cityrebel 2,960 Posted January 29, 2018 It's definitely going to be a lot harder for me to get to rye on a Wednesday night. Apart from 2000, the rockets have always been a weekend track. No doubt attendances will suffer. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
hammer1969 413 Posted January 29, 2018 Did bring a smile to my face. I agree with you I think attendance will suffer. I'm in the fortunate position of being retired so work commitments will not be a problem but I've found in the past that travelling from East London to Rye during the week takes much longer, I will probably have to leave a lot earlier and risk the fish and chips for my meal - on second thoughts I may bring sandwiches. Seriously I hope week night meetings don't lead to the demise of Rye House we've lost too many teams already. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

On the subject of food, I have found the sausages, burgers and chicken with chips all nice but not tried the fish as I am not keen on fish. One thing not to relie on is the pub outside which informed me one evening that they were not selling food until after the speedway started as the speedway fans cluttered the place up! That was the last time I went in there! Due to my own circumstances I am very pleased that racing will be midweek as I am busy on Saturdays and would not be able to see any speedway if they ran on Saturdays!

bruno 1,790 Posted January 30, 2018 The fish in about 2010/11 was superb but think they catch it out the river nearby now. Not good the last couple of times I've had it Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

For me midweek is better, these things will even out I'd imagine. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

hammer1969 413 Posted February 1, 2018 Scott Nicholls just posted a short statement on his twitter re the ruling of doubling up it makes interesting reading - wondering if it will have any affect on his decision about riding for Rye - sincerely hope not.

Chairboy 77 Posted February 2, 2018 Now that Shanes has been announced by Poole, am I right in thinking that RH are the only Premiership team yet to complete? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
