A few nails should do it I reckon.

And here is me thinking somebody from the BSPA did it by sticking their fingers in their ears and going ting a ling a loo.

Crikey me it's like a Victor Meldrew convention on here with Leonard Cohen providing the music. Up the bees

I think he had the one season riding for Boston in the premier league or whatever it was called then and from then on he rode for the stars. What a prodigious talent he was, I remember him riding against Ole when he would be 16/17 and pushing him all the way in his first appearance at Brandon, superb rider.

You would have to be thick or biased or both if you think that could work

Sounds like we have a d€$k swinger in town.

And listening to jeremy heavers interview ,with the things they are having to do to be eco friendly putting up temporary stands would not be meeting the green requirements .

I think if people could see progress in the proposed Eco stadium, a year at Leicester could be entertained. If it drags on beyond that then I could see it being more difficult to maintain the support. 18 months from now to sort out the planning minefield and then 9 months to build a stadium an optimistic timetable but could be done if there is a will to achieve it. Dealing with three local authorities is not ideal though . Up the bees

I think it is understandable to react to this news with a dose of cynicism due to the other tracks that have withered away. Planning consent is obviously a complicated matter and the "local need "requirement does seem potty when we have been evicted from Brandon at the end of the season. But these rules are in place to protect all of us from inappropriate developments . I am remaining positive ,as before I thought we were just going to fade away,I am sure a lot of preparotry work with the planning application has been done reading Jeremy heavers statement. Lets hope for a positive outcome but remember the realists maxim," Talk is cheap stadiums cost money" Up the bees

It's like trying to undo the Gordian knot this planning thing then if you have to be homeless from one venue before you can build a new stadium. Does explain the need for a cut off point at least. Up the bees

Great footage ,looks great doesn't it ,a home worthy of the Aces and their fantastic heritage.

Something positive at last ,fingers crossed it can progress in a timely fashion. I cannot believe a new site could be operational by 2017 but hope it can be. I Am unsure what powers cov city council or rugby borough council can assert in this matter but surely now is the time to get involved and delay the housing at Brandon until we can move to a new stadium in a seamless manner. Up the bees

Let's hope for the best. We can possibly take some solace from the fact that the Ex Garden centre opposite the stadium has had a housing development refused, but when are the various parties involved going to blink on this one. We have been kept waiting for news on a possible site for ages, fingers crossed this is the news wozzer updated us on. I am still amazed that the People behind the housing at Brandon haven't submitted an application to Rugby BC . I do have a horrible feeling we are going to fade away ,but cling on to the hope that somehow we don't, however ludicrous that is. Up the Bees.

But that does not make much business sense from Sandhu if planning consent rumbles on for several years of potential lost rent. He strikes me as a guy who wants the stadium rent on Friday and money from the land sell off on the following Monday. Once outline planning is permitted there is plenty of time to evict motor sports for vacant posession. Still wait and see I suppose , positive news on a new site would be most welcome Up the bees.

What I don't understand is this Why the haste to shut down Brandon after this season when there is no planning application placed with rugby BC?

About turn !

The BSPA like this one, underwater soot juggling, makes a change from rule unknotting.

Pictures and story on the bees website now for little boy blue.

That's an impossible timeframe unless we are on a priority pass for planning permission with no neighbours for 5 miles. And Nick knowles as construction manager.

What are you Raven on about?

Peter Karlsson or Fingers North not a lot else, from past seasons Patrick Hougard or Simon Gustafson but the only real gem would have been Michelsen as far as I can see. But I assume North will be at Swindon or staying in Oz and if he stays in the Southern Hemisphere Michelsen might well be in Wiltshire.

And they have had to reinforce the pit wall for (raging bull)Josh Bates

TheThing is with Newman,he rides the best in the play offs and outscores his opposition bloody little pain in the ass.

If you get Michelsen on his Swedish form you will have a very competitive side. Are there any other Aussies that can fit in?
