We did it! We actually got a pretty full season in this year amid all the Covid madness.
It's been a challenging year for Speedway and the news coming in the last few days regarding more club losses, show it will be challenging going forward but I for one, am glad that we did at least see speedway action this year and eventually, with spectators present without number restrictions.
It hardly seems possible that we have completed our seventeenth season providing updates, never in my wildest dreams or thoughts did I think we would still be here doing this all these years later after my first (very) tentative pressing of the button to activate the site, blimey the plan had been for a few weeks at most! The fact we are still here and people (apparently) still want to read what we put, is testament to the amazing team that put up with my moaning, stressing, nagging and badgering between March and October, without them, this site would fail in a rather spectacular fashion.
The team this year have been even more stellar than usual as things personally have been difficult for me after the death of my father last November and my new role of trying to combine working, looking after my mum who after being married to my dad for 60 years, found things and life very difficult to cope with, dealing with my own medical issues and the administration of this site. They have been absolutely amazing to be honest, ready to step in and help out at a moments notice and I will never forget and I am truly thankful and grateful for the support they have given me.
And thankyou to you, the people for whom we do this. You are the reason we do it and without you and your continued support of our endeavours we wouldn't be looking at our 18th season next year.
So thankyou everyone and see you next season!
Sue

Sue A big thanks to all the people on here that make this happen it goes without saying that it would be pretty dull only being able to follow your own team each season through your local media etc. The banter and presentation here is tops so keep up the great work and a big thanks again for your efforts, stay safe everyone and hopefully will catch you all again next season Finally Iād like to say what a great bunch of supporters the Tigers fans were at Poole last night I hope you enjoyed the evening and all made it home safely you done your team proud šš
