It was my first visit for three years, realy sad to see the genuine lack of atmosphere around the place; like a morgue.
I notice the downstairs bar's no longer open, where riders&supporters could meet up afterwards,that was always busy, closing just after 11.00pm.
I know some riders nowdays have to nip off sharpish to Stansted to catch flights to Sweden,but surely there'd be sufficient trade if it was opened up again, especially as most people have to leave that way,instead of keeping the upstairs one open-which was closed before 10.00 by the way, infact it was 10.00pm when we were asked to leave the stadium!!
I realsie that this is probably nothing to do with the speedway promotion, just posing my dissappointment at how things have developed over the years- a real shame.
