I went to Kent a couple of years ago and was very impressed with the stadium, had a really enjoyable night and then drove back to Solihull, it was a nice feeling getting home a lot earlier than I would from some of the long distance 7.30 tracks. I wish the track was a couple of hours nearer, then I would become a regular.

I remember one complait against the Brummies when we started back, this resident moaned that the noise was very loud on this wednesday night in question. This woman must of had super hearing as we were away at Kings lynn that night, daft cow.

In this case it might have been a good idea as she helped Bjerre put his shoulder back in, sounds like a lady who knows what she is doing.

Yes come on Tony, get them back, PL please.

What were the odds on that!

had an idea, with all the racing heritage that Belle Vue have over the years, 4 world champions, some of the greats ridden for you, why not open a museum on site, it could be open to the general public during the day even when there not racing and during the winter as well. Get one of those brown signs up and get it on the general tourist package as well, tourist information and all that, dont know too much about Manchester myself but I reckon it could work. If the council are backing it think of the people it would bring in.

Very enjoyable GP and what a crowd, looked full to me. Well done to AJ, good close racing and the usual tatrum from Pedersen, I thought he was going to hit thet woman for a minute. Hope K Bjerre is not feeling to battered this morning, Wuffy looked in so much pain, got 7 points to keep him in the running.

Good luck to him, hope he goes well.

You lucky buggers, wish I was there, been there a few times and always enjoyed it.

NO bloody stock cars. never ever in any shape or form.

Your the Daddies R&R.

What we looking at now Phil, is it 2016 or longer, hoping its 2016 then we can get the SWC back home where it belongs about time we had it as well.

Just looked it up on motorstv, 25th sept 9pm (21.00) and again at 5.30am on the 26th and 3.30pm(15.30) again on the 26th, I didnt think i could find that, well pleased there going to show it.

Thanks r&r, thats a shame I thougth Fim-live would have been the filming as they did last year at Poole. Im sure that was shown later on about a week later on motors tv? IM probably wrong but could swear I watched it, then again I could be going mad.

Sorry can I Just point out the nico covatti is argentian and only rides on an italian license, and birmingham have 5 former riders in the line up, Harris, Covatti, Carpenese, Doyle and Smolinski. What time does it start over here on the saturday and can you watch the fim-live feed?

Ill look into that, fantastic I could watch out of the kitchen window, crowd would be a problem and the track would be kinda small I reckon I could get 20 in the garden, do a few sandwiches and keep the kettle on. Press box could be on the garage roof now or I have to do is have a word with solihull Council and get planning permission, European grand prix for 2016 will be in Solihull. Tickets will be a bit expensive due to the low capacity. Im not to far from Birmingham airport either. The bus and rail travel is close as well, theres a bus stop just up the road, right next job have a word with BSI. Ill keep you informed of the progress of this project.

Im a bit jealous of those that are going, had a great time last season in Stockholm its a lovely city, its well worth a visit and I enjoyed the stadium as well.

You could go back to the old days and have the ELRC there as they did for many years at Hyde road, whats the chance of the European Grand prix coming to Britain. It seems a bit odd to me that an event called European GP is always in Poland, if its a european event shouldent it be spread about to other european countrys, this might generate some capital as a new Grand prix of this sort in different countrys generally gets a good crowd.

dont know what year it was but Frank Ebdon excluded Hans nielsen for wheelieing over the line when he won the race. Remember at sheffiled when the Brummies were there 2008 or 09, a sheffield rider fell off going into the second bend and the ref excluded the Brummie rider who at least 15 feet in front of him even the sheffield supporters couldent understand why the ref exclude the brummies bloke, I just cant remember the refs name.

I find it odd in this day and age of new stadiums that there is only cover on one side of the stadium, im not sure of all the plans but will it be a four sided stadium for viewing and Im not taking the pee here but Manchester is well known for its rain so I would have thought at least a bit of cover for the supporters on the back straight, so people can come in from the bends incase of bad weather to shelter until it stops. Saying that I am looking forward to seeing the finished stadium as its always exciting going to a new venue.

I havent been on this for a few days, I cant believe its still going on, whats to discuss till we find out what Ward will get as punishment, bloody amazing.

Jonsson, Lindgren and Smolinski havent done a lot for me this season, feel the two swedes have had enough chances to be at the top and never got there and the German just isnt good enough. Batchelor, MJJ and one of the upcoming poles to get a wildcard call oter than that its been quite an entertaining season.

Feel for Iversen at the moment, no more SGP this season, hope he gets a pick for next year.

I went up to Hull and Arthur slid off, he got up and walked over to the hose pipe and hosed himself down, classic big A, great rider and team man.

Start the way they mean to carry on, bloody great adverts all over the place months before the opening, get it out there to the people that have never heard of speedway. Dont think because its in the speedway star every week 3000 people of going to turn up, they have to get the product out to the people in the towns and villages, TV and media involved, get a well known local personally to open the track. If its coming back work hard to keep it and for heavens sake dont lose it again. One other thing dont do a Leicester and put together a team that didnt do well at home in the first season, put a team in place that will win the first 6 home matches at least, build up the fan base by having a winning formula from the very first meeting.
