tocha 308 Posted June 12, 2014 (edited) Can this fixture go ahead? Unless riders forfeit their rights to attend practice for the GP qualifiers the following day, Poole will be without Milik, Pawlicki and Janowski and Coventry, Andersen, Harris, whilst Garrity will be missing. Rye House are at Edinburgh. And if anyone is thinking guests, be aware. Options may be in the qualifiers as well. Lakeside are riding against King's Lynn the same night each looking to replace Bridger and Bjerre! Edited June 12, 2014 by tocha Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
SCB 0 Posted June 12, 2014 Makes me laugh, we have arranged for Poole to come on a Friday when there reserve is available despite his PL club being a Friday club but ours isn't! Add in GP qualifiers and arranging this meeting for this date is a bti of a cock up. I say it every year, I don't know why we have been on GP qualifier weekend.

Perhaps Coventry should consider changing their race night?? 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

TheSmiler 420 Posted June 12, 2014 I doubt they'll postpone it. They said last week they had no spare dates so will be prepared for tough meetings. It shouldn't go ahead I agree, but it looks like it will. Let's hope Coventry get there first with decent guests 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
NeilWatson 1,988 Posted June 12, 2014 The meeting will be going ahead. Bees line-up already in place and looking good! I'm sure Poole will bring an attractive and competitive team as usual. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Maybe so, but when are the powers to be going to realise that supporters want to see their own 1-7 on a weekly basis. 14 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Woz01 3,589 Posted June 13, 2014 Do riders have to be at practice for the qualifiers? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mdmc82 2,878 Posted June 13, 2014 Do riders have to be at practice for the qualifiers? No, it's their choice Some of it also depends on flights though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
CB252 1,376 Posted June 13, 2014 Could have moved it forward a day to the Thursday, but England playing in the snoozeball that night so not an option. Problem is, none of you turn up on an off night if they rearrange the fixture anyway. You've always got such brilliant excuses as to why Monday's or Wednesday's or Thursday's don't work for you! 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Its a damned if you do damned if you dont scenerio for the promotion. Fridays obviously get bigger crowds and if they feel they can still win the meeting then it would makes sense to get the meeting done especially with so few dates available. Maybe we wont be missing as many riders as we think. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
