SCB Posted March 10, 2017 Report Share Posted March 10, 2017 Still wrong imo. There will be riders that get injured in the 1st weeks of the season that would have paid out £1000's for nothing in return. Riders come and go through financial difficulty all the time, is sad but that's Speedway. The main focus should be on the club alone and nothing else So don't donate. It's entirely up to you. As it is NSSC have over the years donated thousands to various (Bees) from 50/50 sale and this is no different really, just the money is coming in a different way.

The main focus should be on the club alone and nothing else but those riders will get assistance - via their insurance and potentially the Ben fund. Someone like Sarj wont qualify for either.

oleoleole Posted March 11, 2017 Report Share Posted March 11, 2017 It does seem to have disappeared. I noticed it wasn't working late last night but I hadn't had any notification from Just Giving so assumed there was no major problem and left it until this morning. It all appears fine now. I've no idea what the problem was, sorry. Russ Bott NSSC Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mdmc82 Posted March 23, 2017 Report Share Posted March 23, 2017 COVENTRY are pleased to add another Challenge match to their schedule with a visit to SGB Premiership newcomers Rye House now agreed. The match at Hoddesdon will take place on Saturday May 6 (7pm), which was a previously scheduled date for a league encounter between the clubs. And it is set to be a major Coventry re-union as four of the Rockets team have ridden extensively for the Bees during their careers. Chris Harris (2004-10, 2012, 2014-16), Scott Nicholls (2005-07, 2009, 2012-13), Edward Kennett (2009-12) and Stuart Robson (1995-6, 1998-2004, 2013, 2015) all have strong connections with the club, whilst at reserve Robert Branford is a former member of Coventry Storm in the National League. As with the match at Wolverhampton on April 10, Rory Schlein will be appearing in the Coventry team in place of Kenneth Bjerre. We would like to thank Steve Jenson and all at Rye House for their help and co-operation in arranging this fixture.

Gemini Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 The match at Hoddesdon will take place on Saturday May 6 (7pm), which was a previously scheduled date for a league encounter between the clubs. Hopefully Leicester won't plan on having a fixture the same day as we would be missing Danny and Josh if they do. At the moment it is just 'Reserved.'

Woz01 Posted March 24, 2017 Report Share Posted March 24, 2017 It will get to a point where most of the riders have team spots but it's about keeping the Coventry Bees name going. They've always said that we will bring in guests that have history at Coventry. The likes of Bomber, Schelin and Howarth are already booked in for meetings.

mdmc82 Posted April 12, 2017 Report Share Posted April 12, 2017 (edited) SUPPORTERS interested in car sharing for next Wednesday's match at Poole are asked to get in touch with us. If you plan to drive to Wimborne Road and could offer a lift to other supporters, please let us know your details and where you would be starting from. Likewise, if you would like to go to the meeting but cannot drive there, send us your details and where you would be able to get to in order to be picked up. Please contact info@savecoventryspeedway.com if this would interest you, and we will try to put you in touch with someone who can help. Though many riders now have either full-time or temporary places in other teams, all riders with the exception of Kenneth Bjerre who now races for Belle Vue have remained committed to riding for the Bees, meaning fans have a team to support on the road Wednesdays meeting at Poole Stadium starts at 7.30pm.
