  1. My son rode Motor Cross for several years, his bike cost £4,000 it was not new, it cost him £35 to enter a meeting, plus fuel to and from a meeting, if he wins a race (Which is very rare) he gets a cup worth £5 He couldn’t believe it when he was speaking to Speedway rider in the NL and not a very good one,who told him when he rides he gets traveling allowance, his racing insurance pay for, then if he wins a race he gets £45, and he has 4 races, can I suggest Speedway riders try Motor Cross then they will realise how lucky they are
  2. Thanks, I know who it is now, but what’s he done
  3. I’ve heard about this BSPA fair dodger, who or what is he/she
  4. Was anyone at the Sale of Ivan Maugers Bikes and memorabilia, just wondering how much they went for
  5. Someone got out of bed the wrong side this morning
  6. all the above is very interesting however ae the topic is Swindon Stadium, any updates on the progress or lack of
  7. I’ve only ever been to 1 Wolves end of Season do, and it will always live in my mind because of the speech that Peter Adams give, pure classic, did he give one last night
  8. In today’s day and age any Promoter can run a track for 30 years deserves a medal, a Gold one at that, never any story’s of riders getting payed. The time he spent as Chairman had a detrimental effect on Wolves as I would think that position takes up so much time
  9. Who was your Team Manager at Bell Vue
  10. Some advice:never listen to a SCB Referee when he’s had a few drinks I was taken hook line and sinker when one told me the the new owners of Birmingham Speedway had experience in 3 areas of Speedway and then it was announced would Sam Ermolemko go to the pits after heat 6, then would Nigel Pearson go to the pits after heat 8, I just could not believe my eyes when David Mason took the Helmet off. But what a brilliant night of Speedway well done to all the riders and what a crowd just the sort of send off Tony Mole deserves, I was surprised how many Coventry fans were in attendance, really pleased it was Coventry and not Cradley
  11. Only just got back from an amazing weekend, The Poles really do like there Speedway, and the Beer is so strong and it doesn’t cost a lot, Anyway no it was not Graham Reeve, I won’t say who the Ref was, that would be unfair on him, he would not divulge the names of the new owners, only there involvement in Speedway and trust me it was not for the want of trying, don’t know if it was Present or Past involvement, but he was sure, and at the time he was sober, not that I could say that a bit later in the night
  12. Just been Speaking to a current SCB Referee in Torun,must say he was a little bit drunk but really good company, so I took the opportunity to ask him if he was aware of the new owners at Birmingham, as first he said no idea, but just before he left the bar he told me it was the 3 that everyone was saying ie Word Champ,Best Manager in British Speedway, and the announcer, so make of that as you will, he also said that CVS is passing over Wolverhampton to his son, So big changes in the Midlands this winter, anyway I’m off to cheer on Smolinski
  13. These meetings are ridiculous, however I will look at it on BT but only to listen to how Pearson and Tatum explain the situation were 2 Riders in one team also ride for the other team, I will be listening with great interest, I occasionally have friends around to see the Speedway not for these I’d be to embarrassed.
  14. I think you will find that a very high proportion of the Fine will be suspended for a period of time subject to future conduct
  15. When Ivan was riding he Promoted the indoor at Wembley
  16. That’s exactly what I thought
  17. Maybe Phil Rising can answer this: can a current Speedway rider hold both a Riders license AND a Promoters license
  18. Dam must wait another week to find out who the new owner is,
  19. They seems to be favourites, ah well all will be revealed tomorrow
  20. You really should be very very careful what you print uk martin Terry as the best barristers in the country, and unless you can provide this statement you could find your self in big trouble
