their belts

There is a polish website called speedway news pl which has covered both Buxton and Northampton on their pages,maybe we should ask them to run British speedways media

I saw him on Sunday, he was the last person I would of thought

Must be really bad the vandals brought some snow with them to sprinkle round the pits

I just hope it works because failure of Northampton while the premier league is decimated by numbers will be catastrophic for speedway as a whole, I will go as a new track as I think many will but when the novelty fan wears off they need a fan base

Well it’s less than a years polish contract so possibly and does have backing of company’s like Betard

Woffinden?

Yes they do, I’m not saying I like it but you have to cater for want the public want and things like Bracknell like him or hate him get views and generate interest

I agree but I know some don’t

Well it was a bit of sarcasm which clearly went over your head but hey ho

Good job that advertising has gone out all over Northampton telling the good folk of Northampton that a new speedway team is happening in their area 🙄

Well let’s face face it they only got 11 days till start of season so hopefully is the wrong word, it’s has to be

Why not it’s already sport land and looking on google it’s in middle of industrial land

Can’t Swindon do something on the oasis leisure center ? It’s been unused for a few years and looking on google earth already has a cycle speedway track on the grounds

That doesn’t even make sense, no work at the stadium will even start till a deal has been done to run speedway otherwise you’re paying for work for someone else, any work done at the stadium has been for the stox

But that’s the point,,the general public react to sound bites, you have proved the point, you’ve watched Bracknell,I’ve watched it and can’t stand football but I watch it because he is a parady and sometimes funny ,nobody outside the sport would give Richie Hawkins a view because he is dull, he may be a great team manger or whatever and he deserves a place in the sport but he is dull in interviews, that interview I watched this morning he may aswel of been explaining algebra

After sitting through that Richie Hawkins interview on YouTube and just about managing to stay awake it occurred to me to me that what speedway needs is a Steve Bracknell type character,I know he is a parody but you have to make people want to watch content

There isn’t one but some parents and their siblings seem to feel they are being put out of a team spot because of a foreign rider

Or running off into the sunset after realising you can’t change the status quo as many an out the box thinking people have done in the past

Unless they have changed the rules a current or previous promoter has to shadow the new promotion for a season, maybe Louis is doing it ? Anyway crack out the fixtures now and plod on with the season

As I said it’s don’t have a problem with him riding, I was just asking what fans thought
