Not sure I believe that one either to be honest. We’ll see.

Always helps! That’s a good base in which to start.

It’s possible, but hopefully it’s a sign that all is good and an announcement is imminent.

In all seriousness it must be all but done or pretty far down the line if they’re putting out these promotional pictures. Fingers crossed we’re nearing the end game.

With all due respect, where are they now flagrag? And now Dean is sticking the boot in too. Come on people at least give them a fair crack of the whip before writing them off as disasters waiting to happen ffs. They’ve at least shown up to keep the show on the road whilst those that lay on an excellent buffet have buggered off. Bizarre. Anyway, veering off topic here. Northampton. Can anyone upload the pics of the Holders there today? I don’t do Faceache. Edit: Just seen Haza’s post. Thank you

I dunno actually. We think along those lines because we’re part of a very very small pool of supporters that regularly frequent this forum. The vast majority of supporters that turn up at their tracks will have gotten on with their lives over the winter and been oblivious to the finer details of club sales and a new track. I’d bet there actually isn’t that many who are like kids at Christmas and want to know what they’re getting yesterday. A bigger number will be confused at there being no fixtures or season tickets on sale sure, but I’m not convinced it’ll be a dealbreaker! From a personal point of view, after a long winter I’m at the point now where I’ve missed the racing and I’m looking forward to getting up to Lynn in a few weeks to watch some Speedway.

Well, one week down of the latest two week turnaround! Will we get a sale confirmation by this time next week, or will we get another “update” of another delay? The suspenders are killing me! 😁

And if they followed Sheffield’s lead, “you buy 10 and get NONE free!!” 😁

Correct. Not everything has to be a conspiracy.

I don’t really understand people using the fact Mayfield have made cuts at GP level as a stick to beat them with. The product was haemorrhaging money left right and centre. There was hardly a queue of people lining up to take over Warner/Discovery who wanted nothing more to do with it all. Any businessman worth his salt would be making monetary cuts to stem the flow of losses. That’s just common sense isn’t it? Really don’t understand the criticism there at all.

Sheffield are “freezing” their admission price of £25. So a book of 10 meetings totals a grand old saving of, ZERO pounds! Yes, you get a few little bits and bobs thrown in, team photo, birthday card etc, but who on earth is going to lump up £250 in one hit rather than “pay as you go” for the same price?

That’s good to hear Phil. People have said on here one extra track makes little difference but I totally disagree. One more/less club in a division with a high number of clubs I agree makes little difference, but the lower number you go, the bigger difference that one club makes. A six team Premiership is far far better than a five team Premiership no matter what some naysayers will tell you. Just hope they can put something decent together team wise to make it a reasonable success. Nobody wants a weak marooned team at the bottom that everybody else is beating every week

https://britishspeedway.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2025/10/p25_issue_27.pdf Every year there is a “Final” GSA declaration. The one for 2025 doesn’t have final written on them. Are these the final GSA’s or is there other fixtures still to be added to these totals?

Not from me there isn’t. That came from the 360 podcast.

Would take that all day long. May lack heat winners and could take a few hidings at the likes of Sheffield and Belle Vue, but it’s solid and competitive and a decent effort considering how late they’ve come to the party. IF that is the side, obviously. Thought Lawson was at Northampton?

Thorssell is only 32! 😲 Genuinely thought he was in his early 40’s! Seems to have been around forever.

It’s kept a topic of conversation going right through the Winter months you’re right. Usually everything is done pre-Christmas and this forum dies a death until March.

My prediction is Ipswich scrape in to fourth, then bring in Doyle at the very least when other leagues shut up shop and pi$$ the play offs 🤪

As it stands and with the rumoured team, I’d Fuc***g take him in a heartbeat! 😁

If it is then they won’t be taking much this year in terms of gate receipts that’s for sure 😂

No. Why didn’t they do that in the previous two seasons then? Doyle has been hitting 9+ averages for donkeys years! And Emil was only ever here for a short stint. Lowering their averages makes zero sense. They’re in decline.

11.27 left for final two. An eight point number 1 looks unlikely then.

That could have harmed negotiations though TTT. He was never going to release an update until the ink was dry on the agreement, which came yesterday.

Someone else has just said that also, but neither of you know that. The fella who I’m not going to name, can be a very awkward customer. It’s entirely possible the goalposts would have been moved when someone other than Chris Louis was negotiating the lease.

Aren’t you excited to see what team of undesirables and misfits they’ve managed to cobble together? 😁
