I'm sure their would be huge interest if Bristol reopened. I'd say probably a reborn Bristol speedway operation ran well would comfortably get the biggest crowds in British speedway just like they did in the late 70's.

 

Apart from seeing a former 'boom' centre reopen which would be a huge boost for speedway a reopened Bristol Bulldogs speedway set up would put more pressure on the Reading promotion to drop their ridiculous renaming of Reading to the Bulldogs and revert them back to their proper name of the Racers!

 

A multi sports venue featuring speedway, greyhounds and others would do well and would ensure the viability of the venture.

 

I think this thread would get more publicity (EG more people would look at it!) ifit was in the general discussion section rather than this section!

If Bristol and Birmingham made comebacks the league could have 3 "Bulldogs" teams ......

Bristol, who were the Bulldogs.......Reading, who are the Bulldogs.......and Birmingham who were the Bulldogs (The Original ones at that)

Not forgetting Plymouth too! They also rode as the `Bulldogs` > 1961 when Eric Salmon moved the team there after Bristol closed. Maybe they could drop the `Devils` and make it 4 teams ! (ha ha)
