Only problem Geoff the ice cream has gone downhill and the ques have got bigger

Dare I ask if a bit of land was found in Sunderland would you never go to speedway again ?? Or go with gritted teeth to enemy land !!

Was it ever legal ? Can remember in mid seventies riders putting a syringe of the stuff in, also think a great character of that era jack Millen got killed in a car crash which burst into flames rumoured to be caused by nitro.

Good article in speedway star, seams like Rob grant got his head screwed on in what he wants, but the big problem is finding somewhere to bring these ideas through, then get planning permission which IMO will be very difficult as a lot of people won't want a speedway/motor sport arena near them, but good luck

Also would assume a lot of tickets sold for back straight standing area, so where will they squeeze in ?

Speedway mentioned in daily mail today about several trial stadium events for September to be monitored by a government team/department. Speedway event was to be at Ipswich, then results of these test events would determine whether larger crowds can attend in October, other sports doing trial are football, rugby, cricket, horse racing and basketball

Was expecting hotels to cost an arm and a leg for 2021 as the date was known well before you could book hotels, but was very surprised and pleased to get premier Inn in city centre for £129 for 2 nites !! Mind I did stay up until early hours the nite hotels were released

Capacity was 9000 with the extra stand for world cup, would think a licensed capacity would be around 5000, but I doubt that that figure has been achieved

Strange watched Moto GP on tablet via app last few weeks no extra charge to do it, got a very good phone/broadband deal for next 2 years. Will be peeded off if they try and charge. I Just downloaded bt app from play store ( or similar, ) then use bt account details to log into app no problems

If you have bt broadband you get bt sport free if you use the app and watch on a tablet or link tablet to your telly

At least it keeps the comets on the 1st page of the forum

Heard a few bikes going round a couple of weeks ago, but that was before the Monsoon's hit west Cumbria

Geoff100 did you hear about the Harrington caravaners ? The ones that are left have gone abroad somewhere and left some east European caravaners looking after things till they get back !! Then will claim they have to stay put as in quarantine for 14 days

Probably rolled over till next year !! Same as my Cardiff and Warsaw GP tickets, looks like a busy 2021 if this virus does one !!

Probably more attending than a normal speedway meeting, don't know how stock cars have got round the rules regarding crowds, but SON will a near sell out so don't know how it's gonna happen

If this comes true would be good, but I think our local council could be a stumbling block !! Good luck to the guy in his efforts

Was it when the circus was in town with 2 elephants ?

Comets top the comments table again !!

Think they may put in a temporary stand around turns 3+4 to spread the crowd out !!

Well done ruthless may have a decent go at GP's next year, brought the house down when he won a race in Warsaw last year, I was many of the Brits in the stadium going bonkers, also had a cheeky bet for Rob to win sec at 12/1

Think this is the correct decision can now focus on 2021 with the same teams, hope all clubs are able to run

I'll go for 1st April 2021 got something about it

With all the various rules surrounding getting a stadium ready for fans, then will enough fans turn up to make it viable, will teams have a full set of riders willing to race for maybe a couple of months, will any potential sponsors have any money left to spend on helping speedway run ? All these very big questions, and the answer will only come if they decide to run, but if no one turns up and money does not come thro, clubs are running at a far higher loss than normal !!. So imo it would be best to forget about speedway in 2020, and focus on 2021 with the same teams

Wow got hotel booked premier Inn city centre £120 for 2 nites !!!! Easy jet Newcastle to Bristol £50 return, who said going to Cardiff is expensive

Did you give it to THJ
