AGM news thread for 2025


Recommended Posts

Answering the original question.....

Extremely disappointing.

No news at all about the reopening of Swindon,Coventry, Wolverhampton, Arena Essex(Lakeside), Rye House. No news on wheher Eastbourne will be allowed to race at Iwade. 

Pretty much a year of the "status quo" with some statistical attendance gains around the online audiences.  I guess in British Speedway terms that is a success rather than another club closing. Maybe that's the way forward, like the dog tracks that just run meetings for the online audiences ?

The gimmick of  Poole entering the premiership kockup will be a laugh, especially if, with their cherry picked gusts, they make it to the next rounds. Their "select" team will challenge the rule book on "cup tied" riders.  The thought of "Poole" riders racing for the opposition in the kockup might lead to a conflict of interests. If Matt has a big enough chequebook he could win the kockup at the first attempt ?

Why would there be any news about those inactive clubs ?

This was the Premier AGM. None of those were ever going to be entering that competition in 2025

After DJ Woffy's lucrative testimonial at Wroclaw last year you have to wonder whether it'll be worth his while staging one in this country.

Nothing shown in the Sheffield fixture list

Wouldn’t be surprised if it ends up being Sunday 15th June or Sunday 17th August if he’s wanting to get a field with GP riders in there 

Hope so, it'll be nice to possibly see a decent line up at Sheffield
