1973 i remember it well "carl glover" knocking both taffy owen and mitch graham off in ht 1 in the knockout cup final to beat us , and a good night at home with lou and mal getting a 5-1 in a last ht decider to beat boston .lou was the king of the second division that year.

Was that not an Ian thomas trick on john berry at hull?

Think u will find as john got older he cut down his workload , he was a good friend of the comets done alot beh8nd the scenes for them.

Would love to know john walsh's views on all this he is a fan of all 3 sports footy being tops i suspect anyone know him to ask ?

The sport wont lose fans like me been going nearly 50 yrs as for derwent park cant see us going there again, it was paulco on here who mentioned the guest situation and he's never wrong! Will make a trip up to glasgow this season aftet all u never know when it could end .

A guest for a "kid" without a bike surely the money men can afford a bike or are times getting hard.

If he dont ride he wont be sacked because "ford" and his like know the diehards will still turn up , thats why there arnt so many of us these days .

They do all have the same surname " plumber"

Good old "ian thomas" will be spinning in his grave , would luv to know what " tony mole " thinks as he looks at those pics !

Who is paying for all this surely not the we have no money reds and town?

Is that the one who said he would never work in a league against glasgow ??

Apart from beach volley ball cant think of many

Its tragic that a city the size of birmingham cant support a speedway club yet people will pay to watch womens football and rugby or worse ice hockey or basketball, no offence ladies .

Guests for a rearranged danish league match ? And they wonder why people dont turn up !

Better behind u !

Me thinks the "spoilt brat'" has got his own way !

Lets be honest he was out of control on the last 2 corners but still good to watch, can u get that channel in uk for free ?

Dont understand why its happening the new stadium is no closer the reds board wont sign over borough park so why are they moving .

Remove or reduce the straights ?

" and they wonder why crowds are falling" taking the public for mugs they think we are not very bright sparks .

He is in for hancock

Just reading the speedway star after being away working sad to see good old rolly hughes the clerk of the course has died with his funeral being on monday 13 may.a true comets fan for years RIP " ROLLY ".

Well done craig showed them what a good rider he is , now if he could just learn to sit still at the tapes lol.

Still got to laugh at mr hunters unbiased reports, the sun allways shines at the dale as it does out of each edinburghs riders a**e !

As good old ian thomas allways said,"its simple just turn left at the end of the straight"if fit to ride in poland or where ever he is fit for uk.
