Hunters Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 The Web site says March 31st for the second leg of the Easter Chase which is Easter Saturday instead of the normal home and away on Good Friday the 30th. Is this certain or a typing error ? I need to know in order to fit another engagement in and Speedway comes first. Perhaps anyone attending the Staff meeting Sunday could ask the question in case it is a typo. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
teaboy279 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 Won't be able to do that opening away meeting now then, such a shame always great for 2 meetings in 1 day. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 very fair of the Eastbourne promotion to help Kent with their council curfews Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
East End Fan Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I think that it's brilliant that two local rivals should be friendly enough to help out with a change of race day like this. Speedway needs more such co-operation....well done to the Eastie management. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moleman27 Posted January 31, 2018 Report Share Posted January 31, 2018 I thought this would be why when I originally saw the race days first announced as we had first leg but was always to late for return at Kent as wouldnt be able to start intill too late.

East End Fan Posted February 4, 2018 Report Share Posted February 4, 2018 Eastbourne's fixture list sounds impressive and as a Hammers fan with a strong liking of the National League, I can see myself making quite a few visits to Arlington as well as Sittingbourne for the Kings matches this year. I will be particularly interested in watching the progress of Brooks and Edwards ( great prospect this one) for Eastie and Clouting and Spooner for Kent. Between these two teams, the 4 riders I've mentioned hold the key to success or failure IMO. Fascinating. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted February 8, 2018 Report Share Posted February 8, 2018 Has Charlie Brooks ridden any Speedway before this season? Or just got grasstrack experience? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted February 9, 2018 Report Share Posted February 9, 2018 I believe so I think he rides at the poultry scheme, and listening to the speedway podcast featuring David Mason and Connor Dugard the Eastbourne team are heading to March this month for practice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

szkocjasid Posted February 12, 2018 Report Share Posted February 12, 2018 Gotta say, even without Jake Knight I reckon Eastbourne have a great number 1 in Mark Baseby! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TurnTwo Posted February 16, 2018 Report Share Posted February 16, 2018 Agree completely he was piling in the points before his injury Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woofers Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 Given that Eastbourne have an IT sponsor, the official website is a bit behind the times. No 2018 Fixtures list yet !! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chris116 Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 BSPA site has mention of the opening meeting being:- 24/03/18 1930 Eastbourne Forman IT Eagles v IT First Eagles (Ch) but nothing on the Eastbourne site to say what the match is when it is only 31 days away. Not very impressive. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

gee jay Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 that wasn't very well publicised either Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woofers Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 (edited) Well thank you for that. i hope they can handle IT solutions better than this in 'real business' No communication, no link from or notification on the old site (which still carries the label 'officIal website') and is still being updated with Twitter feeds from the management. Try Googling Eastbourne Speedway or Eastbourne Speedway Fixtures - no sight of the new website in the search answers. Not a good start.

Moleman27 Posted February 21, 2018 Report Share Posted February 21, 2018 The new website is still under construction, and it was link and announced when the new colours was announced. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
