IainB Posted July 11, 2022 Report Share Posted July 11, 2022 perhaps it's as well as the summer trophy as there doesn't seem to be any Speedway between the Beginning of August until the end of October... will her maj be presenting the trophy? 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HGould Posted July 12, 2022 Report Share Posted July 12, 2022 Apparently they have Nadine Dorres lined up as Minister for Culture and Sport to present the Prizes on Finals Day. She'll no doubt recall buying a Car off Danny Ford, seeing Mark Phillips ride at Badminton Horse Trials, thank John Campbell for his Soups, and praise Mr (Damian) Bates and Mr Dickson for being in many of her saucy novels.....oh not forgetting the picture of Barry Sheene that she had in her bedroom as a teenager. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scunthorpe have had plenty of blank Fridays, so don't know what the 2nd leg hasn't been raced yet. Perhaps Scunthorpe know they will get knocked out by Leicester & won't make the play-offs, so are wanting to hold this meeting later on to make their season last longer? I can just picture it now though, lots of blank days during the season & finals still raced at the end of October! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
