GP challenge confirmed for Glasgow 2022. Absolutely brilliant news and more confirmation of the good work being done at the club. Can't wait

August 20th! Congratulations, a great reward for the hard work put in by the promotion

Laugh all you like I stand by what I said

Just pleased to be able to look forward to watching Speedway at Brough in 2022. For a while it didn’t look good.

I suppose with a home track advantage type team you keep the home fans happy seeing a winning team, especially back in the day with the bonus point , although a slightly different situation now, even so win all your home matches especially with an 8 + margin and playoffs virtually guaranteed , mind you I think MPT would be wanted at any track and team at the moment.

Now I know your making things up……………. They have never had blokes selling the Chronicle for years in town

It went to Tuesday when Weymouth moved there operation to Poole, the Poole Wildcats

For most tracks in the UK regular practice sessions and or coaching events are nigh on impossible Only a handful have few if any restrictions of use My local track for example (Ipswich) are limited not only by landlord expectations but also local authority restrictions The stadium is only allowed to hold a maximum number of events each year *can't recall the exact number but it may well be less than 1 a week on average There is then a restriction of no more than 2 events in any 8 day period as well as limitations as to what times and for how long the event takes place Get over any of that and you then have the fact that the landlord would want in excess of £3000 to open the doors

The original......looks like a row of trees still show the outer edge of the stadium to the right High Beech : https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/side-by-side/#zoom=16&lat=51.66557&lon=0.03746&layers=193&right=ESRIWorld

In fairness think a lot of scunthorpe fans don't believe they seen Adam at his best which is probably true . However don't think there is any animosity towards him just think there are potentially better fits for us as a club

Ringwood Side by side georeferenced maps viewer - Map images - National Library of Scotland (nls.uk) Exeter Side by side georeferenced maps viewer - Map images - National Library of Scotland (nls.uk) Interesting to see that Exeter was an athletics stadium pre-speedway.

Cardiff - Penarth https://maps.nls.uk/geo/explore/#zoom=15.659999999999995&lat=51.45982&lon=-3.19536&layers=193&b=1 Opened in October 1950, Penarth Road Stadium was a purpose-built speedway stadium paid for by Major A. J. Lennox and his business partner Leslie Maidment. The first races held here were in April 1951 but racing was wound up in 1953 after a series of poorly attended events. The site remained derelict until 1969 when it was demolished. The site is commemorated in the street name 'Stadium Close'.

I don't see what the big fuss is about Ellis, I'd rather have someone who's fully committed to Scunthorpe and won't miss as many meetings

No way- it`s UK OR Sweden NOT both.

To give them maybe more of a balance on away tracks? Tracks like Lakeside, Rye House and Eastbourne often seemed to overkill the home small track specialists to the detriment of their away results.. One thing for sure with MPT is that you will get 100%, so any gap, however tiny, will have his bike aimed at it, which will be fun to watch on a tight circuit..

Poole haven't signed any motoX riders either

Hi Skidder Wasn't aimed in your direction . My comments were aimed more at could the promoters have already agreed on structure/points limits & if any changes to if 1 or 2 rising stars for season 2022. Also the fact that so far Zach has not been named in the 5 named Plymouth riders which a bit of a surprise (if he was staying) considering how low his GSA is, and the fact they have 2 rising stars named in the 5 so far. We all know Zach is a potential upward mover on that 4.40 GSA. His Poole guest scores alone prove that plus he improved in the later part of the season. Let's hope we can get him My only concern on the legal battle was if like many UK legal situations it dragged on well in to 2022 which not great for the Club/riders or us supporters. I am sure Danny/Matt have things well in hand. I am soooo glad I was wrong in how things were going at one stage earlier. So pleased I was wrong big time Knowing the points limit and rising star situation would make the close season name next seasons team game much more interesting and better . I mean for those of us not so close to any inside info .

So, adding to the 4 we already have, will make 7?

Also heard the same - straight from 'a horse's mouth'!!!

Well done - lets hope it doesn't delay any domestic league/cup fixtures!!

