News....
Latest update on Silver Hemet line up.
Jason Garrity will take the opportunity to rest his injuries this week and therefore miss Thursday's meeting and will be replaced by Ashley Morris from Newcastle who will now have two representatives in the meeting.
"With three important matches coming up this weekend we need to give Jason as much time as possible to be fit for these very important fixtures" said co- promoter Kevin Keay.
This week's bad weather has lead to a number of rearranged fixtures and difficulties in rider availability . Lewis Kerr has now accepted another guest booking and his replacement will be announced shortly.
The end of season function tickets which are selling quickly, will shortly be able to be purchased online via the club ' helpline'. Further details will be added to the club website soon.

Many thanks for the info Kaz bear. I am truly not trying to be pedantic, but part of me seems to believe, the Stadium silver helmet was reintroduced, in 1968. I seem to believe the winner was Geoff Ambrose and it became a regular annual feature, after that. However it was a long time ago and I could be talking a load of sh**e. |
