RebelDan 203 Posted November 14, 2018 Not too fussed about us dropping down, the racing wasn’t any better in the top league. I hope we revert back to Friday’s it’s not been the same on a Weds - it’s not as if many away fans will be visting considering most tracks are up North!

JamieE 123 Posted November 14, 2018 Gutted to see Somerset drop out of the top flight after your rise (almost) to the very top of British speedway! So glad I made the after work dash from Warwickshire to see the KO cup final this season as my first ever visit to Somerset, with the likes of Doyle, Iversen, Harris and Lambert (not forgetting your home track hero Wrighty) in action at the OTA. As a Coventry fan in exile, the above meeting provided the perfect end to my season of travelling around the tracks. Just surprised to see this move has been taken, based on the feel good factor I picked up on my visit. I wish you luck in the Championship and look forward to visiting again, maybe the Championship Fours one day! 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe, but this is a stellar change and maybe a brief acknowledgement would have been a good idea to clarify. I thought it was a mistake !

Huge 'feel good factor' at Oak Tree Arena for most of this year (at least, once they got the track sorted out) and I hope that, whatever league they are in, this continues. Like Jamie, I am an exiled Bees fan, just moved to Somerset and the club has certainly rekindled my passion for speedway. A lot of that is down to the racers in the team and especially Charles Wright. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
