The Dukes had a team in the NJL a few seasons back but the interest died out.

Would normally be a minor annoyance but the Ben fund is a worthy cause.

What are the Team GB's home fixtures this year?

He’s been hacked off

Now there's two name to conjure with. I met Kevin with his now more famous son at a NSSC meeting not so long along. A humble and kindly fellow who I had a lot of time for back in the day. But Andy Hackett. I remember him riding at Brandon after the second halves, right through to his senior team days. Whatever happened to him?

Jason Garrity

I agree but I know some don’t

Intensive care

Pardon the pun but are the new owners ' sweeping a broom' through the place? I seem to remember in 1989 the late great John Earrey replacing Rob Chandler on the mic and various other personnel changes from the Shears era. In summary we all have to accept that UK Speedway has a terminal diagnosis and it's patients are in denial!

Good luck Northampton. We all wish you well. Period

Andy Hackett or Kevin Hawkins?

Joking aside. This is a great chance to keep the Bees name alive, and to revive some of those memories of classic ties between these two great sides. The Bees always came to Cowley and gave a good account of themselves. It will be a pleasure to go back in time for one night at least. I don't live local anymore but I'll bee there. I hope to see many old friends there as well.

Well it was a bit of sarcasm which clearly went over your head but hey ho

Booooring

I think someone was attacking Youhave2minutes. It’s shouldn’t be a crime posting as much as he liked. However you appeared to have him disapear which I hope you are pleased about? This forum don’t need troublemakers like you. I personally was not affected by his postings. He started many interesting topics. Sad loss unfortunately.

Cheers DJ.Did a Wikipedia search and Belle Vue Rangers were active at Hyde Rd between 1933-1955.

I'd have to pick Harris & Nicholls as a top 2 then the Thompson Twins as they were mascots there, for the lower order I think they will come from the Chargers line up. Then as Manager Rosco!!! or if the budget allows Greg Hancock or Hans Nielsen who each rode for both teams.

Nice bunch on here be damned Your excluded

Well done to the pair of them. I'm suitably impressed.

Thought he’d got caught in a trap.

Hard to understand why anyone would be anti a new venue being created per se, and i'm not seeing much or indeed any of that being expressed. However, there is considerable concern and scepticism over the chances of it being ready on time, and successful and sustainable, with time constraints being one of the main concerns over effective local marketing and publicity. These concerns and doubts can be expressed in humourous or serious ways, and are sometimes wrapped up within more general concerns about speedway in the Uk and the way it is being run. These are mostly perfectly valid concerns, made in good faith and with the underlying well-being of speedway in the UK at their heart. Whether the above could be justifiably deemed "moaning" is rather irrelevant, especially as the definition of what constitutes "moaning" is likely to vary greatly. I'd liken it to "complaining", and there doesnt seem to anyone complaining that a new venue could be happening. But there are doubts and concerns being expressed, which for the most part seem to be perfectly valid
