Simple solution, get the current lease holders out, move the track out, bring the football back, that way its used all year round Can promise you if speedway were to share with football it would be a nightmare as we wouldn't be allowed on the pitch. So track would have to move quite a long way out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Yes i agree it would cause problems, it did work in the past, remember when they use to put the corners down, hopefully the track could be moved out enough soes not to have to do that 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

old bob at herne bay 828 Posted December 25, 2021 This all sounds sadly all too familiar with the Kent situation at Sittingbourne Stadium :-( New landlords with other priorities demanding large rent increases from the speedway promotion. . Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
