pandorum 1,259 Posted October 7, 2014 (edited) There are some on here who will read and weep. You are such a fool mate why should anyone be anti that even if you qualify it with a wink Now we can see something real taking place. Once the ground is broken it is likely to end up with a stadium. Excellent news but the points raised here about debt and making it pay will still stand unfortunately. This idea that fans will flock to the place in thousands is a bit too optimistic. Once the honeymoon period is over BV will struggle just like all the rest of the EL except Poole Edited October 7, 2014 by pandorum Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

jimmy jimmy 298 Posted October 7, 2014 Well it's started!! Still a huge amount of work to be done, but this is a big step forward. Leaving Kirky Lane is a big boost to the speedway here. Really think the Cradley promotion should get their councillors up to see what is happening. This is still a small stadium in Manchester but something similar would be a big stadium in Dudley. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
5 FURROW 97 Posted October 7, 2014 So after 7 years of hard work and against all expectations Belle Vue achieve something which may just help to save this sport we love. It will provide modern facilities that might just encourage newcomers to return and properly structured training facilities to encourage British talent and you want the council to pull the plug. If everyone had that attitude the sport really would be doomed. As for the pathetic comment about fact finding missions, only a fool would embark on such a major project without doing as much research as possible. Well its took them long enough to find out what they need in a stadium and all of the tracks ive seen them at you need'nt worry Bellvue is not gonna match to the ones they have visited Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Not sure that is the case.I guess people just can't see it being a success.In reality i think everyone must have their fingers crossed,because if this doesn't succeed it is Goodnight Vienna for British speedway.I do think speedway missed a chance when the Speedway Star was asking British speedway to get behind Plough Lane.I hope this time British speedway gets behind this project otherwise it will increasingly become a backwater on the European scene Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I don't think anyone will really hope that it fails but there are an awful lot who said it wouldn't happen (despite all the statements to the contrary) and who now stand to look pretty foolish.
