I'm so pleased you have friends and another sport to take the continued disappointment away from your local speedway.

Yes apologies Glasgow fans. It wasn't me who started it!!!

Yep I've been shortly after it opened and also attended a wedding! Very nice too. Matt and Helen do look after their sponsors and friends same as Mervyn Stewkesbury and Pete Ansell did!! Although I also visit Portugal regularly too. So convenient from the local airport.

Aah I see you are familiar with such parties Lewy. Rather you than me.

If the BSPL wanted a cheap holiday they would simply choose Le Chateau - again!

Ah yes the George. I remember those days when I used to drink at speedway - long passed nowadays as it used to skew my opinions. Didnt realise it had a pool table!

As I'm unable to do away meetings any more it'll have to be if you travel up to Poole. Hopefully I'll be in my usual grandstand seat overlooking the start/finish line.

Asking if Plymouth are hoping to run is surely a fair question in.light of Mark Philips' recent statements re lack of finance?! It could have a bearing on the final points limit. Why would any club wish to lose a 'local derby' even if it means meeting 6 times a season? You are so tetchy Lewy!

The Facennas visited Matt inPoole a couple of seasons ago to get all the hints and tips to build year on year successful teams. Good to see they took it all on board at least for one season! Let's see what happens in 2024. (BTW are Plymouth definitely running)?

Long gone thank goodness!!

That's so true! And it's in Tenerife again(rather than uk) to discourage any promoters from walking out!!!

With Danny on the BSPL Board I doubt he'll make any announcements til after the AGM rubber-stamping in a couple of weeks time!

Rew has signed for Vojens

A Dane for a Wednesday track? Nah. Been there, done it!!

Believe again!!

Rew said he wouldn't do Championship in 2023 because it would be too much for his racing calendar despite detailed discussions with Matt/Danny before he put pen to paper for Ippo! I don't see that changing too much - unless there's been a big re-think by all concerned. As for the Premiership rumour there would need to be a complete 360° turnaround by Matt/Danny from only a few weeks ago. Crowds have been really good in Championship with approx 30% lower costs and I still maintain even if there was an attractive enough incentive then the Prem would need to allow Wednesday racing. After all Mons/Thurs are only a priority race night not a must!

My old grandfather clock has just stopped. Probably needs a wind-up!?

Basso wasn't a financial situation, it was the fixture clashes by continuing Wednesday racing with Poole!!

Happy Birthday Ben Cook!

Exactly!! someone released from another club or someone new to Championship?

Quick question - when has anyone ever bought something they've seen advertised on the back of a bus? Just asking......

He was making the point that as a successful promoter he could/would work with the Stox promoter who wanted to own the stadium,to run speedway successfully.

What, like adding his weight to the Save Coventry Stadium fight?!

I was going to say a resounding 'NO' - But if the Premiership (or whats left of it) allowed Poole to race Wednesdays, who knows? Although if he did I reckon he would want to be much more 'hands on' than being in France allows!

You clearly weren't at Wimborne Road a few weeks ago when Jack, his missus and new born baby were greeted by the Poole crowd and interviewed by Nigel in front of the main grandstand!
