Firstly that wasn't the point you responded too, it was a post about belle vues luck over the season which as been shocking. Secondly Worrall is back but he's far from full fitness and won't be until next season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

He could have been replaced though with a in form rider. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
g13webb 4,254 Posted September 19, 2018 So envious of the Belle Vue fans being able to watch speedway on the NSS super raceway, this would help off set most of the bad luck you've had this year. I am amazed the attendance figures aren't more encouraging. Having been fortunate to race there twice already this season, I feel confident the Stars will compete for every point and the end result should be close. Would obviously like to win, but a close lost will do just fine..... If Bewley had been riding the task would be much greater.... Do hope he is progressing well, he is such an awesome talent to have missing..... 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

You can eat in the Diamond Lodge Hotel - just up Kirky Lane from the stadium. I think they start serving about 5.30pm. Big helpings and reasonable prices. Or else, If you’re coming along Hyde Road from the motorway, there’s a Subway beside the Tesco on the right hand side and just afterwards, a KFC, again on the right.

You can eat in the stadium in the Peter Craven Suite before the meeting which is nice, or there is a KFC just down the road, not much else apart from the famous curry mile 1 mile away.

A great year for the Aces winning the league in the last race of the last meeting of the season and made all the more enjoyable because it was away at Wolves. Bobby Ott, brilliant performance. A great year for being lucky certainly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
