I very much doubt it. Sandhu and Heaver have had plenty of chances to meet fans at Save Cov Speedway meetings but always declined an invite.

The NSSC meeting on Thursday will clarify what the plan is hopefully.

Also a big screen at tracks could potentially gain and few more sponsors and of course double up as a scoreboard.

I've said this before that a big screen would be ideal at meetings. I know there is a cost including maintenance and operational but I'm sure fans wouldn't mind watching a replay of the previous heat or even heats from years ago during breaks.

To be honest we will have speedway and Stox fans plus local residents involved too. It is hoped that around April time we will do something similar but this time in the City Centre.

Nope still Friday. The say that they can't do it at the weekend for whatever reason.

It's this Friday coming Steve.

I'm planning on attending just need to sort a lift back!

Team GB have been doing a fitness regime over the winter. Seems to me just because it's not how Tai wanted it done he's threw a hissy fit. Tai asked GB to have a fitness regime (got it) squad get togethers (got it) and a training school for youngsters (got it). The powers above have many faults but they've put in place things that make them look more professional.

It's for young British riders.

Its the Polish clubs that want it.

Yes at least a link. The person listed as having significant control of Investin brandon is a John Downer who is also CEO of Investin PLC based at the exact same address as Brandon Estates (jersey). Of course Brandon Estates (jersey) used to be called Investin Brandon (jersey). Investin PLC actually have developments in Coventry and Rugby. You have to ask why he wouldn't budge on the size of it. A metre difference would have got permission.

I would suggest that what happened in 2010-2011 has nothing to with the situation we are in now. The bank sold Brandon not Sandhu to pay off loan debts.

Challenge meetings are done quite often where the hosting team pays both sets of riders. Add to that individual events where the hosting club will pay for all riders competing.

Think it would need Hortons permission to be called Coventry Bees in these meetings but don't see why not.

Keeping the name going I suppose. Could be quite important if Brandon Estates put in a planning application.

Apparently it was just about the Peterborough fixture. It seems we may do some challenge matches during the season.

Well that's me convinced we will be back..

Yep it could be a number of things. I didn't listen but it seems it wasn't even mentioned.

Coventry Observer are a free weekly newspaper. Think it comes out every midweek Touch FM have an update on the Bees at 8am.

There are confidentiality agreements at this moment. At this moment I'd take a track in a field

This came from Jeremy Heaver and you believe it? Tell me then if Sandhu was allowed to run stox why didn't he just extend the lease instead of getting Horton to do it? Why get someone else to do it but still pay for everything? Why was Sandhu adamant that 2016 would be the last? All parties have pretty much said there is an issue between Sandhu and Brandon Estates yet some still seem to dismiss it. If there was no issue then stadium would be all ready to race wouldn't it? Sandhu wouldve negotiated his own lease with them and he wouldn't need to cancel 2 stox fixtures. Maybe one day Sandhu and Brandon Estates can turn things around and sort it but it's highly unlikely.

Of course he does but he's not allowed to say! Same as Cllr Stokes who said it will come out eventually.

No I don't have trust in Horton either but I was talking about the stadium issue. It's quite common knowledge that Brandon Estates don't want Sandhu operating at Brandon. I have no issue with Sandhu taking his stuff I'd have done the same in his situation with what I hear now. The problem is Horton had to get the lease as Brandon Estates wouldn't let Sandhu extending his, Sandhu extending would've made more sense don't you think? Horton needed Sandhu (money and equipment) which Sandhu was prepared to do but Brandon Estates continually blocked it. It was virtually game over once Brandon Estates got the police involved. I don't think the situation would be any different if the stadium was fit and ready to go. Cllr Stokes statement is probably the only one any of us can really trust

Brandon Estates didn't want Sandhu to operate at Brandon not Horton. Horton wasn't prepared to sign the lease until Sandhu was allowed to run his stox as he needed his money. Even if Horton did sign the lease Sandhu would've took his stuff anyway because he wasn't allowed to operate at Brandon Stadium. Why do you think Horton had to get a new lease instead of Sandhu extending his?
