Hoping to do it
Looks odd without the Diamonds, where they replaced by anyone?
Lots of travel involved with Berwick and Scunthorpe now the nearest tracks
Was Speedway never massive in Yorkshire? Which towns and cities have lost tracks over the years?
No mention of Sheffield do they play with the big boys now?
Im guessing Hull and Bradford will have had teams at one point?

Yorkshire speedway tracks -
Doncaster Dragons/Stallions
Sheffield Tigers
Hull Vikings
Halifax Dukes
Bradford/Odsal - Boomerangs/Tudors/Panthers/Northern/Barons/Dukes
Castleford Kings (open meetings only)
Wombwell (Barnsley) Colliers
Leeds Lions
Huddersfield (4 pre war meetings only)
Only Sheffield have endured. They are in the Premier League.
Bradford/Odsal keep coming back (hopefully will again in the near future), but the rest all came and went.

Whitwood Stadium - Possibly the smallest track ever at 185 metres. I thought Plymouths track was small at 214 metres.

Yes it was tiny lol must of been early 80s they only in league few years
Im guessing most the teams went the same way as Middlesbrough with the loss of a venue?
Workington bit the dust like Newcastle?
