Andrew Bain told me today it’s Campbell who does it

Don't think he is solely involved now, as too many complaints about how good the Edinburgh fixtures were planned 🤪

If this is an indication of the way they work then I’m all for it. The way it should be really. I’m interested to see what they do with it all, how it’s promoted, how it’s presented etc. Will they add anything different to the meeting day experience? Do something different? Who knows. Also, will they add any extra meetings? Individuals, international meetings. That’s one thing Louis has done less and less of the last few years and with a sparse fixture list, adding a few extra would be most welcome.

Yep sadly that meeting killed Cardiff all be it the venue had been declining attendance wise every year since covid possibly with the large number of poles no longer traveling.

It’s John Campbell who does the fixtures

Not what i asked

I think that is spot on. Everything is in place & certain people apart from the riders like the sponsors know what the team is. They have been sworn to secrecy which unusually they are all sticking too.

Arry to busy rehearsing for his grand tour

Hope you manage to sleep well tonight iain

Lemon managed to squeeze in then.

Here she is just for you.

No threat, just naffed off and desperate if they do.

Either way I could see from the video that he has at least 3 massage pads on the top of his arm/shoulder.

Only went outside to the auto jumble briefly on Saturday between 9-10 and although it was peeing down it was packed, inside Saturday was a really good day, lot more people imo than previous years, I did ok, Sunday not so good as is usually isn’t but still did fair, spent more time catching up with my ex team mates than selling stuff and finding out what’s going on in the speedway world, I think it’s a really good social event and another missed opportunity for British speedway, on Sunday Henry cole and his two sidekicks turned up to film shed and buried, well it’s fake, they came set up a fake stall and pretended to buy something of it,filmed it, filmed them having a cup of tea then packed up stall and cameras and left .fake tossers

Well a friend of a friend spoke with someone close (very) to the situation and they said that it should be but couldnt/wouldn't confirm anything else - including the team (not that they had any input in that anyway) so perhaps,maybe, if we are lucky etc etc

Tuesday “hopefully”, an update.

Possibly…..🥴

Are we thinking Tuesday then and not Monday?

Not sure on that personally. They’ve come in late when all the best options would have been snapped up. Coupled with riders that gave up waiting and committed elsewhere in Europe instead so it’s a bit harsh to judge them on their first team announcement. Next winter you’ll get a better idea of what they’re about and how ambitious they are. They might actually have had nothing to do with building this particular team. That may have been Louis’ work.

Just 2 more sleeps until all is out in the open (Perhaps 3 if you like an afternoon nap too)

You’re correct, I remember it now (for all the wrong reasons) My mate a lapsed Speedway supporter and Ipswich fan attended with me, we had gone to Peterborough a few times as the most local track to us. I thought the day experience was poor, and after the event was crap too, this on top of that s*it show. My team is Rye House, I went to various meetings in the hope of good racing/meeting with no emotional attachment as Rye had gone. 👍🏻

When Mayfield announce the Team, It's going to be the most crucial Team announcement that they'll ever do imo because it will set the precedent for the new era.

Way more than scunny have to play with. 😂

That was the year Bewley won when it was more like a super cross track, I went to Odsal in 85 and 1990 brilliant atmospheres both times with the tribal nature needed and some superb racing but the days of getting 45-50k in for World finals in the UK also seem gone forever.

that comment was for a few people on here who because we say what we are seeing, they are classing that as hating British speedway , they have lost the plot.
