Exactly this, it cannot be good news that the Agricultural society have sold out, this is a quote from an earlier press release. ason Lunn, EEAEC venue director, explained that the plans to redevelop the showground would move forward without immediate impact on current or future events at the venue, saying, “The Arena and it’s connecting halls, all the buildings and the entire outdoor complex will remain unchanged and fully operational until 2023, at which point it is likely that gradual, phased withdrawal of facilities will begin at the showground boundary.” If this is still the plan who knows.

Hopefully this auction advert isn’t bad news.

Video now removed by Vimeo for “ depicting extreme violence” or someone has reported it not wanting it on here for people to make their own minds up!

Longer 2 minute version, sorry no sound and taken from tele by phone.

I can video from the tele to my phone but the file would be to large to upload here I think as it’s about 2 minutes.

Old school speedway still exists if anybody else is better technically than me and is also friends with him they may be able to link it here.

Have a look on Shaun Tacey Facebook page full video there. I can’t seem to link it here for some reason.

I think it would be interesting to know how many “personnel” GB had with them at the SON finals, as I can’t see any benefit apart from maybe a physio, any of the nutritionists, fitness coaches, agony aunts, sleep coaches etc being there, by the time the meeting comes round what can they do? It’s been documented in the past of complaints from other teams about the amount of extra personnel GB had in the pits. It was said on the TV coverage that Dave Rowe was assisting Rossiter in the pits, was he there just for this? or in some journalistic capacity? Now my point about this, it was said Bewley had a visa in place, if so save a seat on the plane for the boy instead of any of the above, let him take a set of his preferred handlebars and seat ( as cook did for the GP challenge there, he didn’t take bikes ) if freight costs were an issue, then if he was required, fit these to a fellow team members bike, not ideal but good enough to feel comfortable. If he wasnt required to ride just let him soak in the occasion, observe and take in how the nations at the sharp end go about things.

Hi, I'm looking to sell my collection of Sunderland Speedway programmes and two Sunderland badges. They consist of 1964 x 8 1971 x 5 1972 x18 1973 x 10 and 1974 x 11 Honestly don't know the price of this collection so please PM me with offers if interested or if you need any more information, I'm only looking to sell as a whole and not individual matches against particular teams. Many Thanks

Oh thanks for that, didn’t realise the value, it’s in vgc, maybe listing them separately on eBay is the way to go then.

I wouldn’t sell them all for £30, I’ve had a few people message me about individual books so will sell for £9 each plus £3 postage, apart from Chum Taylor which will be £5.

Quite possibly the case, I haven't been to the showground yet this year but just read your post about trenches and bits marked for digging all over the site which would, I assume include the cattle sheds and Arena Centre area. Health and Safety is the reason given on the press realise and many more people attend these fayres than the average crowd even for a local derby, shame for the promotion and no doubt out of their hands as Bank Holiday fixtures usually generate a nice income for the club.
