Safety issues confirmed by Eric in a BBC interview - on bbc news website /sussex

You may know more on this but don’t local councils have health and safety duties and powers, discharged alongside the HSE?

Stadium is licensed for safety. I think the word is certificate rather than licence but effectively it is one and the same

No licence for public use as stadium, is a likely reason.

No longer has licence?

It was, if my info is correct.

Heard that another group offered a small fortune

Been offered a lot of money but answer comes back No.

My record this year: Klint testimonial- racing curtailed Lynn home meeting - off because it might rain. Young Stars off - air fence did a runner Lynn v Northampton-dreadful in terms of racing Y Stars - off. Track staff ill. My patience has been sorely tried. 8 hrs round trip but I stay in hotel and hope for seeing two meetings in 3 days. I have scrubbed Young Stars from now on. Been had twice - there won’t be a third time. As to next year, there needs to be big changes for me to spend the money I have this year for little return.

BSPL site not been updated. Tech issue? Anything been said on socials?

Thank you. That’s Great. I do like Stars having local riders in the team.

Is Jordan Jenkins a Norfolk lad?

I think that is the issue. People attribute great power to Facebook. But not everyone has an account, not everyone looks regularly and FB can be fickle about what it does and does not show users. A working and reliable website would be a start.

Hearing Mildenhall struggling to attract a crowd. Be a shame if they sink.

It wasn’t a great occasion. Dodgy tracks, rip-off hotels, public transport awful and roadworks. Wembley knew how to deal with 90k fans. Tube trains lined up, coaches given parking space. Cardiff struggled with 30k fans. Cardiff was OK for those who wanted to be on the squirt but sadly fell short in other key areas.

They can send men to the moon but can’t tell you what the weather is going to be 48 hours ahead. Worse than ever this year. Weather forecasters must be at the bottom of the least trusted professions-making estate agents and journalists look like saints.

Top Gun Tom Topinka ref tonight at Glasgow for world championship qualifier.

Shocking. He will be lucky to keep his place at Edinburgh let alone Lynn.

Surprised you care. Probably best for you to avoid poking around in StarsvWitches rivalry as you stir up a hornets nest.

Does NORA exercise any control over ‘promoters’?

Kevin Jolly. Those who know have very long memories and will never, until the end of time itself, listen to any crocodile tears flooding from the eyes from the Witches and their supporters

If I comment about the hail at Buxton, it’s because I think of it as a badge of honour. 😀 boy was I glad of a really hot cup of tea. but can we have a warm day for when Lynn go. I’m a southern softie

Lawson like all riders are freelance and self employed. it is therefore his responsibility to pay for his kit. when my computer blew up, I paid for a new one. That’s how it works.

Spot on. I left Twitter X more than a year ago for that reason. When Twitter began there was a really nice group of speedway fans who interacted. Long gone.

There were Friday fixtures in Poland. Friday is not a Premier League designated day Stocks will rule roost at tracks where they race and they will pick days to suit them. So few fixtures these days, might as well race in summer rather than the Easter snow as we often used to,
