  1. Im sure its about stocks, but a lot of rumours down my way at the moment.
  2. There is an announcement about Arlington Stadium at 12pm on Wednesday. Could be stocks...
  3. Having been privy to the figures of Eastbourne's final season under Ian Jordan its not so bad. They had a base figure of 600 and a floating 200, so 800 guaranteed each week. Also well over 1000 four times in half a season, Ian Jordan made a lot of mistakes but speedway could be a sport at the Arlington raceway that could exsist if run. The main issue is they will only get income from gate money and sponsorship, food and drink money will go to the lease holder. Its doable, but in the top league on an off race night, I would be doubtful Nothing will happen 2027 anyway..
  4. But you quoted a potential Eastbourne side...
  5. Puts Eastie above the seventh in your view then? If of course.
  6. Doubling up has never been the issue, we had it from the 70's Doubling down from the top to below, we never had and thats caused the issues over time.
  7. And if he does ride championship, his renewed confidence.
  8. I do hope so but not hopeful at this point. All I'm told is maybe 2028 to get the sport back. We've moved on with our business plan to bring speedway back at a lower level and then build. I do hope your connections are good but just cant see it unfortunately
  9. Still cant find anything with substance apart from your post to make me think this is happening, I do hope I'm wrong but cant see it.
  10. I would also want him tested for drugs before every meeting.
  11. Yes, really cant remember Eastbourne riding on a week day and I first went in 1976 as a young child..
  12. Hi mate, I have no idea who these guys are. In the last season of racing championship the gate was about 800 hitting 1000 a few times, so support is there
  13. Manufacture, most of those fences are out of date, I think Lakeside's went to Iwade where of course it doesn't need to be tested as there are non league
  14. Chris Louis on behalf of the BSPL did approach the Dugard's a couple of years ago about the return of the sport, but like us, was told no. Things have changed now.
  15. Ball and chain may slow him down a bit..
  16. I have a gut feeling, and only that, that there is a person/people working behind the scenes wanting to take Eastbourne into the premier next season. As I said, it's only a gut feeling but I'm sure something is happening, I may be of course, completely wrong.
  17. If the fence is out of date, you can get a one year extension if approved after inspection, maybe it failed, so this could explain the late call to arms..
