Sadly I'm going to have to miss this one as I will be in Dorset. Good luck to The Storm.

Hope to be there tomorrow night, weather permitting. Great value speedway racing if previous meetings are anything to go by. :t:

Weather forecast good --come on down!!

Yes sorry - hadn't meant to put anyone off, just not checked the weather in the last 24 hours or so.

Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the Updates site? If so, can you please send me a private message including your mobile number.

 

Thanks

I didnt expect to see Stoke struggling this badly, Smartie and Hughesy were both gambles by Malcolm, Hughesy is upping his average, but Lee ? doesnt seem to be even close to what he was before, worrying times for mr V. Storm well they have added a couple of riders to there original Team, both were tough decisions to make, but they have been justified with the scores by Branford and Crang, perhaps even more pleasantly surprised by Knuckey having to ride at 2, and tonight saw a return to form of Sarj & Brendan, well done Storm..

Another pretty enjoyable meeting,very pleasing to see the team top of the league,even at this early stage.No reason if they can keep this form up,they can't be challenging for the title at the business end of the season.Without doubt this is the best decision that Horton has made so far in his tenure at Brandon,and for that he does deserve great credit.Hopefully the crowds will continue to grow,as the price is reasonable,and generally the racing is a pretty decent level.

Just a word, now if Mick Horton could offer free admission to one NL fixture, with a lesser attractive EL meeting, this might, just might attract a few of the stay awayers to watch a NL meeting, its far more attractive as a spectacle then in Coventrys Conference League days, and this Team has far more potential, than that Team ever had. :wink:

Another very enjoyable meeting last night with the Storm lads performing very well indeed. I thought it would be a lot closer with the experience of riders such as Smart, Chessel, Reade and Priest.

Pretty decent crowd again too.

My first venture to national league racing at coventry and will not be my last.

 

Great entertainment and good racing too.

 

Took my 7 year old daughter to her first speedway meet and she said "dad can we come again"

 

Well impressed with the attitude of joe Jacobs in shutting off on lap 4 bend 4 to allow

James sergeant his full maximum. (Good on you joe !)

 

Credit to mick Horton and what was/is a gamble, but hey more like Friday's meeting

And people spreading the word will hopefully repay your effort.

 

Mention to about Martin Knuckey, 100 percent trier and was rewarded for it.

Pity about 2 minute exclusion for his 4th ride
