    Buxton vs Kent

    Hopefully the will fit the Coventry fixture in somewhere too!

    Stoke v Brummies NL Sat 1st Sep

    Don't forget Coventry have to face Buxton home and away in the League yet. Get them meetings arranged (and win them) plus win both home meetings in the double header this Sunday (Birmingham and Stoke) Coventry can take over Kent let alone Birmingham.
  3. Coventry 1. Mountain 2. Phillips 3. Ruddick 4. Halder 5. Armstrong 6. MacDonald 7. Harris Plymouth 1. Perks 2. Terry-Daley 3. Webster R/R 4. Andrews 5. Atkins 6. Sheppard 7. Dugard Should be comfortable enough for the Bees in this one and keep their play off hopes alive.

    Brummies v Coventry NL Wed 29th Aug

    Would a play off meeting get a bigger crowd? Not sure he would be running double headers if that was his mindset.

    Brummies v Coventry NL Wed 29th Aug

    Was fairly confident we could get close but was not convinced we could actually win it. Walker injury was obviously key. Just hope we can get our fixtures in because we have a chance of making those play offs.

    Brummies v Coventry NL Wed 29th Aug

    Highlighted this earlier in the season, he often changes the line up after looking at the opposition.

    Brummies v Coventry NL Wed 29th Aug

    I think this will be fairly close and hopefully Bees can take at least a league point.
  8. Unfortunately the forecast put me off travelling from Coventry up to Manchester. However we will be going to Wolves for the return meeting, my first premiership meeting of the season!

    Buxton V Coventry 18/8

    We have about 4 meetings to fit in. Will need double headers for sure.
  10. Just a heads up that the meeting will now run on the 30th as the NL cut off point is on the 23rd which was the the original date.

    Buxton V Coventry 18/8

    Unfortunately not, i have no way of getting there this weekend. Still think its Bees to lose, Harris should score very well at reserve.
  12. Very frustrating. No meeting in 6 weeks and the next one scheduled is 3 weeks away!
  13. Both sides will be at full strength for the two weekend meetings.
  14. This has come out of a pot of money thats not come from the taxpayer. If you listen to last night's interview it was said Belle Vue didn't not ask for this money and what is being put in place also helps the other sports in the area and I think it should ve been in place when it was first built. Once the council accepted these new owners then they must give them a decent amount of time to turn it around, you cant do that in 18 months. I would however say that the stadium needs to utilised more especially with the pitch in the middle, there is no point having it if it's not in constant use.
  15. Should be a comfortable home win but can see Andersen and Nicholls scoring well which might keep it closer than some expect.
  16. I believe it is. They can do some track work once the meeting finishes and get a load of water down later than if it was 3pm. There seemed to be an issue about the later start time for some reason and there were doubts about the meeting going ahead but Coventry confirms it will be on and at 6pm.
  17. No reason given but I doubt it was Coventrys choice to change the time.
  18. Hopefully next year there will be a few more up and down the country. Can't make this one but it's certainly a step in the right direction.
  19. I know it's only NL but Connor Mountain got a 15pt maximum for Coventry at Monmore Green earlier in the season. Will be tough but it would not surprise me if he manages a few points.

    Coventry Bees Nl ?

    Pretty much the same for us I think. He has improved his average by a point so he's doing his job for us.

    Coventry Bees Nl ?

    I guess postponing two fixtures gets people thinking and putting their theories online but the two postponments have been explained, one was so Leicester could prepare of the televised meeting and the 2nd is the same time as the World Cup Final. I'd be worried if they next one is postponed unless of weather.

    Coventry Bees Nl ?

    I'm glad you've responded about the campaign and clarified the group's position on Bees at Leicester. You shouldn't have to defend yourself. Keep it going Jeff, Dave and all.

    Coventry Bees Nl ?

    Simply because if we had a track in Coventry we'd still be Coventry Bees. I don't see why if we race elsewhere temporarily we should change our name. The move to Leicester is a short term move not full time. If it was full time then that's a different situation. The Save Coventry Speedway group number one priority is saving the stadium and if not ensure another site is put in its place. We need a stadium in or close to Coventry, otherwise (long term) we won't have a club anyway. It would be nice if the promotion and group were on the same page so we could have a half successful NL club while fighting for the stadium but that won't happen. Also just to be aware that there is likely to be added protection on the stadium as advised by the government planning officer overseeing the local plan.

    Coventry Bees Nl ?

    Of course its Coventry Bees. It's not where we want to be (League and track) and its far from ideal but for me I'll follow the team through thick and thin. If other don't want to call the club Coventry Bees anymore that's upto them but I cannot agree with that. The track day on Saturday has also called off to allow sky set up for Monday's meeting. Bees v Buxton the following Sunday also call off as the World Cup Final is at 4pm the same day.

    Coventry Bees Nl ?

    Unfortunately this is what happens when you don't own your own stadium. The 4s wasn't a Bees promotion meeting was it? Electrical work was the reason for the Buxton call off but no idea about this Sunday? Maybe the Monday tv fixture had something to do with it?
