Main Man Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Does anyone know when the NL fixtures are gooing to be announced? draft list out with clubs at the moment ....you know the dates at Cov anyway --Friday nights before the GP's Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century heathen Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 Wasn't that mostly rather than exclusively? And it doesn't tell you who visits when, and you can't plan away trips. It would be helpful to us poor souls handing over our hard earned to have a full (all clubs as I'm commenting from a Heathens perspective though on the Coventry thread) fixture list ASAP with the season start just a few weeks away now.

Gemini Posted February 7, 2013 Report Share Posted February 7, 2013 (edited) draft list out with clubs at the moment ....you know the dates at Cov anyway --Friday nights before the GP's Would that include the British G.P? I'm rather hoping not because quite a lot of fans head to Somerset/Wales for Friday and Saturday. Not me though - I'll be in Dorset and hoping not to miss a National League match as the cottage is booked Friday to Friday.

JonHWeiner Posted February 8, 2013 Report Share Posted February 8, 2013 draft list out with clubs at the moment ....you know the dates at Cov anyway --Friday nights before the GP's My problem is that I live in Kent so I want to know when the Storm will be at Sittingbourne. I am already going to miss the Bees away matches at Lakeside and Eastbourne because they are both while I am away on holiday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Richspeedway Posted February 12, 2013 Report Share Posted February 12, 2013 NL fixtures usually take a few weeks to be released after the EL and PL due to their AGM being slightly later. I never understood why they do not include the NL in the main AGM. It is like the Football League having a meeting and having the Championship and League 1 meeting together and then League 2 have their own one.

If you're in the EL meeting, how can you also be in the NL meeting next door? it makes sense for that meeting to be a few weeks later.

Why can't the NL promoters be in a room with the EL & PL promoters? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted February 24, 2013 Report Share Posted February 24, 2013 You've missed the point. Why can't the NL promoters be in a room with the EL & PL promoters? Because the EL and PL promoters are in different rooms. I believe they sort out general business and then split by league, that can't be done if you're running in 2 leagues.

Bolt Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 Any up-dates on how the Strom boys got on yesterday at P&P day? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Main Man Posted March 9, 2013 Report Share Posted March 9, 2013 (edited) Mixed time ..Brendan Johnson "blew" two brand new motors and never got out on track , drove home to Poole to swap engines then headed for the ferry to drive to Germany to practice with Kyle Newman ..dedication!! Rich Franklin was snapping chains and that prevented him from getting in as much practice as he wanted. Trevor Heath had carby and ignition gremlins but still manged some impressive laps. Sarj, Olly G and JJ put in some fast laps whilst Martin Knuckey got better each time he went out on what was a heavy wet track by the end. Roll on March 22nd and the visit of the Heathens! Body colours looked really good and the lads all looked so smart in their coats kindly sponsored by Gary Drinkwater of City Gearboxes (Coventry) Ltd --who is sponsoring the Mercia Vikings in the MDL and all the squad members plus has sponsored all seven Storm riders !!

Warriors Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 Blew two motors before getting on track what's the chances of that more chance of wining the lottery, I think catching the ferry was the only problem. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
21st century heathen Posted March 11, 2013 Report Share Posted March 11, 2013 blew two brand new motors. hmm, really Yes.
