Inclement weather = the rain that had already fallen and that had apparently caused the back straight to be under water yesterday morning. I’ll be honest, I’m not sure what your argument is or what point you’re trying to make. It rained heavily in Sheffield on Wednesday, Wednesday night and again on Thursday - what is your issue with this?

It was nothing to do with any forecast for yesterday. The decision was made based on the rain that had ACTUALLY fallen during the preceding 24 hours.

But you won’t accept the posts from people living in Sheffield explaining how much rain we’ve had over the last 24-36 hours, nor the opinion of the promotion that the track was unfit this morning and that given the forecast of more rain this afternoon - which came - that the chances of it being fit for racing this evening we’re slim to none? I’m sure if you ask nicely someone will send you a photo so you know we and they were not lying.

It rained heavily in Sheffield most of yesterday, last night and again this morning. Apparently the back straight was under water today. Pretty sure this wasn’t a “financial decision”.

Indeed and I’m looking forward to it. I like the idea of the single reveal. Interested to see what the club does tomorrow evening. And I don’t think they’ve done a single 1 to 7 reveal before, but I’ll stand corrected.

Very true! I’m still waiting for those in the know to post the Sheffield team that was common knowledge weeks ago. Which is strange given how vehemently they criticised Sheffield for not announcing it because they already knew it.

Oh I don’t know, maybe because it’s what they want to do. That said, have you made a complaint to the club about not announcing riders earlier than they want to?

Oh come, everyone “who knew” knew this already…..it was common knowledge weeks ago

That’s the only reason I read this forum….

No, I was talking about the fans (Peterborough fans, I think) who seemed to think that the 2022 Sheffield team was common knowledge and the club should have announced it already. Strangely when challenged none of them could actually name the team (despite it being common knowledge)

Exactly that. I’m intrigued by the negative and critical opinions of fans of other teams in response to how my team chooses to announce its new team for 2022. However, as opinions are allowed on this forum you won’t have any problem with me expressing mine.

Haha - no. I’m just a fan who’s intrigued by the negativity and criticism made by fans of other teams of my team.

Yep, common knowledge and yet you can’t name the team….I’m guessing this is because you don’t actually know it. However I’m intrigued as why a fan of another team feels the need to venture into the Sheffield thread and criticise the way the club makes its team announcement for 2022. Have you nothing better or constructive to do with your life?

There you go again with the “everybody does” and yet you’re wrong (again). I love surprises and will happily wait for Christmas Day. Bit boring if you know in advance.

Still waiting for the Sheffield 2022 team mate - seen as it’s common knowledge I’m sure you can share it with me……
