DAVID NORRIS FAREWELL 15th May 2010

from the Argus by Brian Owen

David wants his farewell meeting to be the start of a bright new era for Eastbourne Eagles.

The club’s record points scorer will officially say goodbye to racing on Saturday, May 15 (7.30pm).

He is already lining up some big names for what will be an individual meeting at Arlington.

As well as marking the end of Norris’s 21-year career, the fixture will also be the last to be staged by the Eagles on a Saturday night.

Eastbourne will switch to Thursday racing in June and Norris said: “Maybe it’s a new beginning as well. It’s not intentional that I’ve got the last Saturday meeting but I suppose it’s quite fitting.

If Eastbourne go on from this in the right direction and make a fresh start, I’ll be delighted. Norris, now working as an electrician, would have loved to be given the first meeting of the season.

He said “This is my second choice of date and it works out well. There’s no GP that weekend and there are a couple of Elite League meetings on the Friday so people will be in the country and hopefully I have the chance to get some good riders.

“The month of May is also pretty sparse in terms of fixtures at Eastbourne so hopefully people will be keen to turn out for this one.

MATEJ ZAGER signs

Matej Zagar has revealed how he fell back in love with British Speedway. 

The Slovenian national team captain formally put pen to paper for 2010 in a brief visit to Sussex where he met Bob Dugard. 

Matej hopes to complete his first full season in the Elite League after his term with Reading Racers. 

He did not ride in the UK during 2008 but returned to join Swindon as a temporary stand in for the injured Troy Batchelor. 

Because of his brilliant form he was kept on for the remainder of the season.

Now Zagar has been signed as Eastbourne's number 1 and said "It's a new venture which I am going to enjoy."

He admits he is more used to riding big tracks but the tight and tricky Arlington track holds no fears for him.
