  1. If Eastbourne called tonight off Mike, that would be almost two months without a home meeting. The NL has definitely turned into the poor relation of British speedway.
  2. Weather not looking brilliant for this one.
  3. The slow death started when Wembley was lost in 1981.
  4. Just checked the radar. That is some storm, it would never have been on.
  5. I was at Kent on Monday, and it certainly was a bizarre situation. It reminded me of being at Eastbourne when Kelly Moran was a little worse for wear.
  6. The rainfall radar i use is netweather. It is excellent and is updated every five minutes.
  7. Next Friday is a blank date, but it won't happen. Scunny are at home.
  8. I just thought I'd start a thread for tonight's meeting, even though the weather looks dodgy. Looks like a Home win, if it's on.
  9. What sad news. Ronnie was one of my first speedway heroes when I was a kid in the late 1960's. He was was still a top rider when he retired from British racing.
  10. Rye house would probably still be in business, if they'd been allowed to race on Saturdays.
  11. I admire your optimism. My days of travelling long distances to meetings in dodgy weather are well and truly over. I don't mind taking a punt at my local tracks, because the time and costs involved are minimal.
  12. Minimal travelling expenses as well!
  13. Not going to happen. Fridays, Saturday's and Sundays have to be kept clear in case Scunthorpe have a match.
  14. No doubt it will be much more interesting next season when it's one big league. Will the likes of Swindon drop down to Redcars level or visa versa. It's going to be a very important winter for sure.
  15. If there is racing at rye next season, any prospective new promoters would have to deal with BMR, as they own the lease and the stadium.
  16. Despite all of the chaos tonight, it actually was a decent meeting with some very good racing. The Steve boxall incident was a shocker, and no doubt more will be revealed In the coming days.
  17. The problem I have with pre meeting junior racing is, what if there is an incident that requires the ambulance to leave the stadium. This could have a serious impact on the main event, especially if the track has a curfew in place.
  18. With all the big meetings being awarded to Redcar, maybe the BSPA are trying to prop them up, just in case they are short on numbers.
  19. Poole v Eastbourne, that was a decent rivalry. Sadly missed.
  20. RIP Bob, a member of my beloved Wimbledon dons when I was a kid. I enjoyed the three years at white city in the 1970's, even though there was not many of us. I've no doubt that Eastbourne Speedway would have shut years ago if it wasn't for Bob. Thanks for the memories.
