The White Knight replied to brewer's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Planned - or - Fixed. This arrangement could cost some Team the League Championship. :sad: .................................... OH!!! That's OK then - a bit like the 'Play Offs'. :mad: -

The White Knight replied to NeilWatson's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Yes - I have noticed that. As a Sunderland Speedway Supporter who has no Team to Support in my local City (and have not had for FORTY years) - I find it sad that a few folk are moaning about having their Speedway albeit at a different level. :sad: I would settle for National League Speedway in my City as long as we had Speedway. SOME FOLK DON'T KNOW WHEN THEY ARE WELL OFF!! :sad: -

Was Penhall,s Retirement The Start Of The Decline In Speedway.?
The White Knight replied to stratton's topic in Years Gone By
The Grand Prix Series did NOTHING at all to help British Speedway. The 'one off' World Final (at Wembley) did at least put some money in to Speedway's coffers. I do believe though that Speedway's decline had started long before the Grand Prix Series. The Grand Prix Series has, to my mind, hastened that decline. :sad: -

If it comes to a choice between Football and Speedway there is only one winner for me - Speedway. What's the point of watching England - you are only going to get upset when we lose - which at some stage we surely will. Support the 'Panthers' - that's far more important than Football. :rolleyes: -
Was Penhall,s Retirement The Start Of The Decline In Speedway.?
The White Knight replied to stratton's topic in Years Gone By
No I don't believe so sidney. From a peak in the Seventies the Sport entered a slow but sure decline. There were of course times when Seasons bucked the trend but by and large the decline in Speedway began in the Seventies. Prior to the Seventies too there had been hard times, especially when compared to the Crowds shortly after the War - I believe the formation of the Provincial League breathed new life in to an ailing Sport. Crowds increased to, as I say, a peak in the Seventies - there has been a slow and gradual decline in Speedway's fortunes ever since. It's all very sad really. -
No - the Engines can't be changed - or perhaps, eventually - they will have to be. Funny to think that once upon a time our Sport used to be called 'Dirt Track Racing' - you certainly can't call it that these days - there isn't any - DIRT!!!

Thank you Ray. I don't know - why don't folk just listen to me. -
Belle Vues National Speedway Stadium
The White Knight replied to Phil The Ace's topic in Speedway News and Discussions
I do wish folk wouldn't be so negative. I have dealt with Councils myself. They will only move when THEY want to. No amount of cajoling does any good. To be fair to them, they have to ensure that everything is in place before passing anything and it all takes TIME. The Stadium WILL come in to being - I am CERTAIN of it. Patience!!! -
