The White Knight

IF it is true what you stated above (your second sentence) - then you have answered your own question. If it can't be pulled down until a new Stadium is in place, even if the new Stadium doesn't happen, at least you still have the old one.

Or - if you would like a follow up to the above superb Site run by John Skinner you could get additional information here: http://www.sunderlandspeedway.co.uk/ I have no idea who has put this Site back on line as we closed it down - but - it mysteriously re-appeared. The original builder of the Site was Madweb Design's Tim Allan.

Sadly norbold - you are probably right. That's the point with Sunderland and Speedway Promoters

Let's hope so wtg28. There are grounds for optimism with Neil Vatcher's youngsters in Training. I really hope that one or two of those can come through. We need more than that though to get rid of the dreadful 'hat trick': Double Up, Double Down and Double Points.

SUNDERLAND. SUNDERLAND. SUNDERLAND. SUNDERLAND. SUNDERLAND. That's my top five anyway. I reckon that makes my thoughts on this Thread fairly clear.

The squabblers are winning at the moment. :sad: Sorry to be so flippant but the carry on here is ridiculous. Every time I get a Reply Notification e-mail for this Thread I look straight away for, hopefully, good news about the 'Aces'. What do I get? People acting like bloody kids. I wish they would p*ss off and start a Thread for Squabblers only.

That was a bit naughty norbold. :nono: You should have chucked them down your famous hole.

A shame that this Thread seems to have sunk in to petty squabbling. Personally - I am keeping my fingers crossed for Belle Vue.

I believe 'Dingle' Brown was one of those involved gustix. Hope this helps.

Doesn't look like it OFF - does it? Worrying times.

No surprise there CHR.

I hope it is still working OK. What sort of lowlife steals a life saving piece of equipment like that? I despair sometimes.

My Wembley visits were really good - but - I was far more impressed with the Racing at the old Hyde Road Track. The Racing I saw there was just awsome.

What a line up the British Final was in those days full stop. Not like nowadays sadly.

Wrong I'm afraid. See Aces51 Post above.

At this present time the BSPA Management Committee have responsibility for Belle Vue - that's why.

Very true Sid. Adams has a terrific record as a Team Manager.

Belle Vue for me too Sid. That was a wonderful Team. Peter Ravn also rode for Belle Vue. 1981 - 83 and 1987- 1990. A very good and hard Rider if I remember correctly.

I did no know that regarding Grasstrack. Very interesting. As for the question you pose regarding Speedway - I'm afraid I have no answer for you. :sad:

On all fronts steve. Promoting, Presenting and also on the Television. He was a Master of all three in my opinion.

Yes Sid - once he had beaten Mauger I thought - that's it. He looked really good and so fast. I will never forgive Persson for that.

Well - at least I am not alone. Thank you Aces51.

I sincerely hope that you are right.................................

Ivan Mauger was one who springs to mind for keeping records of a Referee's tactics. Apparently he had it down to a fine art.

Am I alone in worrying whether or not Belle Vue will be riding in 2017? The start of the Season is getting awfully close?
