Monarchs away match at Oxford Cheetahs has been rescheduled from next Wednesday to the new date of Wednesday 27th May.

The Championship starts for Monarchs on Friday this week as they take on Workington Comets in their first match in this year's competition. All clubs will be seeking a top four spot to qualify for the Playoffs.

It's Children's Evening this Friday at Armadale Stadium with lots of fun for all the family including a top speedway match against Workington Comets!

Monarchs number 1 Dan Thompson has sustained a broken collarbone in a crash on Monday evening which will rule him out of Monarchs upcoming matches.

What a difference a day (and a different track) makes! A total transformation from the previous evening and one of the best and (to many) most surprising results we have had for many years! A whopping 49-41 win at Ashfield shoots us on to six points to top the group and we await our semi-final opponents.

After a heavy defeat at Berwick on Saturday night, Edinburgh Monarchs know that in order to progress in the BSN Series, they must go to Glasgow today and win.

Monarchs went down by 57-33 at Berwick tonight, and thereby lost the bonus by a margin of 87-93. The only favourable thing to be said is that Kye Thomson put on a brilliant show as he maintained his great form of this season – he won four races and was involved in some thrilling action.

Two unbeaten riders and plenty of points for all of the top five was the pleasing situation for the Monarchs tonight as they recorded a very convincing win by 54-36 against Berwick.

After starting the season with two consecutive home draws, Edinburgh Monarchs will need a home win over Berwick Bandits this Friday as they seek to qualify for the BSN Series play-offs.

The Scottish section of the BSN series will be decided over the three matches at the weekend, and Monarchs are in all of them – Berwick visiting Armadale on Friday, Monarchs heading to the borders for the return on Saturday and then going to Glasgow on Sunday afternoon. The good news is that Paco Castagna will be leading the side in spite of his spectacular crash last Friday.
