Mr Blobby 2,642 Posted August 19, 2016 After a a better performance on the road last night we are back at Armadale tonight against what is probably the best side in the league at the moment. Edinburgh will operating R/R for fisher. For the rebels Wells guests for Josh G, palovaara in for Allen and R/R for Wright. These changes certainly make Somerset stronger. Hopefully we can pull through and come away with a victory but the rebels will take at least a point Tonight IMO if it's on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,482 Posted August 19, 2016 Wells should prefer the silky smooth shale at Armadiddle compared to the bumps of Foxholes! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gr8scot 589 Posted August 19, 2016 Will be tough without Ryan, whereas their changes bolster them, but I hate to say that the damn Friday forecast may intervene again Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

nagy1 246 Posted August 19, 2016 It's going to be a very rushed end to the year! Are Edinburgh allowed midweek fixtures? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fromafar 10,331 Posted August 19, 2016 Desperate luck weather wise, but this situation at most clubs of unavailable riders when rearranging fixtures will have to have a better solution for next year. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
crescent girl 1,903 Posted August 19, 2016 Saturday is the alternative race day as far as I know. BSPA have alternative raceday officially listed as Saturdays at 7pm. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
george.m 3,063 Posted August 19, 2016 Unbelievable bad luck this season. Thought Embra had covers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
TheScotsman 2,482 Posted August 19, 2016 They do have covers. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
george.m 3,063 Posted August 19, 2016 So if they do, are they using them. And yes, I understand they only work before a meeting not during it if it's raining. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cyclone 943 Posted August 19, 2016 It was mentioned that lack of local able bodied volunteers when needed to lay the covers is a problem. As Armadale was the nearest venue to Edinburgh to be granted permission for speedway (after Appeal btw), it is still over 20 miles from the city centre, so that probably restricts volunteer availability.
