looks like the bet of the season so far Interesting to see tonight's match Swindon v Ipswich and H2H on Bet 365 go D Lampart +4 @ 8/11 against K Piezczek -4 @ 6/4 Betsafe go D Lampart scratch 1.72 and K Piezczek Scratch 1.96 Quite a good example of abritage Cannot find any other bookmakers betting on tonight's speedway other than these two

Almost looks like a top of the table clash

The world championship today is a closed shop and only so many riders can take part in it Possibly about 40. Going back to the early 1950's it was open to all riders which is not the case today.I remember one year there was 243 entries and that was in the UK alone. Under today's system a rider like Jack Young who was a 2nd division rider became world champion and under today's system would not be allowed entry It.s a shame that the GP riders today are being paid a pittance for the skills and any profits earnt from the GP's does not come back to the grass roots of Speedway. I wonder who sold Speedway down the drain

Hans Anderson +2 over Scott Nicholls at Evens

What a silly comment Don't go horse racing on the flat then . with 6 races it will seem like 15 minutes is a marathon

I wonder which today are the stadiums which have the biggest capacity. I would think Ipswich would be the biggest and perhaps the only one that could take over 10,000 punters.

In his book Harry Findlay said he paid 1.5m for the lease to run greyhounds there and lost the lost. He also said he could have bought Brandon Stadium at the same time for £2m

The Ochiltree's also sold Leicester speedway for development previously

I was there that night. Certainly had the crowd on their feet

Look up Mike Parker then I think at one time he was involved with 13 clubs and without him there would probably be no speedway in this country today

They are not landlords at Foxhall Stadium they have a lease there Foxhall Stadium is owned by Ipswich Speedway Limited

Quite an easy answer to that which is a Speedway meeting is much, much dearer to put on the a stock car meeting.

I think you might find they are going to build 604 dwellings there as well and without that there would be no sports stadium

You are indeed correct it was Lea Bridge It had Colin Watson and Ron Johnson in it
