  1. I wonder which today are the stadiums which have the biggest capacity. I would think Ipswich would be the biggest and perhaps the only one that could take over 10,000 punters.
  2. In his book Harry Findlay said he paid 1.5m for the lease to run greyhounds there and lost the lost. He also said he could have bought Brandon Stadium at the same time for £2m
  3. The Ochiltree's also sold Leicester speedway for development previously
  4. I was there that night. Certainly had the crowd on their feet
  5. Look up Mike Parker then I think at one time he was involved with 13 clubs and without him there would probably be no speedway in this country today
  6. They are not landlords at Foxhall Stadium they have a lease there Foxhall Stadium is owned by Ipswich Speedway Limited
  7. Quite an easy answer to that which is a Speedway meeting is much, much dearer to put on the a stock car meeting.
  8. You are indeed correct it was Lea Bridge It had Colin Watson and Ron Johnson in it
  9. Why are Ipswich doomed when they have not even announced their team yet O ye of little faith
  10. I just wonder is Tai would have would have got more of a mentioned if he was not bedecked in tattoos and looked a bit more like Bruce Pennell
  11. Looks like Kings Lynn will be the weakest of the three East Anglian teams
  12. I would think you would need at least 5,000 punters to pay for those three
  13. Great night for betting though-the night most bookmakers stopped betting on non televised meetings
  14. Where do you get your information from . Professional tennis has never been run by the players so why print such rubbish
  15. Please can we have no more postings about Jarek Hampel coming back to Ipswich as it is never going to happen
  16. There are many promoters in Speedway that have run more than one club at the same time and have done well
  17. Ken Le BRETON --known as the white ghost
  18. But he had qualifying rounds at Belle Vue and West Ham (Which he also won) to get to Wembley in 1950
  19. Under the old World Championship the most successful rider was Freddie Williams with two world championships and one runner's up. But then it was open to all riders and not like today when it is only a few are allowed to enter
  20. I think the new track will look like Reading's does today
  21. Why not have a Grand Prix like we have and an individual World Champion like we used to have . Then everybody would be happy. Darts have both
