  1. It will be fine, just calm down stop and being pessimistic. The Fen Tigers are back !!
  2. It will be met Normski, now everybody get behind the project if you can
  3. Dont give up too quickly 🙂
  4. MILDENHALL ARE BACK 🙂 Well done to all the genuine fans for coming today and getting behind the project. All it needs now is for the BSPA to rubber stamp their admittance to the NDL (surely the BSPA wont block them). For me, as a Rye House die hard I can now come on Saturday nights and cheer on the opposition except when Kent Crusaders/Kings/Eagles visit (I am still disgusted about what shenanigans went on in October down at Iwade) and I hope Mr Ribbons has his team motivated for what will surely be a don't miss evening
  5. Spot on both of you. Good luck in 2025
  6. First things first, the Mildenhall fans have a chance to see their team on track, as a Rockets fan since 1970 I would love that chance (I cant believe I am encouraging you guys as I by nature always support the away team when I visit West Row) but I hope you can group together and get your team back. I dont know the full team but I am sure it will be competitive and as all teams, riders become available during the season and they can strengthen as the season progresses.
  7. See, isnt it lovely when fans can pontificate on who will be in their team instead of will we have a club, well all you need to do is to come on the 2nd February and make it happen.
  8. Hi Ray Stadia, You indicate "your confused" can you please clarify what your confused about and I will happily help.
  9. I was the accountant for the Rye House revival in 1999 and I can confirm that we actually made a profit and by the end of the season it was so positive that Len Silver took it over the following year. I will give you the benefit that you are misinformed and you dont have an ulterior motive to slander Steve Ribbons and if you were, could you please withdraw your accusations. To all genuine Mildenhall supporters this is a realistic and probably chance to have your club back so go on the 2nd February and decided for yourself if RoundTheBoards or Rayleigh is right.
  10. Great news for Mildenhall fans and Speedway fans in general. A message to the Mildenhall fans, Steve Ribbons (a Rye House fan through and through) is prepared to get you back on track so go to his meeting and support him however he asks this is your chance to get your team back and as a Rye House fan (and dont forget fans of Coventry, Peterborough, Lakeside, Swindon, Cradley Heath, just to name a few) I know how precious that opportunity is. Good luck in 2025 Mildenhall (I cant believe im saying it but I do mean it) 🙂 R.I.P Kelvin and Ted David E
  11. Just looking in from the outside it seems Ipswich want Emil but surely Artum Laguta is a better rider. From a Rye House opinion
  12. Rob is right, Steve is putting up one helluva fight and hes not won yet but he has made significant progress. The opposition are learning the old adage "Its not the size of the dog in the fight but the size of the fight in dog"
  13. Great song - Dont give up on us baby - David Soul Great film - Never say never again - James Bond Great Book - Great Expectations - Charles Dickens
  14. Thank you everyone for signing
  15. Dont be too hard on the Mildenhall promotion they drew the short straw today. The track was dry at 2.45 at 3.15 Mark Spitz did a lap of honour doing the breaststroke. I left at that point realising that there was no chance of any racing and only riding isn't speedway for me. I presume that the real motivation for trying to "get to 10 heats" was to avoid all the re-admission tickets (i was pleasantly surprised how many were in the stadium) for another meeting. This would have been a big loss for the promotion in an already tough financial year. As a Rayleigh then Rye House fan I am far from a Mildenhall supporter but I do urge fans to put today down to bad luck and continue to support the club through the rest of the year.
  16. A big thank you for all of you who have contributed to a riders plight who has not ridden for a half a century. Speedway fans are a different class And if anybody would also like to make a donation big or small, its not too late.
  17. Very sad to read about Allen Emmetts current plight. It was him with Maloney, Saunders, Brown and Nigel Rackett that hooked me into speedway for over 50 years. Well done to Tony @ Retro Speedway for starting a GoFundMe page. As I would have shouted as a 12 year old "keeping going Allen, dont konk out"
  18. Oh how I`ve missed a Steve Shovlar balanced match report.
  19. Good point I plan to go to Peterborough and Eastbourne so be aware fans of those teams
  20. Congratulations on another 1st class edition. As somebody who enjoyed watching speedway at Rye House, Arena Essex/Lakeside, Hackney, Crayford, Canterbury, Boston, Exeter, Weymouth, Stoke, Buxton, Coventry, Milton Keynes and Rayleigh You don't know what you have until its gone GO A BUY A COPY OF THE SPEEDWAY STAR TODAY !!
  21. In 1986 Rye House had Kelvin Mullarkey and Rob Woofinden AS A PAIR. This wins this thread hands down
  22. Thanks for your support Chris. You have always been direct but I have nearly always agreed with your comments You don't need to like Steve Ribbons and if you have past issues with him please park it Right now he is doing everything he can to try to save the day for Rye House, its gonna be hard but he has made real progress (it would be bad timing to list the details right now). Keep going Big Steve.
  23. John, The lease says Motor Sports clearly, now councils have been known to ignore such clear directives hence why we have an ex planning officer in communication with the council.
  24. You are correct Ben91 that is the hope however longshot it is.
