Best wishes to Michael for the future. With cross party support for the reinstatement of Brandon, we hope Rugby Council Members see through to fruition those foundations and fulfill the overwhelming wishes of the local community to see speedway & Stox racing return to Brandon.

Michael Moran, Leader of Rugby Borough Council is standing down next month. Earlier today he posted the attached on Facebook. On behalf of thousands of Speedway and Stox fans , I thank him for laying the foundations for the return of the sports to Brandon.

Thank you to the riders who wore the famous race-jacket last night, Hans as manager, Martin assisting, and to everyone who supported them.

We are still working and are optimistic that it won’t be too long before we see this again on a more regular basis.

A major boost as Rugby Council members vote overwhelmingly in favour of approving the emerging Local Plan.

This is crucial as it includes a policy which specifically designates Brandon as a motorsports venue.

When Bristol closed, its owners promised greyhound fans a new track. It later transferred operations to Swindon. That track races for the final time today.

...in between its owner/promoter also closed Reading, Poole and Milton Keynes.

[BringBeesBackToCoventry @KeepBeesOnTrack]

For those who haven’t seen the draft version of the new Rugby Local Plan, item 9 is of significant interest.

Clearly we want to turn the vision into a reality, and work is taking place on that. We really hope you’ll see & hear evidence early in 2026.

Merry Christmas to all!

[BringBeesBackToCoventry @KeepBeesOnTrack]

@EntainGroup must be truly proud of themselves.

[Wolves Speedway @WolvesSpeedway]

💔 Truly heartbreaking to see the world’s oldest speedway track now covered in grass.

95 years of history, passion, and generations of memories have been cruelly taken away - but never forgotten.
