To all involved in British Speedway. As you may have read by now through club statements it is with deep regret that I have had to pull out of competing in British Speedway in 2021, due to the current situation with regards to Covid19, there can be no guarantees regarding the number of meetings that will take place and unfortunately this has cost me my place in British Speedway for 2021 It is a simple case of not being in a position to afford to race professionally after the financial losses of 2020, as an Aussie I am unable to support myself financially in the UK as Visa restrictions do not allow me to work other than race Speedway, and therefor if the season of 2021 is cancelled then I can not guarantee that I would be in a position to return home, plus even if I managed to get home there is a compulsory quarantine at a cost of around $3500. It is extremely disappointing that I will miss the 2021 season, I believe I have improved as a rider over the past few seasons and still believe that I have the ability to play a key role in British Speedway, I genuinely enjoy all aspects of being able to compete in British Speedway and I will be spending all my time throughout the remainder of this year to come back in 2022, please understand that having to take a year out of racing is not what any rider wants to do but I want everyone involved in British Speedway to understand that I am 100% committed to British racing when circumstances allow. I still have a long journey ahead in this sport and racing in the UK is a key aspect of this journey. I want to wish everyone a safe and enjoyable season in 2021, and I will see everyone soon. All the best, Jake Allen.

Hi Folks, Bit of a long shot here.. but does anyone know the best person to get in touch with regarding Weymouth DVDS from 2005 to 2010 please? Many Thanks SD

I have a wroclaw one you can have, pm me

Have heard a rumor, (and I must stress its a rumor and could be a load of boll--s) that Theo Pijper may not be returning to the side in 2k21

Very enjoyable meeting, and good to catch up with some mates who i've not seen since the ben fund... Congrats to the Lion Cubs who were deserving winners... Would say the attendance was around the 700-750 mark.. Best wishes to Tom Spencer

With the postponement of the 2020 Season, I have spoken with Mr Godfrey, and Pete Ballinger of Clean Cut Sports, and we are able to bring you a mini series, on our facebook page, 2012: Road to the title, with details of the first match coming in my next post. For those that don't have facebook, if I get a free 10 minutes this week, I'll set up a YouTube page that the meetings can go on to

Some action on Scunny's facebook page for Scorpions and Bandits fans coming on Friday to enjoy

Live on Scunthorpe Speedway facebook page, around 7pm ish tomorrow... Many thanks to MKJ Vids for their assistance in the stream

Scunny defo, I'm a track marshal, and can't go, even if its to wave a flag

Looking forward to watching it!

Also, Scorpions fans - if I can get some footage of past meetings from the EWR downloaded onto the laptop, would anyone be interested in me showing them on the Scunthorpe Speedway facebook page?

I asked about the possibility of getting the DVD, but (to no surprise with Redcar being embarrassed to lose to Scunny) 'it wasn't filmed'

Redcar showing the league match between the Bears and the Scorpions from July 2018 tomorrow on their facebook and youtube pages
