  1. Connor Mountain. NBJ. Nicolai Klindt That would be a nice start to our team.
  2. BSPA site has been updated Cov vs Eastbourne 20/10/18. 6.30 start.
  3. Great news, really pleased Josh will be back with us.
  4. How can this be? If he is an old promoter , who was banned how could he personally have an asset base?
  5. It is my understanding, BT are not covering any of the cost !!!
  6. By the looks of it, Brandon has some new unwanted guests,
  7. The reason it has to be so low is due to a complaint about noise to the council.
  8. You are not wrong, it was Josh Bates who tried it first, he ended the night on 14 + 1 I think, the tight line into turn 1 and out of 2 is the new part of the track,
  9. Well this sounds like a personal attack to me? Not someone who is concerned about the track. Please correct me if I am wrong?
  10. I think the rule about 2 mins and centre green are linked and were changed at the same time. Riders were going over centre green when they would not of made it to the tapes in the 2 mins if they rode around the track. So for safety reasons, no one is allowed on centre green, also I think you only have to be under power and on track and not at the tapes when the 2 mins has elapsed .
  11. gracan, I hope you made the meeting, I hope you had an enjoyable night, accept the result of course.
  12. Sorry can not give any info today, I will be in Nottingham all day, should just get back in time for the meeting.
  13. Lots of work been done, I have been told its all good !! soft spot had been dealt with, People been working very hard by the looks of it. I have watched heavy machinery driving over it and it looks solid.
  14. Not exactly what you said, is it? Quote, That's me out then. Saw this coming a mile off ! Up to you what you do, nothing to do with me to be honest, I will be there, I am also sure if it is not on for whatever reason then plenty of warning would be given. I will take walk up to the track today, see if anyone is there, see what info I can get for you?
  15. Spoke to Danny last night, only a few words, asked what he thought about the track changes, he said the first 2 bend look a lot better and the straights look quite a bit shorter so should make a real difference.
  16. Understand not all Swindon fans live in Swindon. But as he did not state that he lived elsewhere I am not to know. I guess Gemini you must know where grachan lives as you quote 400 miles round trip. Swindon to Leicester is no more than 100 miles. My point is, if you are going to stay away then that's fine but please do not rubbish the meeting, which may affect others who read this forum.
  17. I am no track man, but from what I could see it was a very small part of the new bit of track, exit from turn 2 close to the kerb. Understand your concerns with travel, but to me Swindon to Leicester is about 2 hours drive, as I drive for a living I do not class that as very far, but also accept not everyone is like me. As for the guests its not my place to say, sure the club will release the names as and when they feel fit to do so.
  18. I think some people on here are being a bit harsh on the new promotion regarding the track. 6 weeks ago we very nearly had nothing !! We now have a promotion, who at great expense have tried to do what we were all asking for, track changes. Its my understanding after changing the track a soft spot appeared, it was ripped up and retried, If I am correct? It has had to be dug up again, this time going even deeper, just to try and get rid of the offending soft spot, Not ideal, but just do not think they deserve the comments they are receiving on here. Guests are booked for Sat, Why not just give it a go? Instead of being so negative saying you are going to stay away.
  19. I would agree, but think its mainly due to his Polish club, would miss lots of meetings.
  20. 2 changes at the Lions already, King and Bates come in.
  21. Just been up to the track, I am sure the changes will make a big difference! I hope all the people who have walked away over the last couple of years come back and show support for our new owners, they have wasted no time in trying to do what the fans have been asking for. So think its only right they are backed,
  22. went for a walk up near BP today, spoke to one of the volunteers, ask if he had any idea what was happening? His said he didn't know anything but thought a statement was going to be released tomorrow, not sure what it will tell us though?
  23. Yes it looks like Lions are sticking to Sat nights, but I would guess that all depends on if Cov run or not? Or maybe if Cov come and track share with us?
  24. I would not want Bees to fold. Would not like to see any side disappear . Just do not think it would be good for our club to go and Cov move in. That's just a bit to much to take.
