EXETER have unveiled details of their new home after they were told to leave the County Ground at the end of this season.

The Falcons will race at a new wheels centre at Westpoint Showground on the outskirts of the city. Promoter Colin Hill said: ''It''s a very exciting time for Exeter Speedway. We''ve been working long and hard on this project and it''s a wonderful site just a mile from the M5.''

STOKE skipper Paul Pickering believes teamwork is the key to their current run of success. The Potters are proving unbeatable at Loomer Road and they face Reading in their next home meeting this Saturday. Pickering said: ''We''re running into solid form at a good time The team spirit is good, most of our bike problems have been sorted and we''re covering each other well as a unit.''

MILDENHALL have been forced to change their fixture for this Sunday after the withdrawal of the Australian Under-21 squad. Now the Fen Tigers will themselves face Great Britain Under-21''s in a special challenge match. Promoter Graham Drury said: ''After speaking to the GB Under-21 manager, Peter Oakes, we felt that Mildenhall would be a strong challenge. This is not an easy option, we still have a quality meeting in prospect.''
