First time visit and this is my observations.  Firstly, why is there no signs anywhere directing you to Northampton Shaleway. Driving along the Bedford Road(A428) towards Braefield, where you turn right into Horton Road there should be a big sign pointing the way. Not just for Speedway, but what about the Stocks who get far bigger crowds. Parking was easy and organised. Once in the Stadium, the Burger Bar could of done with a third person serving. Prices were a lot cheaper than i have been paying at many Cricket Grounds this summer. Long queues for the bar(on a hot night) and again they could of done with another person serving. The crowd was bigger than when i went to Belle Vue last week. I'd guess 1,500-2,000. Racing was ok but mainly follow the leader after the 1st/2nd bends. Why was the track not watered more often. After heat 4 & heat 7 the tractor graded but no water put down. By heat 9 things were getting uncomfortable with the dust, apart from being on my hair & skin, it was starting to make my eyes sting. At interval after heat 10, track was watered and rest of meeting was bearable with minimal dust. Not to many problems getting out after meeting ended.  Overall though, an enjoyable evening and i would attend again, but not on a regular basis as i live 70 miles away.  Was told they are putting a roof on the stand in the close season and only other thing is could they not have a scoreboard, for those that don't fill programmes. Surprised there isn't one for the Stock racing.

Maybe but I think it’s sour grapes from our manager We was 6 points up after 11 heats and if kemp hadn’t have fallen in heat 11 Leicester could not have used a tac sub in heat 12 Is Hurry seriously blaming Dickson when after 11 heats we was 6 clear!???

Nothing wrong with R/R for any rider it’s a rule that works and always has  just unfortunate that tonight every team was riding 

Just hype for the cup final... nobody really gives a toss about the league until the pay offs

Expected result really  Doyle showing again that he gives 110% in every meeting even if it is just before a GP…. No single figure score from him and did heat 15 with the match on the line     

Awwwww Bless.....
