We don't know for sure if rumours are true.

Without checking averages, availablity, or if an improvement etc, some riders without Premiership teams, Scott Nichols, Nick Morris, Connor Mountain, Steve Worrall, Declan or Zaine Kennedy, Kye Thomson, Cameron Heaps, Mitch McDiarmid, William Cairns, Fraser Bowes. I'm sure I've missed a few.

Good question. Unless I've missed it, there appears to be nothing on BSPL or Oxford's website to confirm the change. Wonder if is still to be approved.

I believe something similar was proposed a few years ago, more like a cup competition than a league. Also included Poland. Never happened though.

Why did Rowe pull out of the meeting.

Said on website Peter Mole would be there to quash certain rumours. Two rumours I've heard are ; Change of use for Owlerton stadium meaning no more speedway. Change of ownership, with current Birmingham promoter taking over. Anyone confirm if either, or both denied?

Anything interesting said at last night's STAARS meeting?

Anyone know a the new date for the Steelers v Leicester match at Sheffield? Just asking as they never seem too keen on putting stuff about the NL team on the website.

Vinnie Foord missing again for the Steelers. Was there any point signing him if he is to continually miss matches?

A 15 year old in the Premiership?

Would these costs be paid by Birmingham Speedway, or TNT sports?. I would have assumed the latter.

Seem to remember that Machin may have been a promoter at Sheffield, when the Bates family first started there. Quite sure he was also a promoter at Leicester at some point.

Had a go at doing this. Just copied the previous list, and removed the names of those who have passed on. Names now missing are Taylor, Bales, Williams, France, Louis, and Kennett. Hope I got it right, let me know if there are any errors. 01 - Arthur Payne - 28/08/23 02- Per Tage Svensson - 16/10/31 03- Peo Soderman - 29/10/32 04- Ove Fundin - 23/05/33 05 - Dan Forsberg - 25/03/34 06 - Josef Hofmeister - 17/06/34 07 Brian Crutcher - 23/08/34 8 Mike Broadbank - 25/09/34 9- Barry Briggs - 30/12/34 10 - Aage Hansen - 13/04/35 11 - Gote Nordin - 02/07/35 12 - Bob Andrews - 27/10/1935 13- Reg Luckhurst - 11/11/1935 14 - Doug Davies - 06/08/1936 15 - Sverre Harrfeldt - 23/11/1937 16- Leif Larsson - 16/02/1938 17- Leif Enecrona - 05/03/1940 18- Andrzej Wyglenda 04/05/1941 19- Jim Airey - 19/08/1941 20 - Bengt Jansson - 09/01/1943 21 - Anders Michanek - 30/05/1943 22 - Trevor Hedge - 30/08/1943 23- Terry Betts - 15/09/1943 24 - Howard Cole 29/12/1943 25 - Martin Ashby - 05/02/1944 26 - Jan Simensen - 26/07/1944 27 - Zygfryd Friedek - 19/10/1944 28 - Jerzy Trzeszkowski - 10/01/1945 29- Eric Boocock - 02/02/1945 30- John Boulger - 18/06/1945 31 - Hasse Holmqvist - 18/06/1945 32 - Jim McMillan - 03/12/1945 33 - Soren Karlsson - 23/10/1946 34- Ole Olsen - 16/11/1946 35 - Ray Wilson - 12/03/1947 36 - Doug Wyer - 16/08/1947 37 - Grigori Khlinovsky - 11/11/47 38 - Egon Muller - 26/11/1948 39 - Christoph Betzl - 13/02/1949 40- Jiri Stancl - 18/11/1949 41 - Viktor Kuznetsov - 27/11/1949 42 - Georg Hack - 20/02/1950 43- Marek Cieslak - 28/06/1950 44- Alois Wiesbock - 31/07/1950 45 Tommy Johansson - 21/10/1950 46 - Vladimir Gordeev - 30/11/1950 47- John Titman - 26/01/1951 48- Dag Lovaas - 25/02/1951 48- Jan Verner - 03/03/1951 50 - Petr Ondrasik - 08/10/1951 51- Phil Crump - 09/02/1952 52- Henny Kroeze - 11/03/1952 53 - Valery Gordeev - 28/08/1952 54 - Dave Jessup - 07/03/1953 55- Ales Dryml - 10/06/1953 56 - Scott Autrey - 09/07/1953 57 - Robert Slabon - 15/09/1953 58- Peter Collins - 24/03/1954 59- Larry Ross - 15/06/1954 60- John Davis - 10/11/1954 61- Finn Thomsen - 16/02/1955 62- Mikhail Starostin - 24/02/1955 63 - Tommy Nilsson - 10/03/1955 64 - Jan Andersson - 07/05/1955 65 Kai Niemi - 15/09/1955 66- Jerzy Rembas - 18/04/1956 67- Chris Morton - 22/07/1956 68- Steve Bastable - 16/09/1956 69- Bruce Penhall - 10/05/1957 70- Karl Maier - 24/08/1957 71- Roman Jankowski - 05/10/1957 72 - Bo Petersen - 21/02/1958 73- Les Collins - 24/05/1958 74 - Mitch Shirra - 27/09/1958 75 - Michael Lee - 11/12/1958 76- John Cook - 18/12/1958 77 - Dennis Sigalos - 16/08/1959 78 - Erik Gundersen - 08/10/1959 79- Hans Nielsen - 26/12/1959

Someone mentioned it on one of the threads on this forum. I certainly have not heard anything definite about dogs. Stock cars must be correct as it's on their website.
