Hello Singy me old pal... how you doing in these Covid impacted times... hope you are well and all the family are good too... now Shielding has been lifted I hope your not doing to much socialising as it's still not fully safe yet... but we will get there. On your question and mine for that matter on the NSSG... well I doubt I will get an answer on here however after doing some digging I found out the craic... The NSSG is run by a young lady and I will withhold her name to be poite and the handle NSSG refers "I believe" to the group she updates on Facebook that has over 1500 followers... and where she keeps the more modern "Facebook set" up to date with the latest happenings at the club... Apparently she does a lot of hard work promoting the club on Facebook and other forms of electronic media and works on the commercial interests of the club... so kudos there on what she is trying to do as it's a thankless task... So the group is an electronic one rather than a physical one run like a fan club... and I will stand corrected if I am wrong... There were one or two other things raised re: the NSSG... but out of deference I will keep my own council on those... It may be more helpful if she chose a different name or used a different non de plume on the Forum as it can get confusing and some comments can be misconstrued in there context in; or to; a response... (if that makes sense) Never mind a might start me own supporters trust over here... have to see what happens or what the interest is like... but I won't be on that Facebook thing any time soon... Finally I definitely miss my Saturday nights at Derwent Park.. an I even had a "toby" around Northside on Saturday just to see what it was lookin like but there was nothing on unfortunately and the place was locked up... Never mind singy one day maybe and hopefully soon we might see a Comet fly high again... Regards THJ 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So It is good then that you have such folk interested in keeping speedway alive and kicking over on the East coast.(I've seen pics on Facebook) However despite your nice closing comments THJ I just can't see us over here in the West ever again having the need for such similar input. You say you had a peek at Northside....well apart from it being a laal track, of the right shape, nothing else inspires my hopes of a Comets revival right there....it's too small and spartan. Anyway good luck to the Diamonds from 2021 onwards......I've enjoyed very many visits to Brough to support Comets and always found the fans friendly.... 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Never say never as the guy running Northside has some great ideas and even more ambition (and all the shale off DP) it wouldn't take much to lay a another track at the back of the training track and run a National League team...

andys Posted September 11, 2020 Report Share Posted September 11, 2020 Apparently he's talking to Newcastle, Gateshead and North tyneside Councils about getting land on a long term lease, he knows the financial costs of it all, and says an out of town site is preferable due to the problems with noise. Rob Godfrey is advising him on things due to the success of scunthorpe stadium. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
