Shame that Mick Horton's Fengate motorsports complex (remember the ET splash and plans) never got off the ground, we wouldn't be having this conversation. Didn't they originally look at the old spedeworth stock car track at Wisbeach Edited September 21, 2019 by scoobydoo Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And the beauty of course is that several lads who appeared in the final will, (quite possibly due to the late staging) guest for either team in the qualifier of a competition that they had already competed in the final of for somebody else.. Or something like that. . Edited September 22, 2019 by mikebv Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

IronScorpion 1,407 Posted September 22, 2019 ALL outstanding meetings should be arranged before any play off meetings. It means some riders are hanging around for probably 3 weeks to a month & not riding. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
wealdstone 3,454 Posted September 26, 2019 I sincerely hope that the mistakes made from which they have learned from do not result in the demise of Premier League Speedway at Peterborough. Some may feel "mistake" is a euphemism for deliberate act for which fans will pay the price. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
