Taken off Facebook:

Would you be interested in joining the Newcastle Speedway Supporters Association?

Our Ethos

Is to raise funds to help support the continuation of speedway at Brough Park and help build a wider fan base to support the future of the club. The Supporters Association will be ran independently but in conjunction with the promotion to help sustain the future of Newcastle Speedway.

Our Aim

Is to have a working voluntary committee who will be democratically elected by its members at the Annual General Meeting (AGM). The Committee will work alongside the promotion to deliver the ethos and aims of the association. Funds raised by the Supporters Associations; Last Lap Draw will go directly towards the upkeep/ running costs of Newcastle Speedway. The remainder of the funds will go towards community based initiatives and ring fenced for social events. Newcastle Speedway will be able to request additional funds from the NSSA on an adhoc basis at the discretion of the committee.

Annual Memberships

Annual membership to the Supporters Association will be available to purchase following our formal launch event with options for adult, children, and family memberships. If members sign up on our launch night they will be entered into our very first free monthly prize draw exclusively for members of the Supporters Association.

A gig? In Workington? Who?  Where - one of the clubs?

Roy looks like a Country & Western type to me - yeehah!

As said in the post a foreigners journey  at the carnegie theatre was a sell out, must be a good  group to get groupies coming over from the east coast :D

What is there to say though? Could be in a worse situation like BV or Birmingham.

Perhaps things will 'liven up' after Friday's Meet the Riders night.

Interesting that it’s stated that Lee Complin has become aClub Asset ,who owned his previous contract,I thought it was maybe Berwick but not sure if we purchased him when he signed.

more interesting to see the size of the lad. apparently lost a lot of weight but shall we say he doesn't look to have the usual physique of a modern day rider. doesn't look like he'll get out muscled in the first corner but will he make it there at the same time as the other less rotund riders?

i imagine he was owned by a promotion who no longer exist and his 'asset status' reverted to the BSPL when any new promotion decided not to acquire the 'asset status' of a retired rider. They're still obsessed with having an asset system in place even if you have no rights over that 'asset' beyond the season long contract you have with them.
