Ahhhhh …. Those bygone days when you could go to the Speedway or the Stockcar Races and then go into Belle Vue Funfair and really enjoy an amazing evening …. All gone now helped by the ineptitude of the Manchester Council … we had a World Class Venue … an amazing historical site … the councillors of Manchester City Council in the 1980’s should be absolutely ashamed of themselves …. It should have been declared a grade 2 listed site and saved for future generations to enjoy … I worked at Belle Vue for the best 8 years of my life …met my wife there and we’re still together 39 years later … I left before it closed down because I could see the writing on the wall … especially when Trust House Forte took over and put a bunch of Hotel Managers in charge … they couldn’t run a Piss Up in a Brewery and they totally destroyed Belle Vue …. Sad …. Sad …. Sad ….☹️😕😥🙁

After the Bradford football stadium fire,where a small fire ripped through a wooden stand so fast,many people lost there lives,many others long term injures all wooden stadiums then come into question.Most of the Bigger british stockcar stadiums were so had no chance.Unless massive ground up rebuild and investment.Alot had greyhound tracks too and animal welfare made the front pages at the time.Wasnt nice.But i still go eatbourne watch some stockcars.

It was a dinosaur, had to go, can you imagine todays crowd levels in a place like that, it had had a good run & served it's purpose well, but upkeep would have been prohibitive.