Also Batch couldn't drop down this year as his converted average was above 12

Friend who goes to Kent every week says Terry Russell been a regular there. Maybe here move his Swindon setup into Central Park. And that where Doyley is coming back and racing in the UK

Thought that no Wednesday night racing was the main reason Poole stepped across the the Championship? Poole as long as I remember gas ALWAYS been a Wednesday night track . Anyone on here remember when the first rode on a Wednesday night ?

This is a fabulous thread!

You would think that these clubs would need to do something similar to each other all the time as their business model must be heavily based on 'local' derbies.. If only one moves then they are very much stand alone.. And if two move that leaves one left alone.. Bottom line though is why would any team "move up" when you can see the vast majority of the same riders each week already in the 2nd tier?

That’s an extreme example to pick. He’s a reserve in a team where six riders have an average within one point of each other.

Poole to move back into the Premiership. Jack Holder to Poole Jason Doyle to Sheffield.

I’m happy to keep this up to date as and when extra riders are confirmed and signed to each team. This can be referred back to each time at the start of the thread then.

i think that post was going around a couple of years ago . how long can thj keep stum ?

Yes, part of the group of Poole Juniors that also included Middlo. Yeatesy at Poole but Ringwood is referenced https://scontent-lcy1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/92355133_1040778626315488_3927287347791527936_n.jpg?_nc_cat=101&amp;ccb=1-5&amp;_nc_sid=b9115d&amp;_nc_ohc=SvU6gVg9g-AAX_jo5_j&amp;_nc_ht=scontent-lcy1-1.xx&amp;oh=a3e7245b49dd18d875d172ca9677dc4e&amp;oe=61B20ECF Middlo https://scontent-lcy1-1.xx.fbcdn.net/v/t1.6435-9/92422220_1040778356315515_6531625455886270464_n.jpg?_nc_cat=111&amp;ccb=1-5&amp;_nc_sid=b9115d&amp;_nc_ohc=Xgu_s_M59lAAX9YV345&amp;_nc_ht=scontent-lcy1-1.xx&amp;oh=b7a2470c884fb4bac0ee956ee3af41f7&amp;oe=61B1E85F

Grieves & little out of retirement or maybe our geordie Dane Mr juul ha

I’d rather see Ryan Douglas and Jake Allen than Adam Ellis

That's Zielona Gora remaining in the second tier for 2023 then. Brilliant team built by the Bydgoszcz management.

Sorry, mis-read your post thinking staying in top league in Poland.

My mate’s Sisters Brother-in-Law has been told off someone who bought a Chronicle from someone selling them in the city centre that her uncle’s cousin reckons we’re in Talks with Laguta who they reckon comes in on a 3 point average because he once watched Neighbours and has a Kylie poster on his wall. Keep it to yourself

Zach Cook very likely to be a pirate i would think!

You can see evidence of an oval of some sorts.

No He doesn’t tell me anything but I’ve heard from another source that there’s definitely 3 more coming in

It clearly made a big difference to be happy where he was racing - under Brit team managers etc etc.

Think again….Palm Toft no.1 at Peterborough…..no.4 at Redcar !

I remember a George Stancl interview on an Edinburgh speedway video, commenting on racing in England, only to be reminded he rides in Scotland lol!

That’s an obvious downside, but their owners are very ambitious and I wouldn’t be surprised if they decide to give it a crack.

would happily have Jack and Chris at Poole anytime

Happy with that Does it mean Paul and Matty flipflopping between 1.and 5, or just 5? Hopefully there is a genuine #1 to come

He can be "on the slide downwards" and still be one of the top 2 riders in the league! (with Jack Holder)

Great to see Doyle remain loyal to Britsh Speedway. He's more of a Brit than Bewley, Lambert and Woffinden.

Unfortunately I have a big big feeling he will be at Ipswich,,,, as we do seem to like an Aussie that doesn't live up to expectations.

Really hope the NDL in 2022 will be as such that Mildenhall can defend the title.

What was first prize; a copy of Pie 'n' Mash and Prefabs?
