The Poole Meeting In January

[The Poole Meeting In January]

Any meeting held in the memory of Tim Stone should be held at Newport. What most people don't realise is that the people that supported Newport over the years have not had the opportunity to pay a minutes silence to him like other tracks have. The New Year Classic was an individual meeting run by Tim Stone at Newport.

I wholeheartedly agree with Tanya - is it possible at this time to transfer this meeting to Newport where it obviously belongs?Poole are not doing themselves any favours in this matter.

[Crump & Nicki]

Nicki is ok, he did suffer with some sort of internal bleeding and bruising. He is going to take a few days off but hopes to be fit for the Danish meeting on Friday. Don't think Crump broke anything and should be back riding this week.

[Speedway In Wales/scotland]

It' s hard to tell whether or not speedway would take off in other parts of Wales. There were people who were interested in the prospect of habing Speedway in Swansea, but oher factors hampered that. Neath did have a team years ago and it was popular. That only went because of developers. The only place I could think of in Neath would be the Walters arena which is suppposed to be a designated motorsports area. But because of its location, I'm not too sure about that either! It all depends on whether people want to take a risk and put a lot in to it (meaning advertising etc) who knows but I would love to have more Speedway in Wales and Scotland.
