Dickie Head Posted March 8, 2019 Report Share Posted March 8, 2019 I’ve just seen on Facebook and now in the Speedway Star about Stewart Kellie stepping down as co-promoter as he can’t commit to Friday nights. He’s only been there for a season or so and I thought I had read he was doing a good job generating new blood. Anyway good luck to the bloke and it opens the door for Matt Bates to pick up the roll. And in other Devon news, Speedway Star are also reporting a fall out between Alan Spencer and Robert Doran about the MSDL team which will see the Exeter name dropped in favour of Plymouth Cobras. Lots going on way out west. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
rocket007 Posted April 23, 2019 Report Share Posted April 23, 2019 can anyone tell me if there is a new Plymouth Gladiators metal Badge for this season. There is nothing on their website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
oleoleole Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 Down in Devon. Hoping to go tonight to see the Thompson Twins debut but weather looking very dodgy for later. Plymouth's website very underwhelming with mixed messages about Gladiators & Devils and no mention of tonight's meeting. Apologies if I'm missing something but not very impressive or informative.

847084 Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 Perfectly dry and bright weather all day here. Forecast was for good weather. I don't know where this 'adverse' weather is. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

oleoleole Posted May 10, 2019 Report Share Posted May 10, 2019 I realise it is possible that it could be raining 15 miles away in Plymouth but it's been dry here all day. In fact very warm and sunny and still no rain at 10:30pm. This morning the BBC forecast a band of rain coming in about 6pm. It hasn't happened. Very difficult for all concerned when the forecasts cannot be relied upon. Dissapointed to not have been able to add Plymouth to our list of tracks visited.

Falcons50 Posted May 11, 2019 Report Share Posted May 11, 2019 Difficult decision for the promoters with several different forecasts for the evening. Being so far "out on a limb" and running on a Friday night with all the visitors who use the road down I can totally understand the reasons for an early "call off". Dammed if you do and dammed if you don't. The season just hasn't got going but we've still managed three fairly bad injuries. Using R?R isn't going to cut it, we did that for long periods last year. It brings a lot of disappointment to the supporters. Now we hear that Nathan Stoneman has signed for Birmingham as well and that they will have first call on him, at least 3 meetings with a clash. No blame on him, he's been our most exciting rider in both the one home and the away meetings and he has to earn a living but that the rules allow it is not great for the supporters who pay their money at the gate. The control board is killing speedway with the rules they bring in. I love my speedway, I love the track at Plymouth, dust and all, some of the racing is fantastic. I watch the GP's on BT Sport and sometimes give up because it's just a procession even at that level, also the top league fixtures they show at the tail end of the season, boring, I don't know any of the answers. I do know some new blood needs to come into the control board though with some new ideas before it's too late. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was about half an hours drive north of Plymouth on Friday and we had torrential rain most of the afternoon and early evening. I think the Plymouth promotion made the right call as the name for the area (Marsh Mills) suggest that it doesn't drain very well. It makes no sense to take a chance and lose money - in fact early call offs seem to be quite common so far this season.. Having said that I was looking forward to seeing the Thompson twins in action!

Widespread complaints by supporters throughout the league Last winter - NL changes the rules restricting guests for 'any reason' to under 18s. Supporters respond positively Last night - new rule applies, fans start whinging. This is a typical case of fans wanting fairer rules until they apply to their club. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
