During lockdown people didnt have many choices in the area to go to, since the country oppened up people are going to other attractions..

It was just a thought!!! And I wasnt sure if you had to be in a 1-7 for the league your guesting in

I may be wrong but I thought that Martin didn't have anything to do with the Stadium anymore?

Maybe because he's not in a clubs official declared 1-7..

IF the BSPL are holding things up with statements etc what about the riders? If the club is going to close they are running out of time to get fixed up elsewhere..

Apparently there was a short statement but this has now been removed from the website

I cant see an update from today just the one from the 17th?

I think you will find that dark clouds are over most speedway tracks now and in the near future..

Lee is a welcome part of the Eastbourne management team and he has worked tirelessly for Eastbourne. You can obviously question a few things about Eastbourne this season but not the role Lee has done for the club, keep your powder dry on this one...

Any idea what year?

The best of the young British talent are already tied up with Polish clubs, Kemp, Rowe and Brennan already have a team in Poland.. For me, after Bewley, Tom Brennan looks like he will break through to Poland

I agree with you, adding another possible top heat leader will not be cheap to go with IF any riders do become available due to the demise of another club then possibly strengthen the engine room of the side would be better team wise and affordable. Kyle Newman would spring to mind if available.

So it now seems sadly

I think thats pretty much the only hope at the moment but its a slim one..

With all due respect, you don't know that and it comes across as your questioning Eastbourne's business model without knowing the facts and coming across a little ITK..

Hes got a point, you need more clubs in the top league and a watered down lower legue with minimal doubling up.. trouble is, riders wouldnt make that pay in either league

Wait until Tuesday then form an educated decision

Tom Brennan is a talented rider, you have to remember he had a bad break to his leg missing a season and then he had the Covid season so almost had 2 really important years lost of his development. so going off the back of virtually 2 years out he’s an outstanding talent, head and shoulders above his age group

I first went to Arlington in 1976, seen a few laps around the place. From a fan to involved with a rider and now a sponsor of 2 of the riders and a few past, this could be heartbreaking.

Eric and Margret Dugard I think, Bobs Widow and not the machine tools company.

True, when speedway first opened up a lot of other places to go were still closed so speedway was one of the few options to go for a night out. Now with other attractions open, people can go elsewhere. No idea about rent or income streams from the food outlets or bars..

Very sad news, RIP Phil

Yes, thats a bit poor and its coming across as a bit desperate which is more of a worry..

I did say, non scoring first ride but after that...
