I noticed that was shut and fencing round it last year on my way to Silverstone. Shame to see the place closed as always looked busy and always loads of bikers outside when I used to go past.

By the time it is done it will be Charlie's Jubilee

Always the same every year run the final in October instead of August/early September when got more chance of better weather

I remember bit back in the SS there was news about Southampton but that has gone quiet?

Well not a massive surprise Suzy Perry she has that many notches on her bed post it looks like it has been attacked by woodworm

The media do not know Speedway but if a rider is caught drink driving, drugs etc they soon find out about it

Maybe KL cannot get any guests cause all available riders are in Busters black book

Chase The Ace might get the wildcard for Cardiff

One thing certain of when it comes to the AGM they will say this is a crucial/important one.... again

Reading the link and Buster is asking for silly money for someone to take it over just sounds like Horton when he tried to sell the Bees for stupid money even after they were kicked out of Brandon!

Maybe if Rye House comeback in 2024 he might get a spot in there side (depending which league they ride in)

I am surprised the French Open Tennis is on Eurosport as thought this might have been picked up by Amazon Prime or some other streaming service (if it is not already) though maybe Tennis has noticed putting the sport behind a pay wall suddenly the figures go down

Looking on Virgin Media due to Le Mans and the French Open Tennis it looks like this round will be live on Discovery +

Maybe if some teams are looking at NORA it might shock (or give them the kick of the ****) to finally sort out the sport in the UK but I very much doubt it and heads will remain buried in the sand

I might be wrong but I think it was Chris Simpson as he also did the presenting for Cov Storm (which I preferred to the out dated Peter York)

Just seen this on the BBC site about the greyhound stadium https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/articles/c515wjjn2dwo

Mine was not delivered last week and emailed Speedway Star and they it came on the Saturday in the Royal Mail It has not been delivered today either but will wait till tomorrow just incase as it is usually delivered early in the morning as it is not through Royal Mail but some other delivery firm round here. They are usually good as get my Rugby Paper with them on a Sunday.

I did see this a couple of months back on the local news. Sad to see another motorsport venue could be going

Sorry Sam I forgot who is riding in what colour....

First TV meeting of the season and not a great one to start off with. I thought they would start with Peterborough as defending champs. For the presentation Kiri was good at the top of the show. Kelv was still understandably emotional at the start talking about Nige and will no doubt be feeling it for a while as they were very close friends. Kelv did a good job under the circumstances and Jason was good on the same lines of Louis. Not sure if Jason will carry on for the rest of the season or if they will have a guest co-host with Kelv from week to week? Not sure why Sam was there, never really been a fan of him behind the mic and just rambling on and not giving much of an opinion. Dave Rowe would be a good addition but like said stick a camera on him and he does get a little shaky but he is a good stats man and knows his stuff.

Anyway back to the GP and I thought it was a great start on Eurosport. Kelv did a great job and understandably emotional without Nige. Chris was not bad and I think if they stay together they will build a good relationship on the comms. Scotty in the pits was not bad though expected Dave Rowe to be somewhere in the team. Great racing expected a bore fest but credit to the track staff as Gorican served up some great racing. Bartosz is going to be tough to beat this year I fear but it is a long season so lets see what happens. Roll on Warsaw!!

Saw Midlands Today mentioned Nige on the news and also a piece is on the BBC website https://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-england-birmingham-61126833

Totally shocked at this news, I saw the website and thought maybe the statement was about maybe not commentating or slowly moving away. This was the last thing and still do not believe it. RIP Nige

I remember little bit back in the star they said Southampton was looking to comeback but not heard anything since?

Good luck Rob and the rest of the team and hope to see Rye House back on track soon
