Mentioned in the Speedway Star a couple of weeks back that the original potential promoter had fallen through because of the the set-up costs that seem to vary between £130,000 - £200,000.  So before the SCB could even issue a license it would need work on a pits area, changing rooms for riders, removing obstructions and acquiring a foam safety fence. Although the main suppliers of the foam fence have now gone into liquidation. 

If that's the case, Why were Ipswich allowed to race with last season?

So this is a proposal for the development of the old speedway/greyhound stadium?  Meanwhile any news on the proposed “new” speedway facility?

Have a look at comets Facebook page and you will see our new reserve coming from the back at Redcar to beat your Mr Rushden with ease 😁🤣

It did yes. 

Agree but someone needs to call these idiots out and ask how they can continue to target speedway tracks when I suspect not one has ever been to a meeting or knows anything about the sport. Heads up arses and nothing of any substance but no doubt enough readies to pass a few brown envelopes to local decision makers who bow to the biggest cheque book. No different to any other housing developer, liars, cheats and corrupt businessmen who claim to have the interest of the local community but are only worried about the bottom line. No such thing as affordable housing, it is smoke screen and mirrors or to put it bluntly, most building firms talk utter bollocks to weak councillors who you would not piss on if they were on fire.
