Coventry_Bee 467 Posted August 26, 2017 http://www.savecoventryspeedway.com/news.php?extend.85 New date for Leicester meeting, Sunday 17th Sept @2PM Would be great to have Bomber and Scott line up for the Bees. 10 years on since the treble and both good round the Leicester track.

Gemini 4,894 Posted August 27, 2017 New date for Leicester meeting, Sunday 17th Sept @2PM This will be followed by the British Youth Championship that was previously abandoned so what is going to happen about parking being as there is a 4 hour limit? Presumably the admission will be higher to cover both meetings but fans might not be able to watch much of the second one. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
iainb 4,993 Posted September 4, 2017 So Poole have signed Kacper Woryna on a full transfer from Cov... I think this tells you all you need to know about how hard Mick Horton is trying to get the Bees back on track Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can be sure that if anything positive happens for the bees his head will appear above the parapet once again................Unfortunately. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Neil, as this is the only news about Coventry in recent weeks/months (and not from the Coventry club) what else are fans to think? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
STEVEHOLS54 380 Posted September 4, 2017 Neil, as this is the only news about Coventry in recent weeks/months (and not from the Coventry club) what else are fans to think? Much as I would love to see Coventry back in Speedway, do we really want to see it back at the wasteland that is what is there now ?? Speedway is already struggling without major investment with clubs even with half decent stadiums struggling to stay afloat. Lets cherish the memories of this once great club as it was. there has been too much happen imo for it to come back unless another stadium could e provided or some major investment in this. The players involved couldn't even get that right so what chance. Coventry at some stage will be redeveloped imo. Do we really want to see some half hearted attempt to race there again with a patched up (even then needing major investment) stadium. Would love to be proved wrong but if British Speedway is already way down what chance Coventry :-( Sorry to all Coventry supporters but just a view from someone who remembers the good days from my home track of Hackney in my first meeting in 1970 when we welcomed such a good team and have fond memories of their riders. They were a team to be feared for many years. So sad they way it went downhill in recent years :-( 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted September 4, 2017 Unfortunately I agree and am now resigned to there being no future for the Bees but hoping to be proved wrong. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He was good at home but mainly poor away. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
