What about Northampton?
DaveWayne replied to RoundTheBoards's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
I doubt Sunday would be an option with stock cars and bangers running regular Sunday meetings throughout the year. As they also run some Saturday nights on other weekends, there wouldn't be enough time to prep the track for those Sundays either. -

We will have to agree to disagree.If Doyle was going for another world title he might have viewed last nights meeting differently we will never know .By the way Doyle should get a wild card anyway in my opinion. -
Not sure... BV did when the track opened, and it was a key part of the business plan that they submitted to the council... We always use the food wagon on Kirky Lane so don't know if its still "in house" or now just paying concessions...

The stock cars and bangers are always well supported at Foxhall and the speed weekend and the bonfire bonanza are sell outs and have the stadia packed with crowds that speedway can only dream of these days. Speedway and Spedeworth seem to get on well. In both sports the participants are approachable and many a banger driver or stock car driver is happy to talk with kids and let them look over the cars. Speedway riders are also generally good value when meeting Joe public and that is a credit to them. Apart from entry fees and who gets what from the catering etc is probably the main difference when looking at revenue streams. However the banger meetings are well oiled events and last a lot longer than a speedway meeting so followers probably feel it is better value from an entertainment perspective. I am happy to watch both.

Does BV speedway club get the bar and restaurant takings or is it the council ?

Yes agreed, I meant more backing the project rather than running it per se. I wouldn't try and open Northampton whilst Brandon is still up in the air A large proportion of expected fans would surely come from Coventry way? -
