The Sunderland Stars were a motorcycle speedway team who raced at the Sunderland Greyhound Stadium from 1971 until 1974 in the Britrish League Division Two when Len Silver acted as promoter on behalf of Allied Presentations Ltd.[1][2] Speedway was operational at the venue for part of one season when eight meetings were staged in 1964 under the "Saints" nickname.
The Saints introduced Aussies Jim Airey and Gordon Guasco to British Speedway during 1964.
[6] In November 1974, Ian Thomas bought the defunct Sunderland licence and transferred it to re-form the Newcastle Diamonds.
