Rumours of Poole town looking at a return, could be a solution.

I wish i did.

Swindon will be looking over their shoulders as well.

I used to have them, but i flogged them. Part of my on going downsizing project.

I screenshot this from a video.

Looking at photos on Facebook, the new 'gym' seems very close to the safety fence. Maybe the new owners intend to move the track over to accommodate it.

It will be interesting to see how many tracks return after the enforced break, especially if it runs into 2021. Some stadiums might be forced to close, with next to no income.

The age of the average speedway fan will have an effect, plus financial hardship will impact upon a lot of people.

I'll take whatever's on offer, but i fear i might be in the minority.

Maybe the Swedish system is the way to go. Less could end up more. Fewer high quality meetings might entice a few fans back. Give people something to look forward to, instead of rolling out the same tired product on a regular basis.

Speedway is very much a social thing for me. It's a totally different experience when i go to football, where the result means everything. I am missing a night out at my local tracks, for a chat with my mates and a couple of decent races, if I'm lucky.

I'd be content with the odd amateur meeting. I have three training tracks that are relatively close to where i live.

And me.

It stalled all our progress, for some permanently.

From memory Steve, it was a nice sunny sunday afternoon!
