A Junior year in 85, then the return in 99 . Love him or hate him Ian was always a showman. Can remember a Jim Bowen (bullseye) comedy night in 85 was brilliant but could not repeat it today, due to the content 😁 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The H Man Posted January 6 Report Share Posted January 6 1 hour ago, SteveLyric2 said: I would think a brief statement of the main 'bullet points' will be issued to Speedway Star to meet their Tuesday evening deadlines, with a longer statement made available this week, As it is certain there will be 2 senior leagues, I would hope that a statement for 2026 provides a 'temporary' format solution (as its relatively short-notice) with plans agreed for significant changes in 2027. Think the SS is printed on a Monday afternoon in the winter months mate. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know what you’re saying and you make a very valid and fair point. I’m pleased to say that I have since moved away from said overly cosmopolitan area 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Unfortunately yes I can but more worryingly it’s the bunny brained idea they will have come up with to make it 5 if Ipswich don’t run Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
