Col Posted October 6, 2016 Report Share Posted October 6, 2016 No, I'm in Scotchland. I realise it's grim up North but I can guarantee you Manchester has it's own international airport. It has an international Airport, which is about 15 miles South of the city. Driving to the airport from the South is fine, beyond that it all turns awful.

nw42 Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 It has an international Airport, which is about 15 miles South of the city. Driving to the airport from the South is fine, beyond that it all turns awful. The airport is 8 miles from the centre of Manchester, it's one road all the way, a dual carriageway that becomes a motorway for the last 3 miles or so. 25 minutes drive in traffic. Driving to it from the south invariably means using the M6/M56 but there are alternatives, A34 for example. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mickthemuppet Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 Was "Belle Due" A deliberate mistake? The profit and loss of speedway clubs including Belle Vue will absolutely shock you. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 (edited) The profit and loss of speedway clubs including Belle Vue will absolutely shock you. It surely depends on which set of accounts you are shown?! ;-) Not forgetting what type/size of car the promoter drives!

longlivefrankie Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 After Cook's OTT reaction, you're right. I'm sure they be fine arch rivals suddenly become teammates isn't that usual Never gonna happen but fast Freddie would be a outstanding number 1 round the NSS Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's his sort of track really. Edited October 7, 2016 by Perton Wolf Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Col Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 This question is do both Worrall's come in on half their converted PL average as both have spent time in the reserve berth or just Steve because he was the EDR? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
damosuzuki Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 It has an international Airport, which is about 15 miles South of the city. Driving to the airport from the South is fine, beyond that it all turns awful. My point is: A top rider rides in Poland. Flies into Manchester airport, Rides at Belle Vue. Flies back. This guy ain't driving down South. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

This guy ain't driving down South. BV isn't the only team with such major transport links though, Birmingham Airport is not far from Wolverhampton. The whole airport distance/convenience debate doesn't seem to have made much difference in top riders considering if they want to ride in the UK anyway.

poolebolton Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 It's just not that. Aus riders live in England and they would rather live in South than North due to heat. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GM Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 If there is any truth in the amount of money that Belle Vue owe both in rent for there stadium and the amount the riders are owed I don't think we will see Belle Vue next season under the current promotion. Hope these strong rumours are wrong but to many people saying the same thing riders included. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steve Shovlar Posted October 7, 2016 Report Share Posted October 7, 2016 From what I have heard it is unfortunately beyond life support. Lets hope for changes this winter. We don't want to lose the best race track in the country. If the council come in the place could end up as an athletics stadium. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
