    Belle Vue 2022

    In an ideal world, there should be no guests. However they are a necessary evil…we are never going to have riders waiting for a squad of riders. at the moment a guest for no 1 if chosen or if there are two heatleaders missing is a good alternative.

    Belle Vue Colts 2022

    The NDL should be about developing riders. Last year there was some great entertaining racing watching the Colts… hope formore of the same in 2022. it was great watching the young uns develop

    Berwick Bullets 2021

    Good luck this season, Ben. Great to see you are now clear of your injuries from the end of the season. Time to grow in stature and status within the team.Will watch your progress

    Belle Vue Colts 2022

    Signing Archie Freeman reminds me of another geordie who rode at Hyde road…. Mike Hiftle Mike could not get in the colts side and He rode for Glasgow in the top division…. He averaged around 5.5 which is good going in his first season in the top division He did ride for the Aces later on

    If Tai is not riding in Sweden, he can ride in GB. Living at home in gb and commuting to Poland and the gps would probably be favourable to basing in Poland as he has in the past.

    Norwich

    The first time I saw Norwich was at Hyde road with Ove Fundin and Olle Nygren as their top two..what a great spearhead for a team

    Glasgow 2022

    the BSPA site shows no signings for Glasgow… presumably not logged with them yet. However most of the side seems to be announced. Exactly who have they signed

    Handicap Racing

    Handicap racing in America works well because there is a vast difference between the top and the lower ranked riders….but most crucially you need tracks with wide bends allowing sufficient space for passing. The quality of riders in the top 2 leagues is such handicaps would be a step too far

    Belle Vue Colts 2022

    More than pleased with the team. Last year produced good matches and entertaining meetings. I am hoping young Sam will make significant progress next year.

    National League 2022

    Great to see an enlarged NDL.. Shame Workington has been delayed due to shameful vandalism More than happy with the team

    Meeting Formula/Team Lineup

    Peter Craven liked to ride at 5 and see how the track was riding…as did Peter Collins I think

    Workington 2022

    Great shame about the vandalism.Locks smashed suggest a deliberate act against the speedway

    Belle Vue 2022

    As much as I have high regard for Jason, he is way off the rider I want to remember. He was totally fantastic when he rode for us at the greyhound track… I would much prefer for him to retire gracefully

    Belle Vue 2022

    Signing Max which was well advertised at the end of the season and is a good replacement for Dan. However losing Dan is a massive blow as far as I am concerned. I feel sure that Tom B will be part of the team.. but despair re the rest of the team I hope that I am pleasantly surprised

    Sheffield Tigers 2022

    He is not the first rider to allow a bidding war to get his best deal..nor will he be the last. I am sure Adrian Smith will do a deal that suits Belle Vue but will not be involved in a bidding war
  18. They probably have not thought that far yet… answers on a postcard to BSPL.

    Ipswich 2022

    Pleased to see Jason Doyle back in GB. ALMOST A LOCAL TRACK FOR HIM

    workington ..

    Good luck in 2022…. Hope to come up for a league match

    Wolverhampton 2020

    It needs home and away twice for the league and a secondary competition to start the season.. just the same as the 1964 season.

    Belle Vue 2022

    We now have the top 3 British riders all riding in Europe and not available for Britain all because of the Polish extra league rule of two clubs only. in the past many riders have ridden in GB , Poland and Sweden….. I wish Dan all the best even though I am gutted that he is missing…. For me he is the most talented British rider since Peter Collins.

    Peterborough Panthers 2022

    Jamie Courtney involved with Oxford….Harris signed for Berwick… looks very likely that Harris is at Oxford
