The programme last night was a standard 2026 edition.

A JBA sized error? [It sounded plausible]

It'll soon be Market Harborough Town

It's those 'Heated Rivalry' vibes

I think we know what (Carmarthen) Dragon Dean Felton thinks and if (speedway) Lord (Tim) Sugar has a view I'm sure he'll find a way to communicate it.

No - but he rides in the Polish league for Landshut

Don't panic - we've got Harry Reknapp on board 😳

Are you sure they come in under 37.00. And what is JHB's assessed average?

Both Swedish and Danish teams do this. Typically the free meeting gets around double the usual crowd. Not sure that there is much evidence of increased crowds, but some teams do it every year so there ust be some perceived benefit.

Armando is writing the citation for the FIM Peace Prize as we speak. 🥇

3/9 at Reading (Junior 4TT): Heat 1 - reason for Chessell exclusion & Heats 7 & 11 times Ht 1 Mark Chessell exc for tapes offence Ht 7 66.3 Ht 11 72.5 Have e-mailed you re Exeter second halves

And the final nail in the coffin of the Northampton venture 🤐

I think technically they didn't enter, so there was no need to pull out.

Good news KENT EAGLES SPEEDWAY 2026 After a recent management re structure, and the separation of Kent Eagle Speedway Club and Sussex Eagles motorcycle club, it gives us great pleasure to announce there will be speedway action at Iwade stadium this year. After such a successful 2025 we needed to come back for another season, and we can all breathe a sigh of relief as this will happen now. Unfortunately we are not racing under the SCB though, but will run under the NORA banner for 2026 with 6 home meetings proposed. We hope all of our fans will continue to support us for another season of awesome racing. We will be putting together an exciting team ready to do battle with our opponents. Further details will follow soon on the structure of the meetings and potential opponents shortly. Look forward to seeing you all soon. David Graveling Emily Humphrey

Hmm! 😱

Andy Hackett or Kevin Hawkins?

43, 37, 37, 36, 36, 30 and Mulford.

Yeah but they are all socialists over there! 😈

Via Tokyo (flights go over Alaska, Canada, North Pole and North Atlantic.)

Sounds familiar: https://www.sportcal.com/pressreleases/bsi-announce-acquisition-of-reading-speedway/

It's the Birnam Wood Badgers who are the mystery 6th team isn't it?

Sticking with Tim

Seems unlikely to be an issue. The stadium has been there for 60+ years. I can't see speedway needing separate permission. Conditions restricting use tend to be a feature of more modern stadiums.

Does that mean he's no longer French?

70/71 close season: Allied Presentations swapped the licences as they ran both tracks. Reading inherited Michanek, Curtis, Gifford and Lovaas. Newcastle then promptly relocated to Sunderland for 4 years.
