What about Northampton?

Northampton best chance would be to run Sunday afternoons in the national league, allowing people to travel.

Personally I think the only chance Northampton would have of making a proper go of it is if the Save Coventry Crew (speedway side not stocks) were prepared to consider that if they ever gave up on Brandon

The save Coventry crew won't be running the speedway though Cedric from Poole will be and I can't see him being interested in Northampton or surely he would have already done something.

Yes agreed, I meant more backing the project rather than running it per se.

I wouldn't try and open Northampton whilst Brandon is still up in the air 

A large proportion of expected fans would surely come from Coventry way?

I doubt Sunday would be an option with stock cars and bangers running regular Sunday meetings throughout the year. As they also run some Saturday nights on other weekends, there wouldn't be enough time to prep the track for those Sundays either.
