TheWellBehavedWorrall 320 Posted September 15, 2023 Isn’t the west like Newcastle, Middlesbrough, Hull, etc.? Graeme Gordon and Mark Simmonds were associated with Exeter which I’d assume was classed as the south. I’ve no idea, but I’m going to guess… Toni Svab?

Apologies; I’ve forgotten to switch my brain on. I meant clubs like Workington and Belle Vue being in the East. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I literally have no idea why I typed “East” when I had already said “West”. Sorry, it’s been a long day. When referring to UK speedway, I’d call Glasgow & Edinburgh ‘North’, Newcastle and Hull ‘East’, Workington and Belle Vue ‘West’ while Exeter and Poole ‘South’.
