Yes read it on FB, very sad news

Agree not many tourists are going to travel from Keswick Windermere etc unless they are Speedway fans on holiday in the Lake District.Poole or Belle Vue on the other hand might attract some passing punters.

Glasgow looking like top dogs again with Ipswich and probably Sheffield !!!

Some things do not take any money or very little to make things better in Speedway.

What will bring them back

Most clubs in the championship would like to sign Bewley, hopefully he will ride for his local club!!

Great rider, very entertaining to watch, all the best for the future Tomasz,

Williamson’ Proctor or Bickley. How about: Wells Williamson Proctor Jorgensen Bewley Bickley Aarnio Probably over the points limit but decent side,

True , is pencilled in at reserve .......if we run.

Workington also applied for Friday but were refused.

Some good news with the abolition of the TR and fixed race nights for the Premier League , which should help matters, I still think much more could have been done however ie with prompt start times and meeting running shedules. Its good news that the Workington Comets are still in business but I cannot see where more fans are going to come from, running with attendances between 300-550 people cannot be viable again next year.

Because Glasgow and Scunthorpe applied to, nothing against Worky promotion but there was no Promoters at the AGM from Workington due to family reasons.

None of the Workington promoters attended due to family commitments

Workington applied to run on Fridays but we’re turned down because Glasgow and Scunthorpe had applied to run on Fridays

TBC (also t.b.c.) ABBREVIATION To be confirmed.

Melbourne confirmed last round......tbc

Well said, all well and good introducing fixed race nights but try to get the product right as well!!

What about Ipswich Sheffield and Redcar are Friday or Saturday nights feasible.

As always difficult to predict 1Dudek 2Woffinden 3Doyle 4Zmalik I give up after that, I think Cook will have about 2 or 3 decent GPs but may struggle in the rest, Pedersen to have a bad year even though I would like him to be back to his best. As for Hancock could be top three or struggle to make top eight!

I feel the product needs some set standards that need to be adhered to across all clubs. This includes prompt start times, no long drawn out meetings, riders having some real attachments to clubs not just riding free lance which has got to now, no TR rule, better presentation, tightening up of the rules....some of the things that have gone on in 2017 have been laughable. Do I think things will change for the greater good in 2018.....no.

Richard Lawson has signed for Opole

Yes that’s the team’awesome

Team full of heat leaders if I remember Kenny Carter at reserve

Ag Agree I think this needs a topic on its own Track lighting is there a standard for all tracks. I very much doubt it

A parade is ok if it starts 10minutes before the programmed start time.
