Doubt Andre will be riding after tonight.

Due to regulations in place we are unable to use elite league riders (which of course we would have liked due to Wayne having at some point ridden with many of them).

We are using premier riders were we can but due to commitments abroad and meetings taking place on the same day we can not get all of which we would have liked.

We have just heard abut Andre and hope that he is ok.

There isn't a great deal of information about Wayne's Farewell meeting in the Speedway Star this week. Can someone tell me how much the admission prices are and if there is a social get-together afterwards. Thanks.

[Phil 303]

We also will have a once in a lifetime chance for one lucky supporter to win Waynes Number 1 Championship winning Scunthorpe race jacket, tickets for this will be £1.00 each and will be sold just inside the gate as you come in and will be drawn directly after the parade, JL will be selling these tickets so have your £1.00 coin ready to pay her when you come through the gates.

[Phil 303]

Due to regulations in place we are unable to use elite league riders (which of course we would have liked due to Wayne having at some point ridden with many of them).

That a very unfair rule, it should be up to Wayne who he invites to race in his meeting!!

Unfortunately the Powers that be changed the rules and the Elite League riders who had declared they would ride in the meeting we had to turn down due to the new rules. It is a shame as like many of you I think its great for Conference League fans to have the opportunity to see some of the top Elite boys in action

 

P.S. The emu racing is at the interval

 

P.P.S. Lets hope the sun shines and we all have a good day tomorrow
