am going to be in australia for january and wondering the dates and venues for the 2012 championship, so can make a\few plans thanks for any help or advice.

any provisions been made should the event be rained off????

does the bus service still run on Sundays, if so is there a service back too, i can remember it was a number 20 and ran from town to multi cinema complex., can anyone confirm this is still the case for a sunday. Im thinking of popping on the train as nice weather. thanks

thanks for the information

Am looking to come down by train.. Know stadium isnt that far away, anyone any idea of taxi cost. anyone give me directions to walk from station and roughly how long would it take to walk. Any help gratefully received

If you look at the team places in the pl available, apart from Redcar who ride on same night as Swindon who he has already signed justin as one of the reserves , his only other option looks to be maybe plymouth. Unless there is some last minute developments from the bspa for new aplications to the pl, it looks like Justin will end up riding in the El .Justin has a average of just over 6 points in the pl so difficult to see where he could fit in Nothing to do with silly money being asked nor swindon making life difficult, both parties want to have justin in the Pl, just a sad state that some one will intially miss out but come 1 month in to the season can see one or two teams chasing his signature.

I think the great Mark Loram,s wife was expecting to give Birth so a little harsh on Mark Loram . To LEIGH ADAMS THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES. A GENUINE GREAT GUY

i predict.....freddie lindgren,hans andersen, antonia lindback, then a british rider not that any british deserves a place on past performances but if anyone tia woffinden, 5th spot brave move by authorites darcy ward, purely from a youthful racer,. outsider matej zager surely 2010 wont be as boring series than 2009

Congratulations leigh on bowing out with pride and superb performance, sadly missed next year in the GP. CONGRATULATIONS TO Jason Crump worthy world champion, and sucha nice gesture t comment on the retiring Leigh Adams. both a credit to the sport. I was goingint to also cogratulate Tomas Gollob but since he spat his dummy out andparked his bike on the track to stop a race.. you are a discrace and wont happen but love to see the book thrown at him for his actions but what ever fine he gets will be pea nuts to him.

sad to see the end ofleigh adams in the GP, BUT THANKS FOR THE MEMORIES.A true gentleman on andoff the track and always honest guy, one of the nice guys of the sport. Hopefully 2010 will see Mr Swindon speedway back with the Robins as well as returning to his Polis and Swedish clubs. THANK YOU MR LEIGH ADAMAS, will be interesting to see if he receives anything form the authorities today in recognition of his GP efforts. makes the wildcard entries even more interesting and which British rider will get the nod if any?????? goT to be TIA WOFFINDEN,

congrats to Noddy holder, a new rider to next years series, dont expect a repeat of the emil results but a great addition, regards the wild card nominee,s now very intersting and no Brits in the field originally cant see one rider who is good enough to be picked, very sad for British speedway but time to add to the agenda for the next bspa meeting what can we do for the future to get Britian back , my suggestion for starters is bring in some test matches both here and abroad for experience at least . My nominees next year would be and call me biased.. Leigh Adams, matej zager,hans andersen,antonio lindback, outsiders.. tia woffinden, purely because of the no brits in the GP,PLease no more nichols and Harris had there chances and done nothing to enhance the Gp series this years table is a embarrassement to British speedway. Time for the GP SERIES TO start to deliver raceable tracks too.

Another sad day for speedway, when a fellow promoter refuses permission for his rider to earn . If they were to claim they didnt want to risk their riders with the run in to the championship and possible promotion , well Swindon better with draw all ther riders in that case just in case. Still a quality field and well done to Midland Robin forputting on such a prestige event, maybe this can become a regular event. wondered if any of the field from the GP qualifyer had been approached, maybe the ones we rarely see may be even Pavlic, be interesting to see how he goes in that event. disappointed no Ward though.

GP QUALIFYE UPDATES??

LEAVE THE OLD BOY ALONE, who cares wher he is in respect to the meeting, his mistakes comments and errors have been the most entertaining aspect of the gp series so far this year, certainly hasnt been the racing

Any one know the team line ups for the junior meet on sunday 12th october, heard a rumour that each team will be 1 experienced rider with 3 raw juniors filling rest of field, did hear sergei Darkin was going to line up for Leicester and Richard sweetman riding for swindon, any one any ideas of the teams ..
