But then I'm just an old codger, so what do you expect? Here you go probably when the sport was near its peak how it missed Bruce Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
old bob at herne bay Posted 2 hours ago Report Share Posted 2 hours ago I have to say Wembley, in its later years wasn’t the greatest track for racing ! To be fair with the modern style of speedway , the Manchester raceway is the best track for racing that has been used in the UK. As a “stadium” honestly Wembley has to be the best - with its huge capacity and atmosphere, and ability to handle the huge crowds. manchester is only half a stadium and has little atmosphere in comparison with industrial units surrounding half the site, and poor crowd capacity leading to high ticket prices. Glasgow is mooted - good track but again poor crowd capacity leading- high ticket prices . with a 6 team premier league lucky to have 2 GPs in the UK tbh. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

foreverblue Posted 1 hour ago Report Share Posted 1 hour ago Part of the enjoyment was the whole city seemed to embrace it and people were talking about it everywhere you went. Also you could guarantee it would be on although the drainage and facilities at the NSS seem to be so good the meetings there are rarely affected. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
