  1. I'm afraid we were never given a reason. This event took a lot of planning and was going to be one of our biggest events of the year so it has been very disappointing. However we do not want to fuel a witch hunt. In the end we had a great evening in the company of the ever professional Steve Brandon with an upbeat update from Jeff Davies on the latest situation at Brandon and a chat with Dan and Joe Thompson on the No Limits programme. For many years we have enjoyed great support from all walks of speedway life. Riders, team managers, referees, promoters and the media. They all give up their time to entertain and inform us and all proceeds from the events go to support Neil Vatcher and the GB Young Lions U16's. We are proud of what our little club achieves and the support we have. Our next event is a welcome return for Somerset's Debbie Hancock on 7th June (no pressure Debbie) We then have a special night on 21st June when all proceeds will be for the Speedway Riders Benevolent Fund. Our guests are Paul Ackroyd, Garry Stead, Stuart Robson and as Paul said one of his best customers, Adam Roynon. We have a couple of surprises planned and a raffle and auction to try and extract as much of your money as possible.
  2. ‪Unfortunately we understand that Keith Chapman is unable to attend tonight's meeting at the NSSC.‬ ‪At this very late notice we are doing our best to fill the guest void.‬ ‪Of course our host, Steve Brandon, will have plenty to say anyway so we will still have an enjoyable evening‬. We hope to see plenty of you there despite being let down so late in the day.
  3. Sorry. Just wanted to get this back to the top of the pile again. We are hoping for a good turnout for this event. It's very good of Keith to give up his evening and give us fans the opportunity to discuss the current state of British Speedway and its future. Everybody is welcome, only £3 entry and all money raised goes to help GB Youth speedway.
  4. For those of you who live within striking distance of Brandon you might want to make a note of this date in your diaries. Thursday 24th May, start time 7:45. Steve Brandon (BT Sport) will be hosting the evening and interviewing the BSPA Chairman, Keith Chapman. Everybody is welcome to attend with non-members only £3 and all proceeds to help Neil Vatcher and the GB Young Lions. The venue is The Brandon Club, Main Street, Brandon, Coventry, CV8 3HW (just down the hill from the stadium). It's a comfortable venue with a good bar (serving a particularly nice pint of Wye Valley's 'Butty Bach') and also serves hot drinks and light snacks.

  9. That would be great. I just get a Facebook page saying , "You must log-in to continue". Thanks.
  10. Is there anyway you can see this if you are not on Facebook ?
  11. How come this is still dragging on? How can riders (and teams) encourage sponsorship when they still don't know if the sponsors will get TV exposure. Surely by now race suits, bike covers etc need to be sorted.
  12. Tony Steele, who has a vast collection of old speedway films, showed this race a few months ago at an NSSC meeting. It was a terrific race in front of a packed Brandon stadium and even though most in the room would have known the result it still drew gasps and cheers and a spontaneous round of applause.
  13. We are very pleased to say that we have managed to organise some great evenings for the next few months. All these guests are giving up their time to help support British Youth speedway. Due to their efforts and fans support we have donated £2000 to Neil Vatcher's GB Young Lions U16's for the 2018 season. 1st Feb. Christina Turnbull and Barbara Horley 15th Feb. Simon Stead 8th March.

  15. Thanks for the link to the fixtures but I'm disappointed to see that there's hardly any fixtures in July. There's no meetings between 6th July and 8th August. Is this normal? We've booked a holiday in Sweden and Denmark from 14th to 28th July. We appear to be lucky in Sweden with meetings on the 17th & 18th but no Danish fixtures on 25th July has left a bit of a hole in the plans. Is there any chance of any speedway in Denmark from 24th to 27th July?
  16. The FIM SGP Race Director, Phil Morris, will be the next guest at the NSSC on Thursday 25th January, start time 8pm. Our venue is just down the road from Brandon stadium. Everybody is welcome at these events which comprise of a Q&A and questions from the floor. Non-members are charged £3 with all funds going to Neil Vatcher's GB Young Lions. For directions, future guests and all information please visit our website; https://www.nuneatonspeedwaysupportersclub.co.uk Thank you.
  17. Can anybody confirm that this is correct. Smederna's website also shows fixtures on both days. Then there's no fixtures on 24th July? Also in the Allsvenskan league there's a gap between 5th and 26th July. I was starting to plan a 2 week holiday in Sweden in July but it's all looking a bit odd. Thanks.
  18. So, so sad. What an absolute disgrace! (perfect choice of music)
  19. We've got some great evenings lined up to start 2018! 11th Jan. Steve Brandon 25th Jan. Phil Morris 27th Jan. Celebration of British Youth Speedway 1st Feb.
