  The three callouts by Barry in the box for the owner of a motorcycle, turned out not to be an attendee at the Speedway. It was apparently stolen, driven to the field behind the backstraight and torched by some local lowlife. For first timers at the speedway, this is not the usual interval attraction during a meeting. 

It's rarely anywhere near as exciting as a cloud of black smoke.

Only three callouts?,,, most of the folk a was with thought it had been stolen from the carpark, some even knew whose bike it was. A suggest that because of the callouts going on for most of the meeting that, maybe it wasn't stolen from the carpark afterall.  ;)

IMPORTANT FIXTURE NEWS

Due to stadium requests and staffing issues, we are now moving the SGB Championship fixture against Edinburgh Monarchs Speedway from Sunday 5th September to the week after on Sunday 12th.

We appreciate that this is also the date of the Great North Run, so bearing this is mind we are moving the start time back to a 6.30 pm tapes-up, to allow for logistics around the city centre.

Tickets for this fixture will be on sale from 1pm today via the following link

https://www.trybooking.co.uk/BFMC

As a result of this fixture change, we are also having to now move the fixture against Official Birmingham Speedway to Sunday 19th September. This will also be at a tapes up time of 6.30pm.

Will the Eastbourne fixture take place next weekend either? I would assume not given the state of Eastbourne's club right now... So there's gonna be a 2 week gap in fixtures

FURTHER IMPORTANT FIXTURE INFORMATION

The home SGB Championship meeting due to take place on Sunday 29th August versus Eastbourne Eagles has now been POSTPONED until later in the season.

This is to allow the Eagles the time they need to sort out the advertised issues that are ongoing at the club at the present time.

We sincerely hope to have a re-staged fixture date announced very soon and from everyone here at Newcastle, we send all our best wishes to the promotion, team and supporters of Eastbourne

Really hope Eastbourne can pull through, their first home fixture, if there is ever another, and if I can attend, no work commitments etc, I'm going straight down, the support people from all over the country showed the Diamonds for the double header last week was amazing and now it's time to repay the compliment for a fellow team in struggles :( I sincerely hope Eastbourne pull through as they're an amazing club, with a full British line up!!
