The gloves are really off now https://www.peterboroughtoday.co.uk/news/politics/aepg-boss-tells-peterborough-speedway-fans-to-present-business-case-as-supporters-bid-to-save-the-panthers-4638820 Why does he want a business case? He says that speedway is finished and is so confident of his sales pitch that surely we can't trouble his 100,000 supporters (that's approx 1/2 the population of Peterborough btw ) I wouldn't play his game of deflection away from the local plan and other local considerations Our mate Old Nutter summed it up: The AEPG approach is to make a significant point in the low number of times a section of the EoES would be used for speedway.
On it's own that simplistic outsider understanding is obvious in every part of the Butterfield plan.
No separate proper spectator sport can ever hope to get close to making a profit without becoming a part of a shared multi-use volume occupancy. Even the new Spurs stadium has been designed to take in American Football, Women's Football and huge pop concerts plus more.
The lack of speedway in Peterborough is solely down to one misguided outsider.
Any multi-use sport facility of the kind that anyone with a single brain-cell would contemplate to future-proof the continued community value of the EoES would have to be designed to accommodate a wide range of sports, both inside and outside. The areas under the grandstands could be able to house gym-type sporting facilities, squash, badminton, martial arts and so-on. The centre green could be used for grass type sports like local school football and hockey championships and so on. -
So after two days of heavy rain in the north west , the weather on Friday and Saturday is set to be dry when the Oxford Cheetahs come to Workington looking for League points. The Cheetahs have a very strong top two heat leaders in Sam Masters and Scot Nichols backed up by Cameron Heeps , Jordan Jenkins and Henry Atkins.Also in the Oxford side are talented reserves Luke Killeen and hot prospect Ashton Boughen. The Comets are missing the flying Finn Antti Vuolas and is replaced by former Comet Connor Bailey .

Indeed. We can focus on the real issues and not get deflected by who owns what.

Would many consider adding UK racing to their commitments? Lambert or Lindgren?
