Luckily it wouldn't cost much anyway, Horton knows that.

IF there was a need to change the name it would have to be something that the wider community can get behind. Warwickshire Bees? Coventry Jaguars? Personally think it would be a mistake to change the name unless there was no other choice.

Brandon Estates not wanting Sandhu operating at Brandon came before that. Why do you think Sandhu didn't get an extension on the lease he had? I always found that strange and even more so when it was announced he was willing to still pay all the bills. Bees cannot run at the stadium without Stox too. Unless of course there is someone with tonnes of cash.

Cheers. Looking at the place it wouldn't take long to get it fit for racing.

What was said about Brandon? Must've missed that chat.

I dont know but i guess there could be confidentiality agreements in place which is why we've heard nothing off any of them apart from Hortons statement regarding Bees being pulled out.

I got into the stadium just after 11 and there was one window open with 2 ladies working, there was also another window with someone inside but wasn't open. Also there were selling programmes at the turnstile, I think it would help if there was a seperate place to purchase programmes. Still I don't want to knock it too much as I had an excellent day.

I bet Garrity would've if it wasn't for that blown engine! I think the campaign wanted their own race jackets for these challenge meetings so it didn't really matter what Kevlars the riders chose to wear.

There was never going to be a deal with Stox that Sandhu runs. For whatever reason Brandon Estates won't let Sandhu near the place, probably the reason he didn't extend the lease he had. Still wondering where that 10 year lease went. Let's hope Brandon Estates either sell or are willing to talk with different parties for 2018.

It's Brandon Estates that need to answer that question. Why won't they let Sandhu operate at Brandon? Stox not running either remember.

If you stood on the back straight you may understand where the shale went.

Agree. If they give Aussie riders an higher assessed average clubs will think twice about taking a risk on them and instead take a risk on a young Brit.

Havvy has that job tomorrow. I'm disappointed I missed out!

Carl Johnson Peterborough team manager says they have a surprise for us Bees fans tomorrow. Wonder what it could be?

And I believe Peterborough even rode a fixture in the time we also borrowed it so your version of events seem correct to me.

If Poland want to ride Tuesdays then the riders will ride in Poland if Swedish clubs have signed the documents. I can see Polish clubs pulling riders out for a fake practice session when a big meeting is coming up just to be sure riders will be fit.

When did the BSPA insist on foreign riders having the UK as top priority? Don't remember that? Anyway this is worse as it includes practice sessions. I can see Polish clubs pulling out riders for 'practice' when an important match is coming up.

Peterboroughs air fence was yellow and black last season too.

Poland are insisting that the riders riding in the top division has Poland as number 1 priority for every day of the week.

I'm with Matt Ford on this, fair play to him.

East Midlands bowl, Leicester v Coventry 13th May. Harris and Kyle Howarth ride instead of Bjerre (now at BV) and Garrity who is riding for Redcar

Pretty much every sport where I live it's either free or possibly a quid for u10s. Granted some are if the child is paid into a membership scheme but then receive free tickets.

It's something I always wanted Coventry to do. Coventry has two big universities with 55,000 students between them (and expanding). They did a student offer for £5 but not sure it was promoted, a huge market there!
