Gert Handbag Posted Friday at 09:45 AM Report Share Posted Friday at 09:45 AM (edited) A local YouTube historian, "A walk with Phil" has produced a video of the site of the old stadium. He has also walked what would have been the old track. Phil, by his own admission, only went to Dudley Wood once but produces many videos of the black country, referencing what used to be on the sites in days gone by. I've enclosed a link, hopefully some Heathens fans and speedway fans in general, might find it worth a look.

tyretrax Posted Sunday at 03:57 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 03:57 PM Back in the day I used to run the supporters bus to away meetings, I also led the war cries. After a victory at Cradley I jumped up on the dogtrack wall to lead the chant, I got as far as Give me a T.....and a big Heathen grabbed me and launched me over the Tigers supporters. Sad that they demolished the Leaning House of Dudley opposite the stadium, I've got a photo somewhere of the Glasgow supporters in a line leaning on the gable end of it. Happy days. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Grachan Posted yesterday at 08:36 AM Report Share Posted yesterday at 08:36 AM Fascinating video. Interesting that they kept the shape of the track with the road layout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I said, he isn't a big speedway fan. It was Pat Foley who christened it Scotsmon Bonk, I think?? Is there any news on the new land that the planners were approached with? I'm guessing it isn't good news if it is all quiet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The local council are apparently not in favour but as i have said, when are council officers ever in favour ?. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
