They were instrumental in saving Molineux when the Bhatti brothers were planning other ideas. I also heard that a site was being looked at in South Staffs, closer to the M6. But there were problems with that venue being too close to a motorway junction. Pie in the sky. Absolutely no chance of any new speedway tracks being built in the UK in the current climate. Its over.

ouch 1,191 Posted July 20, 2023 I’d do everything in my power to help Wolverhampton get a new track. That’s been the case since the mid 90’s Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,096 Posted July 21, 2023 (edited) I know there are some who dont like the Wolves track but i always found it a good entertaining away track to visit when Poole were in the same league. I think to lose any club is awful but to lose such a club that has been at the top for so long would be devastating for speedway.

I'm pretty sure Dave Parry (Parry's Coaches) has contacts around the Cheslyn Hay area whether or not that would be to far for Wolverhampton fans I have no idea but it would'nt surprise me if some land was found around that area.

DJWolves 82 Posted July 22, 2023 People saying that the greyhound track at Dunstall Park will replace Perry Barr. No way will there be two greyhound tracks in Wolverhampton. The new track will replace Perry Barr and Monmore. That leaves Monmore Green vacant when the speedway closes and ripe for housing. Be nice to think when the dogs leave that speedway could take over Monmore, but no way would that stadium be financially viable if it’s just used for speedway 20+ times a year. I wondered if a track and stadium could be created in East Park. Build it around the cycle speedway track that’s already there, and if the council are really keen to keep speedway in the town they could help develop a multi sport venue there, maybe with a leisure centre.

Apparently it's also emerged on Facebook that the fruit and veg wholesale market next door to Monmore will be turned into appartments. That's not a good sign . 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
