This meeting is on but its not a junior meeting, all 4 teams are using premier / top end conference riders not raw juniors.

 

Team From Leicester, Oxfrod, Bristol & Swindon will take part

 

Leicest will be as far as I know

 

Sergie Darkin, Simon Lambert Luke Priest + 1 & Adam Lowe as Res

 

Bristol

 

Semon Valsov, Mark Simmonds, Andrew Bargh, Jay Hearne + Res

 

Oxford

 

Kozza Smith, Kyle Hughes, Jamie Courtney, Lee Smart & Brendan Johnson as Res

 

Swindon

 

Richard Sweatman, Danny Warwick + 2 & 1 Res.

 

So as you can see no raw juniors.

The details for this meeting can be found on the half page ad inside the back cover of this week's Speedway Star.

 

But, as I'm the one who has artworked the programme, I can tell you the team line ups as they have gone to print:

 

SWINDON SKIP SPROCKETS:

1. Cory Gathercole

2. Charlie Saunders

3. Richard Sweetman

4. Danny Warwick

Res: Ben Reid

 

OXFORD TFSuccess.com CHEETAHS:

1. James Cockle

2. Kyle Hughes

3. Jamie Courtney

4. Lee Smart

Res: Brendan Johnson

 

LEICESTER LIONS:

1. Sergei Darkin

2. Simon Lambert

3. Luke Priest

4. Adam Lowe

Res: Mark Thompson

 

BRISTOL BULLDOGS:

1. Semen Vlasov

2. Mark Burrows

3. Mark Simmonds

4. Gareth Isherwood

Res: Jordan Tyrer

 

 

Start time is indeed 6pm. Fingers crossed for some decent weather. Hopefully the meeting attract fans as 3 presently 'homeless' clubs will be in action, and for Swindon fans it's the last meeting of the season at the Abbey Stadium. It's a long winter so please come down and support the meeting!

 

It will be raced over the traditional 16 heat format plus two extra heats. One for the reserves, which guarantees them a ride, and a final 'nominated' race. Special guests have been invited such as Phil Crump and Les Collins, and I know that Norman Hunter (former Robin and Lions rider) is going to climb back on a bike for a few laps.

 

And like Nick Andrews has rightly said, there are more than just 'raw juniors' on show so we should see some good racing. Sunday is a case of raising awareness for the 'homeless' clubs and the meeting is being staged by Andy Hewlett (Bristol) and David Hemsley of the Beaumont Sports Complex Ltd (the consortium behind the proposed new site up here in Leicester) so it'd be great if they had a decent turn out as they've put a hell of a lot of work and money into staging the event.

 

See you there!

Christ knows whether this is the correct place for this thread but seeing as it is mainly CL riders I thought here was as good as place as any. Anyone got the line-ups?

Hmm, still a little puzzling...

Does this mean that Weymouth are going into their match (which admittedly is a 'dead rubber') at Rye House this same Sunday afternoon without Lee Smart and Brendan Johnson..?? :unsure:

 

Love the factthat Buzz and Mark Simmonds are paired up together in a quartet described as a "juniors" side!! :wink::lol:

Well Brendan seems ok with getting there from Rye,as does Smart.

 

They both reckon on about 1.5 hrs.

 

So long as neither are required in ht15,I think they will be ok.

Which just goes to show that it should be IN HERE :rolleyes:

 

How many threads have been started and then moved about CL events :mad:

 

It's not a Testimonial

 

It's not an Individual

 

It is a shared event - but it's a CL shared event - not a 'Whatsit' Cup organised between promoters.

 

I think that any EL, PL or CL event organised by BSPA should be in the relevant CL, PL or EL section...

And I know I'm not the only one :wink:
