Wiseguy Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Well, first off, I had no idea where to put this fixture, not really anywhere for teams with no homes, So as Somerset are the hosts, this is where its going Absolutely fantastic for Falcons fans to have a team to support, even if it is for just 1 night, and it has to be said a massive thanks to all at Somerset for having us Obviously Exeter have no riders, so a team of guests have been chosen, with the exiting Bradley Wilson Dean at number 1, the rest of the team is made up of Danny Halsey, Lee Payne, Luke Chessell, Connor Coles, Tyler Govier and Harvey Banks. Cradley have Ben Morley riding at number 1, with Matt Williamson ,Aaron Mogridge ,rider replacement - Nathan Greaves, Ellis Perks, Adam Sheppard + A.N other I know the Falcons are running coaches from Exeter for the meeting, and hopefully there will be others making the journey, I will be driving down from Kent should work commitments allow Hopefully a decent crowd come out in support, Cradley fans travel in their numbers so fingers crossed for a great and safe meeting You honestly don't appreciate how great it feels to be starting a thread about an upcoming Falcons fixture, and really hope this is the start of something, but for the moment, Lets enjoy what should be a great meeting between 2 great names in the sport. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ghosty Posted June 23, 2015 Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 Cradley............. PLEASE do not use rider replacement, there must be a rider somewhere keen to get a ride! With Bradley Wilson Dean Exiting that's all we need? Full commitment needed from both teams & management to make this a success. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wiseguy Posted June 23, 2015 Author Report Share Posted June 23, 2015 You know, I wish people would come on here more and pick me up on a spelling mistake or the fact its in the wrong section (although technically there is no correct place) rather than comment on how great it is to see a defunct team get back on track 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MattJ81 Posted June 24, 2015 Report Share Posted June 24, 2015 To be honest I'm not sure how many Cradley fans will be at this one, this is the third meeting in a week including a trip to Mildenhall on Sunday and the team is essentially a Cradley select due to availability/injury (though I agree it is a real shame we couldn't find a rider to fill Nathan's space rather than use R/R) I haven't been to Somerset for some years though, and I had planned to take the kids at some point so it's a definite maybe for me at present. Really good to see the Exeter name back on track in a full meeting - fingers crossed it is a step towards a full return Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

bruno Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 Can't set out till about 3 so hope the m5 behaves! And the weather! ! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squibby Posted June 25, 2015 Report Share Posted June 25, 2015 The Met Office website for tomorrow says some rain between 10am and midday, and maybe a shower or two again around 3pm, but by 6pm it gives glorious sunshine right through the evening ( well, until it gets dark at least ! ). So, it is looking ok for the first 15-heat meeting for Exeter Falcons since 2005. OK, I know it is only a Select side, but it will still be a night to remember !! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(The weather). fingers crossed i've packed my speedo's . at 5pm it was wellies & brolly. at 6pm the sky was clearing, at 7pm they were watering the track. The British weather still couldn't spoil things.Good evening had by all, good luck Exeter with finding that piece of land we are all looking for. pete cc 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Clutchstart05 Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Nobody knew just how this meeting would go except that Rob Doran and Alan Spencer were taking a big risk just putting it on. But after a wet afternoon and worries over traffic chaos on the M5 it turned into a glorious evening, a 700 plus crowd, and plenty of fantastic racing. The Heathens put on a terrific show, but this was all about the Falcons' fans coming together after ten years and proving that there is still a big demand for speedway in Exeter. Thank you Cradley for showing us what can be achieved. The Falcons are coming back! Great pictures Ian. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Penny Cross Posted June 28, 2015 Report Share Posted June 28, 2015 Would be good if the Plymouth promotion would allow the Falcons to stage a meeting at the SBA. Well done to both teams. Good to see you back. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clutchstart05 Posted June 29, 2015 Report Share Posted June 29, 2015 (edited) Yes it would be good but sadly no chance of that. We are not wanted down there. Edited June 29, 2015 by Clutchstart05 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
