What is needed Shadders is a complete independent review. This is what major sports do nowadays from time to time. Rugby League are currently having one looking at the governance of the sport.

Speedway isn't like other sports though is it because the people running it want to make money out of it as it is, in a lot of cases, their livelihood.

All this talk of Colchester Speedway, are people not confusing it with Chelmsford? The Guilfoyles opened a training track on their farm at Little Waltham, Montpelier Farm which is on the Chelmsford to Braintree road. It is mentioned in the "Homes Of British Speedway" book. Johnny Guilfoyle is a former West Ham and Rayleigh rider and Rye House promoter, while his son Laurie rode for Hackney and Rayleigh. The book states that they were brothers, which is incorrect.
