racers and royals

Gaming international quote from the article " The company says a new, modern stadium is important for its business and for the economy of Swindon. It said: “The stadium fails to offer the contemporary facilities needed to maintain its commercial viability. “Opportunities for support and investment have been lost to other sites in Swindon and competing stadiums in the region are now starting to draw trade away.” I would ask where are the competing stadiums in the region ?

No decision yet, as far as i can see about what MA are going to do about re-staging the abandoned Kurri Kurri round 1 today.

Today`s 1st round delayed by an hour because of extreme heat(43 C earlier) should be getting underway any minute- live updates from Lunchy here http://speedwayupdates.proboards.com/thread/19593/australian-championship-kurri-2020-30am

Maybe not but he would be a cracking signing for a Premiership team and in my opinion if he did would finish with a higher average than Nicki P

9th in Sweden and ahead of some decent riders in Poland- hardly garbage !!!!!

Not true at all(apart from Torun did get relegated) Poland https://sportowefakty.wp.pl/zuzel/pge-ekstraliga/statystyki/2019 Sweden http://old.svemo.se/sv/Grenar/Speedway/Elitserien2019/Snittlista/

Thanks- seems like a VAR line to me.

Gordon if riders are indeed free agents, is it not restrictive to that rider when the club he wants to ride for is told that the club that holds his registration will only agree if the other club buy him- in other words will not loan him to them.

The Australian Speedway authorities are doing something to help the victims. https://www.australianspeedwaychampionships.com.au/media/ma-and-kurri-kurri-speedway-club-to-support-fire-victims/

You might get more joy with Belle Vue direct as tickets. com i think provide the tools(software) for the individual teams/organisations to sell their tickets. It looks as if their office is closed until Jan 13th however you could email the general admin manager christine.simcock@bellevue-speedway.com who might look at her email`s before then. You could also give BSI/IMG the details of the problem(as it`s linked through them) and see what they say. https://www.speedwaygp.com/contact
