If CVS could get things back up and running he would. I’ve not seen any indication he is no longer interested. 

There was a lot of bravado from CVS when he confirmed we were definitely not running after 2023, but that was enthusiasm and passion talking.  Its more i think that he is realistic now.  Getting a new venue or back into Monmore will be a long old slog with no guarantees either option would be successful. 

We're nearly three years on now and we still don't know the full story of why we were booted out, we just have hearsay and Chinese whispers to go on.

It took ten years to get speedway back on Teeside when CVS was much younger and the sport was in a better state (or by comparison to today).

Out of curiosity, I’ve checked to see if there is a Curling Forum…….and there is! Everyone seems to be very polite with nobody moaning about things like surfaces being too slick etc……Just one confused poster complaining that none of the posts have anything to do with hairdressing!

Speed skating is everything Speedway should be. I ❤️ it, just watched a great final.

I was watching the event where they were outdoors on snowboards on a kind of MotoX track going downhill, it was quite exciting and they were making great use of the drone as well... not just following the rider around at the back!

Just imagining Drew Kemp competing and pulling up when behind pointing to a mechanical failure on his snowboard!
