JamieE 110 Posted May 31, 2007 It seems to have gone very quiet on the search for a new home of the Trelawny Tigers, i was just wandering if there were any updates on their progress, It's such a shame that they don't exist anymore, after bringing on riders such as Bomber Harris and Matej Zagar too Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Richspeedway 231 Posted May 31, 2007 Not sure about Trelawny coming back but Exeter will be soon so least Devon/Cornwall area will have another team to cheer on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

speedyguy 20 Posted May 31, 2007 the impetus has been lost in the search for a new home for trelawney tigers no one is interested any more ,dont think their will ever be another speedway team in cornwall <{POST_SNAPBACK}> This is something that, as a Wimbledon follower, I sincerely hope will not happen to the Dons. There is talk opf a search for a venue 15 miles from Plough Lane, but that was weeks ago and, as with Trelawney all seems to have gone cold lately. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whilst I cannot say too much, people have not given up hope of bringing speedway back to Cornwall. Sometimes keeping it quiet is the best policy, firstly not to build anyones hopes up and secondly so that the anti speedway brigade are thrown off of their tracks. But please dont think that nobody is interested, dont give up hope! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Planning permission would be very difficult to obtain at the football club with the nearby residential property, but there are other places not too far away!

25yearfan 381 Posted June 1, 2007 (edited) When they reoopened in 1997 after 35 odd years of inactivity it was a complete surprise, not a place anyone would of predicted a speedway comeback and a great well supported success! I'm sure it would do well again so don't give up hope! The best way to go about reopening a speedway track is to do it quietly so as not to alert the NIMBY's and build up false hopes. What happened with the proposed track near St Austell at Par Moor I believe was the name? Edited June 1, 2007 by 25yearfan Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
