mikebv Posted December 30, 2021 Report Share Posted December 30, 2021 A multi million pound indoor leisure facility planned? Sounds promising... A Speedway track with a roof, just what is needed... Maybe they will base it on the one Bradford had planned?.. "The Superdome" wasnt it? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suggest you ask Scottish speedway fans who they would have been rooting for if it was England, not Team GB. I suspect I know the answer. They are educated enough to realise the massive difference.

wealdstone Posted January 1, 2022 Report Share Posted January 1, 2022 (edited) The Scots like most Gaelic nations would do anything to get one over England. They forget that it was England that was landed with a Scottish King not the other way round. Myself as half Irish have always thought of the UK as one entity and have never understood the reluctance of Scotland, Ireland and Wales not to do the same. I will support England in sporting events etc but also hope the other members of the UK do well, Edited January 1, 2022 by wealdstone Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The SON winners are indeed Great Britain. Even if they were Team GB, the winners would still be Great Britain - same as Olympic winners. The British Olympic Association actually has Team GB as a commercial trademarked name - that might be why the speedway equivalent is now known as the GB Speedway Team: https://gbspeedwayteam.com/ Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
