Not a good idea to have Cook and Lindgren too close together.

After Cook's OTT reaction, you're right.

No, I'm in Scotchland.

 

I realise it's grim up North but I can guarantee you Manchester has it's own international airport.

 

It has an international Airport, which is about 15 miles South of the city. Driving to the airport from the South is fine, beyond that it all turns awful.

The airport is 8 miles from the centre of Manchester, it's one road all the way, a dual carriageway that becomes a motorway for the last 3 miles or so. 25 minutes drive in traffic.

Driving to it from the south invariably means using the M6/M56 but there are alternatives, A34 for example.

Was "Belle Due" A deliberate mistake?

The profit and loss of speedway clubs including Belle Vue will absolutely shock you.

The profit and loss of speedway clubs including Belle Vue will absolutely shock you.

In what way? The size of loss or that they make a profit?

It surely depends on which set of accounts you are shown?! ;-)

 

Not forgetting what type/size of car the promoter drives!

Oh I agree, no chance of it happening but he would be outstanding round there yes. It's his sort of track really. Edited October 7, 2016 by Perton Wolf

This question is do both Worrall's come in on half their converted PL average as both have spent time in the reserve berth or just Steve because he was the EDR?

My point is:

 

A top rider rides in Poland. Flies into Manchester airport, Rides at Belle Vue. Flies back. This guy ain't driving down South.

The losses that clubs are making

BV isn't the only team with such major transport links though, Birmingham Airport is not far from Wolverhampton.

 

The whole airport distance/convenience debate doesn't seem to have made much difference in top riders considering if they want to ride in the UK anyway.
