What are the terms of the sale of the Oaktree: lease, rented or freehold? Certainly not the best of news. Somerset is a brilliant race track - but who & how do you get the crowd the track deserves. I think you’ve hit the nail on the head in the first paragraph. 57 minutes ago, Trackerman48 said: Was more thinking along the lines of units as there are a lot on there now and all are full. There is going to be additional ones going up soon too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
proud panther 1,505 Posted April 6, 2021 Could a stock car promoter be interested in running speedway as well as cars ? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catalan 717 Posted April 6, 2021 Whilst Bill is fit I cannot see him allowing anyone else to run speedway. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

After last weeks investigative bit by the local reporter you would think the Hancock’s would either confirm or deny the report or reassure the fans on the future 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

The facts were well set out by the Star. Seems Hancocks are not talking to media. They don’t have to but by staying silent they give oxygen to all sorts of theories. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Catalan 717 Posted April 23, 2021 Maybe just maybe they feel that someone they thought was a friend has done a hatchet job on them. I wouldn't have been impressed. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Then a simple statement saying that the speedway is unaffected and we hope to be back in 2022 would suffice. These people are custodians of a sports club, the fans who've paid their hard earned at the Somerset turnstiles should be told the position Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
