Sheffield - for sale


Recommended Posts

Hopefully someone can be found to buy the club- last thing thr sport needs is another well established clubs lost like so many others- although I'm sure there's a good amount of Ipswich fans that'd be glad to see us go under...

Regardless of what supporters of some other clubs might think of Sheffield, this sport needs this club. Hopefully they will have a buyer, but let’s face it, owning a speedway club will never be anything other than an extremely expensive hobby. Say what you like about the top hatted badge seller, but he will plough money into the sport and does not appear to be deterred by failure. As a speedway fan I see this as yet another kick in the b4lls for British speedway. Going on previous posts by PhilTheAce, he does seem to have reliable inside information, so hopefully there is a willing buyer prepared to take over. The talk on this forum is of possibly one big league next season. At the moment, one ‘who ever is left’ league would seem more appropriate.

Sad to hear this.

Let's all hope that a credible new owner will pick up the reins.

Lost my track 51 years ago now - Sunderland 'Stars' so I know how you Sheffield Fans are feeling at the moment.

You have to take your top hat off to whoever buys it! 

Well you were a co director at Brum so would have more of an idea than most of us 🫠, the rumour has been around for a few months now and he is good friends with Drillerman, my only surprise is that a deal has not already been done, which throws a little doubt as to why hats have not been doffed already, unless it's because Mrs Tophat  prefers him to take a year out.

Fingers crossed Nigel Tolley keeps Sheffield Speedway alive, Don't want to see the Sport in this country lose another club.

Hope to hear some positive news in the near future.

Sad News.

Whoever is interested will surely want too know what is in the pipeline for next season before even thinking about becoming involved and investing in the sport.( might well know already though).BSPA have more secrets than the Masonic Lodge.
