I not sure if he is or isn't I've had several different stories I don't know what to believe. I do think that Sandhu is likely to make money from houses at Brandon though. Something is certainly going on in the background.

😂. Talking about Wasps though if we do move to Leicester then Horton and Neil Watson should ask Wasps how they helped their fans from the south make the trip to Coventry. 2 years later many are still attending games regularly.

After the Wasps game that was, I couldn't make the gig!

Erm not sure that's quite right about music gigs. I've seen gigs at Ricoh Arena bowl, Ericsson exhibition hall, The Empire and at Warwick Arts Centre in the last 2 years. Also Wasps haven't been based in London for years. Edited to add Godiva Festival too.

It wouldn't have made a blind bit of difference if Horton agreed with Sandhu or not. Brandon Estates quite obviously don't want Sandhu operating at Brandon.

It's either because he's since changed from Coventry to Leicester or we've changed our race night I guess.

I guess that ours and Leicesters home fixtures are TBC is because it's not decided which race night the clubs will ride? It has Cov Friday and Leicester Saturdays, could it be that they just switch if they have opposite race nights? The away fixtures don't say TBC so thats got to be a positive?

9am.

Yep I can't see Rugby Council allowing this. The entrance will be used constantly 24/7 with huge vehicles going in and out.

I've seen a few post from some and they certainly are not happy.

Don't see what Horton can do in this situation can you? I find it truly baffling that people are blaming Horton for this, this is what happens when a site gets sold to a faceless Jersey based company. What was Horton meant to do? The stadium isn't fit for purpose.

The problem we've had is people believing Sandhu would build a new one. I'm all up for a fund so we can raise money to build a track, we have the stox fan base to which could help. Problem is we need land.

What you don't understand is it won't be easy to find land suitable. Plus we have to get over the hurdle of getting permission for a stadium while one is still standing. I think our best hope ( if Brandon is gone for good) is that if they do get planning permission on housing it stipulates that they must provide funds for a new stadium nearby. There are previous cases of this.

Rugby Council are already trying to find us some suitable land. Coventry Council have said there is none suitable.

I don't think we will see speedway at Brandon ever but while it's standing we still have to try and save it. We have to do what we can and if we don't run less people will be interested in doing anything about it.

If we bought the club how would it be any different? The club don't own the stadium and haven't done for a long time.

Yep thats what I mean. If we are not on it that's final.

I think the quickest way to extinction would be not to run at all. It does say full list on the speedway gb twitter feed.

If you're on about owners touting Brandon as a car storage facility then I'm afraid it's correct.

The problem is we have no guarantee that Brandon will ever be ready. It can be dangerous having to catch up on fixtures especially with our weather! That was last week. Buster might not be the owner quite soon. He said himself he was looking to move the club to someone else.

I don't think anyone thought it was completely off the table especially with certain rumours around, just that it would wouldn't work. It might actually work short term though. You might find Leicester have a new promoter/owner soon.

Ah ok. Cheers for that.

I've been told Horton was on CWR around 1pm and said Coventry Bees will start the season at Leicester but will go to Brandon if/When situation is resolved. Any one else hear it?

Wouldn't surprise me, I don't think all the Bees 1-7 are keen on a switch to Leicester. I wonder if Leicester will ride Friday nights?

Buster might have sold it by then, he did say he was looking for someone to take it on.
