Oh yeah, I'm seriously minted!!
Got my free England vuvuzela on Saturday from Tescos, courtesy of the Sun newspaper... What a disappointment is is... Bleedin' thing is so flimsy and blowing into it requires lungs the size of a hot air balloon, which for an ex smoker (7 months and counting) ain't ideal!!
What is the Millenium Stadium policy on air horns you blow into as opposed to the gas canister type?
I've got an England one from the last Euro Championships, about a foot long... I s'pose I could hide it down my trouser leg, but then it'd probably attract attention
Spot on Mr Bramble...It takes a Rye House fan to get to the point.
It amazes me that the usual suspects on here seem to think they know better than ex riders who have years of top class speedway experience behind them.
Just watching the re run on SS4
Did Nigel Pearson really say that Somerset fans can breathe a sigh of relief as Lubos Tomicek isn't as badly injured as first thought?
I'd wager they have their fingers crossed hoping he misses their next home meeting
Bleedin' disgrace... I'll be smuggling my drink in this year and certainly won't be buying anything to eat in there... I refuse to pay the over inflated prices they charge in the Millenium Stadium... I couldn't believe what they were charging for a simple bottle of water AND they removed the cap before allowing me to walk away.
They're not the same place are they?
Crystal Palace Athletics Stadium stands on the site of the old Crystal Palace dirt track.
I'm not 100% sure, but I assume that the track at White City Stadium in London was partly laid on top of the athletics track?
Stanley Stadium was not far from the end of the M62 motorway, pretty close to the city Centre.
The last speedway meeting was in 1960 (they were then known as the Pirates), but greyhounds ran until the end of 1961.
The stadium no longer exists and is now the site of a fruit and veg market.
No reason was given for closure, but eight points from eighteen meetings in their final season tells it's own story.
