With Harris and Holder there, going to try my best to get to this.. Should see some good action.

 

Be interesting to see crowd numbers.. I much prefer a Sunday evening and much easier to get to, plus more chance of higher amount of away fans. But, will see what the public of Scunthorpe prefer!

MEETING POSTPONED

 

Why? Unlike you not to give a reason

Why? Unlike you not to give a reason

 

Coz I hadn't written it at that point

 

Here goes:

 

 

PLEASE NOTE that tonight’s meeting at the Eddie Wright Raceway between the Henderson Insurance Scunthorpe Scorpions and the Peterborough Panthers has been postponed.

 

The forecast is very poor for this evening. While we thank fans for their patience last Sunday, we didn’t want to put them through that experience twice within a week. Sunday’s late heavy hailstorm was unexpected (certainly to that extent) – but tonight’s rain is predicted. We hope everyone appreciates the early call-off.

 

We will advise a re-staging date in due course.

Cancelled because of the threat of rain what a joke are you sure Scunthorpe want to race and try to recover the 18 point deficit. Still waiting to use my rain off ticket from the previous attempt . Today is 22nd of September are you going to rearrange this meeting as at this rate it could be the Boxing day cup.

Are you having a laugh? So you think it's better to call the meeting off at 7.30pm rather than 12.30pm?

 

All the best

According to "Scunthorpe Weather" on the good old tinternet at 18-00hrs theirs a 6% chance of rain increasing to 13% at 21-00 hrs. Scunthorpe have raced with a lot worse weather forecast than this. Is it that some of the Peterborough team and our "wet weather" specialist does not want to race???

O/K then it's a lovely warm sunny day here not a cloud in the sky , so please tell me is it overcast around Scunthorpe have you had any rain today .

Peterborough didn't cancel the meeting , you'll have to look closer to home for the answer.

Rob G pays for an additional forecast which is usually very accurate. A couple of weeks ago it's why he pressed ahead with Scunny v Edinburgh despite the BBC and Met forecasts suggesting it had little chance. As usual, his pay-forecast was the accurate one and the meeting took place, while both Sheffield and Buxton were called off.

 

All the best

Two miles from the track and currently dry with sunny clouds, although much cloudier in last half hour and grey clouds in the distance. Time will tell which forecast will be correct.
