Don't get to vote at BSPA meeting for 2/3 years 2. Won't get priority over other Sunday tracks Newcastle should not get a vote for three years . The Stoke promoter was in the NL , that won't count for Championship issues but then who knows what they will allow these days as your not supposed to be a promoter at more than one track , but that one got overlooked if your on the committee! . Newcastle are the only Sunday track in the division. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Crabba59 156 Posted February 26, 2020 Have the bspa not changed the vote, now think you can vote after one year? Also they will still get priority over the rest of the league on Sunday's. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Whilst we all know the rules are being bent you will not find their names listed at more than one track. The ' offenders' have put puppets in the title roles. ones that spring to mind are Chapman, not listed as promoter at either Ipswich or Peterbrough is he? but as the co/ owner ? The Bates put Machin in at Leicester, and Dickson, whilst they covered Sheffield. CVS , promoter at Wolves and a shareholder at Redcar, not a promoter. Are there others ?

That was a typo by me! I missed one crucial word. What I meant to say was there was there are no promoters licensed at more than one track. CVS was shown as such more than 10 years ago, but that was changed. There is a rule, however that an individual who is a director and or a shareholder at more than one track, they still are liable for the activities of the all three businesses they are involved with Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BSPA website (not for the first time!!) is incorrect. As you say 5pm start with gates open at 3pm. Adults £10, OAP/Students £5, Kiddie Winks FREE. You can also purchase VIP Hospitality for £30. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The new one is Newcastle-Speedway.co.uk I used the link from the BSPA site but I suspect they still have a link to the old site! I will try a Google search for the new one. EDIT:- The new site works well, just a shame the BSPA are behind the times for not the first time. It would be even better if they could publish the correct start time for meetings! Good luck to Rob and everyone at Newcastle Speedway in 2020. Edited February 27, 2020 by Chris116 Added extra details. 3 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
