catinthehat 115 Posted March 16, 2015 I didnt even think he will arrive with all the visa problems, Good Job to all the people at Eastbouirne Speedway i will be going to press day just to see how good this kid is also to see how this networking is going to happen, All we need to find out is who is the new sponsor? I have a feeling its something to do with Fatboy Slim or something to do with a music band? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I have a feeling its something to do with Fatboy Slim or something to do with a music band? I think Eastbourne were wise not to announce BWD until he was through the arrival doors and in Britain. Those with long memories will remember the disappointment of Gizatullin being refused a visa and having to make a last-minute change. Always best to have some excitement in the papers just before you go racing. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevec 300 Posted March 16, 2015 I am guessing he is part British so I assume that would get him over any visa issues. Great news he is confirmed at last, it looks like the Dugards really rate him. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catinthehat 115 Posted March 16, 2015 (edited) This made me laugh, the Bradley kid has travelled half way around the world I would think about 24 to 30 hours on planes and looks as fresh as a daisy, Connor Dugard has travelled from Eastbourne to Heathrow early hours and looks all washed out, maybe it was the worry that Bradley wasn’t going to make it through the UK customs door? I have to say he is a bit of alright, and even better I have just found him on twitter, will have to give him a tweet or even a treat lol. http://www.speedwaygb.co/news.php?extend.28474@@BradWilsonDean Edited March 16, 2015 by catinthehat 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

00000 1,279 Posted March 18, 2015 Eastbourne all over social media like a rash this week. Grabbing every opportunity to get publicity; can;'t blame them with the season starting soon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Mike.Butler 601 Posted March 18, 2015 the national league stands to be the most exciting out of the 3 this season, Eastbourne are in the right place 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
00000 1,279 Posted March 18, 2015 Have to say Mike, it feels like that to me. I think the NL will be competitive, lots of young riders who can link with the supporters. NL is the place to be 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
catinthehat 115 Posted March 19, 2015 My mate let it slip who the new sponsor is I dont want to upset the sponsor or take away the glory. Well done to the Eastbourne club. An Elite league sponsor size in the national league. This will bring up the standard. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

An Elite league sponsor size in the national league. This will bring up the standard. Good for you for keeping it under the cat's hat. That's the responsible thing for fans to do. Anyone who does know should stay quiet until the official announcement. We all know it is hard getting sponsors and Eastbourne appear to have done well, if Catinthehat is right.
