Disagree, You are very much in the significant majority. Nothing beats being there.

Shame. There was some interest in Swindon but this stance impacted that.

Is it not just a challenge match so not a league race

The state of our Speedway has somewhat reflected the state of the whole country... Our Speedway used to be up there with the best... the envy of many... a magnet for the worlds top riders... but now...??? We used to have a strong, upstanding country... powerful leaders respected and admired throughout the world... an army, navy and air force that struck fear around the globe... but now...???

Normally up in the Whip Street Motors box between first and second bend, but our old box was leaking and was ripped out in the winter and replaced with a new one and the barstewards haven’t given me the keys yet so afraid I’m slumming it down with the rest of the peasants 😭😂🤪 so we’ll be down in front of the old garden bar. I’ll be the one wearing the black baseball cap 😉 Those I’m with will be bringing wives/kids so I’m the only one without anybody so would be good to have someone to talk to!

I get that Speedy, but you’re in a minority.

Correct, they have a full schedule after adding Mildenhall

More volunteers than paying spectators?

If Rushen carries on from last night, Kyle will no doubt end up at reserve with Cairns. But don’t expect double figures every match. Tougher opposition to come.

I'm hearing ARC/PGR don't want any more tracks.

Cool, where do you sit/stand?

Are they a registered charity? 🤔😁 You can expect £25 👍🏻

The call has gone out for racenight volunteers but still no sign of ticket prices or anything like that. What can we expect?

Anyone know who's doing this - are Re-Run involved or is the writing on the wall for them given this development?

A stream can never beat being there. I'm the same as Racing Jason 72 and buy streams for meetings I'd never be going to but attending those I can.

Would be funny if we see Bowes or Newman drop to reserve

They'll need someone else for the World Cup/SoN so maybe he'll do those.

With English commentary? (unlikely) 🤞

Yes that’s the rub £20000 plus all the running costs and not to mention that lease that allegedly has a 5 year break clause for either party so maybe not such good news if their aren’t any talks with Pgr.

That's no good Mike, it has to be something we haven't heard before, not a regurgitation of a BSPL press release.

It’s also been reported independently elsewhere that 3 meetings have been arranged this week so as I said we will just have to wait.

So, fake news gets you publicity does it? OK then, here goes,... "Speedway in the UK, is an authentic team sport, brilliantly led, marketed and promoted, by a host of cutting edge, modern day thinking visionaries".... There.. That should get me in the Speedway Star next week... 😁
