Absolutely agree,he will cash in and try to sell his rider assets. Unless he can find another track to make home, Wimborne Road isn't the only option imo.

If it gets to that point i think the council will see a hell of a lot of fan resistance , not that it will make a lot of diference. As for altunative location, any suggestions ?

Worrying state of affairs for British speedway, in reality should've been looking to move away from traditional shared venues years ago Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Zach didn't miss any away meetings for us at Plymouth last season, but the rule may have changed for this season? @racers and royals or @Skidder1 prob know for sure.

I should imagine that as the Poles run a squad system for the U 24 league. Scheduled GB fixtures would take preference- not so sure about re- arranged ones though. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ask Plymouth. The Polish U24 league operates a squad system so its possible to work around any fixture clashes. ps. Sorry RandR you got there before me.

We used to have a speedway track and moderately successful team back in the day! We have supported and travelled to Poole every season for over 40 years, so why would it be such an issue should Poole relocate? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
