Russell has always been a bit of a wideboy. I imagine his interest in the sport fizzled out when his cut of Sky money stopped. Doubt he's even interested in reviving Swindon anymore. The worst out of all of this is Rossiter and Kilby. These are supposedly Swindon through and through and have backed the bullsh1t and lies for many years and even had a pop at the fans for questioning GI and the new stadium. Rosco sitting on bikes with plans and telling everyone it will happen was pathetic You could see it wasn't happening from a mile off but Rosco wouldn't have it. He's happy to get front and centre when a trophy is being lifted but he has been very quiet lately.

Some cracking racing second half of the meeting. Nothing wrong with the track and didn't cause any of the injuries. That safety fence doesn't look right at all. Zero give in it and Thomsen's bike flew 30 foot down the straight when it bounced off it. No wonder he ended up with a compound fracture going in feet first.

Diabolical decision to choose 1 and 3 for the final. That decision cost them the gold.

Shocking exclusion

Track to dry to produce any decent racing. The home side chucked away lots of points riding a wide line and kept going backwards.

Just ignore the silly old fool. He wants a rise, don't give it to him

Sounds like it's looking more positive looking on the Rye Facebook page. Fair play to the RHAG for their efforts. Track measurements taking place. Interesting what area they will have to work with as possible junior football pitch in the middle plus it looked as though there was paving over where the track used to be. I'd hope if there is a blank canvas that they contact Chris Morton and get the dimensions for the NSS or the Oak Tree Arena. Obviously, it wouldn't be as big but something that rides the same as those tracks would be ideal.

The crowds were down by way more than half. The average in 2017 must have been around the 1,500 mark as there were some big crowds that year at Rye. On a Monday or Wednesday night they were down to 500 for some of them and remember being at the Leicester meeting in 2018 on a Monday/Wednesday with crap weather and there couldn't have been more than 400 max. Fixed race nights killed the club and those two clowns, Godfrey and Chapman refused to let Rye go back to Saturday nights and preferred to kill the club instead. This is why no one takes the sport seriously in this country. We are killing clubs and using fixed race nights so riders can ride for multiple teams. The two leagues are no different in standard now. I have hardly attended a British meeting since Rye closed as it's mickey mouse with riders riding for two clubs at basically the same level. There can't be any attachment to riders and must look completely insane to outsiders.

Proper speedway, Nige! How the sport should be done. Bewley riding the air fence

Poles in a different league. Thought Kemp and Flint were poor in all honesty and pretty slow. Brennan excellent and needs to get rides in Poland and Sweden next season. Impressed by the young aussie Rew.

Lambert has come across as a bit thick in the GP's. His first and second bend moves have been poor and he has put himself in some awful positions generally on track which have cost him points. His gating is dire as well at the top level. Great talent but a hell of a lot of developing to do.

Rye House was one of a few profitable tracks from 2000-2017 and Len Silver never lost money at Rye House. If you come up with nonsense and ask if anyone can make money then you are showing a lack of knowledge. It's no wonder someone has a pop. What a strange observation. I wouldn't have thought anyone gives a toss where you live. It's an objection to a planning application. Do you think the applicant is going to put nasty messages through your letterbox?

The BSPA have been asked to put out the link to object to planning but aren't interested. I noticed they put the link to object to Coventry out last week though. Tossers. This sort of crap and the way the BSPA played a significant role in the closure of Rye House, it's no wonder the sport is dying on its arse. Not a surprise at all. BMR and Scott wouldn't have hung around for long though with his bankruptcy/financial issues. Always thought the way Musk got hold of the lease was dodgy what with Scott being made bankrupt and HMRC probably sniffing around at that period... Did Scott owe him money(must have known each other through the motorsport/construction world) and offered the stadium??

The arrogant tosser(Ricky Musk) had to withdraw his last one as it was embarrassing.

Schroeck used to come out with the same nonsense when he was TM at Rye House. Awful TM who is afraid to take reserves out of rides and completely miss T/S opportunities.

Always thought Garry Steads terrible injury could have been avoided. Jordan Frampton was a fair way behind the action as I recall and just piled into Stead who was laying on the track rather than dropping the bike on a six pence.

So he's eventually found some mug to buy him a couple of bikes

Think that'll be the last you'll see of speedway in Swindon. Sad.

Link should be fine. Must be an issue their end with server/maintenance on the website...

Sounds like Musk is doing all this without planning permission. T0sser. The whole episode needs looking into how he got the lease from BMR/Liquidators, why the planning permission for the gymnasium was never made public and how he has been able to get away with flattening the place when he doesn't have permission and goes against the terms of the lease...
