Honestly

Bad news I'm afraid... No Speedway at Brough this season... its been taken out of the promotions hands...

The dogs don't want to risk (or jeopardise) the bags meetings because if there is a Covid outbreak the place will be locked down for two weeks...

So that's all folks... Roll on 2021 and hopefully a vaccine for this Covid carry on and back to some sort of normal and not this new normal hydraulics...

Sorry to be the bearer of bad news

Oh and just as a PS edit... Birmingham could be in the same situation because they have the same landlord...

Isnt Covid a risk when the dogs are running?

Don't think so when the stadium is empty... then if the handlers and trap loaders socially distance the risk is further limited...

Honestly think all dog tracks will be looking at the various risks... lots of money generated from gambling... much less from Speedway I would suggest...

Trouble is,,, how long will this be around?,,,, The 'science guys' reckon it'll be around for some time to come, maybe even years. Even if it goes away, am sure there'll be another one in the pipeline/around the corner. :(

A don't think ya wrong Ruff they might never get a vaccine and then we are waiting for it to burn itself out which as you state could take years... 

We ain't in a good place and these world governments need to start sorting themselves out starting with the Chinese one educating their own people with regard to wild animal markets and using various parts of other animals for medicine... it's the 21st century FFS a Tigers Todger ground up and taken as an aphrodisiac a mean to say... they can get Viagra over there why butcher a Tiger...

No need...
