The White Knight

NAH!! :o :nono:

At the moment, sadly, they seem happy to just sit on it and allow the value of the Site to increase. Really, it is a shame that pressure cannot be brought on the current Owners to make up their minds quickly.

It would be good if we could all put our differences to one side and just be eternally grateful that the most famous Club in Speedway, Belle Vue, will be competing, as usual, in League and Cup Competition this year. The War couldn't stop then - let's just be thrilled that Financial problems haven't stopped them either.

More affirmation from the SpeedwayGB Website: http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.31833

.................. and Ted Ede on occasions.

As have Belle Vue. :party: :party:

You have me puzzled here. My memory isn't so good (honestly) so what am I missing?

I've just spotted this on the British SpeedwayGB Website: http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.31832

I am sure there aren't. If they do - then they can hardly call themselves Speedway Supporters. Thank you very much indeed Phil for keeping us all up to date with the proceedings at the Meeting. I would like to wish all at Belle Vue, my very best wishes for the coming Seasons, and hope that over the years Speedway will prosper in the wonderful new Stadium.. Regardless of the 'rights and wrongs' of what has gone on over the last couple of years - I think we should all move forward and support those who are rescuing this great Club, the Riders, the Staff and all involved in Belle Vue Stadium. Importantly - it should never be forgotten that only because of Mr. Gordon and Mr. Morton Belle Vue have the possibility of a great future in a great Stadium.

Thank you very much indeed Phil. You are a true Gentleman. :approve: That's my problem HT. I live in the 20th Century. Not the 21st. :nono: "The Past is a foreign Country - they do things differently there" - L.P. Hartley Yes - the 19th would do me. Red Coats and Pith Helmets.

That is all far too technical for me. I wouldn't know where to start with periscoping (Submarine ) and Twitter (Birds ) and I'm not on Facebook either. There must be more Belle Vue Supporters like me. Would it be possible to put a Report of the main points on here please Phil.

Mine arrived today too gustix - I noticed the Wimbledon bit. I haven't read it yet though.

Damn - you beat me to it. The late Gordon Guasco.

That is NOT a question berniev123 - it is a statement. :nono:

I cannot attend. Believe me - I would if I could. I only hope that there will be some Report on here, or on the Belle Vue Website to explain to us what is to happen with the Belle Vue Team. Who do YOU support? Apparently this could have been sorted out ages ago were it not for the BSPA, SCB etc.. according to folk on here. If that is true then the delay cannot be laid at Belle Vue's door. If that is right it would also be very, very wrong to penalise Belle Vue Speedway for the possible dilatory behaviour of others.

A very good question that. I had to laugh at the IOU crack. :rofl: Very good wtg28.

CONGRATULATIONS!!!! George. :party:

Shame that compost. :rofl: I did try.

I totally agree with that. I used to enjoy the Second Halves - watching the youngsters progress from wobblers to getting in to the Team. I miss the Scurry too - the Second Halvers battling for a Reserve place in the Team - all good stuff. A sad loss in my opinion.

Very impressive Interview. Kevin came over really well.

I can well believe that.

It's got nothing to do with youngsters - but just might improve Speedway for the Spectator.. You know - to try and drag the Sport out of the Doldrums. Then again - I'm probably wasting my time - there are some who seem happy for Speedway to remain there. I only brought it up because Doubling Up, Doubling Down and Double Points are at least partly responsible for Speedway's decline.

I might even come along and have a go.......... :shock:

There was indeed - that was pulled down years ago when they enlarged the Dog Track. The Main Stand is nowadays very plush - not like it was when you and I went. The seating upstairs was OK but you could never call it plush. For your interest: http://www.sunderlandspeedway.co.uk/ and http://www.defunctspeedway.co.uk/Sunderland.htm I hope this brings back some happy memories for you.

You are a top man Sir. :approve: I well remember Ross Gilbertson at Sunderland with the 'Bombers'.
