I've just found out that this is off (when I opened my copy of the SS...when it's busy at work I don't get on here much).

I've got my sons coming home this weekend for this meeting reading the article just makes me feel crap. The usual mealy mouthed "we want to apologise to travelling fans" insincerity...it's unprofessional and depressing. 

It shouldn't matter who is riding in this meeting,  it's not the point...run it as a Stars of Tomorrow or something.

A dismal end to a dismal season.

But then the crowd would be terrible and it wouldn't achieve what its set out to do

In this case id say so yes.. what good would an empty stadium do anyone? there is a cost to  running these meetings

maybe but not enough to cover the costs of running which would devalue the meeting... better to wait until a better field can be assembled

I think it says it all that there were not enough experienced riders prepared to turn out, even in very early October. Beyond disappointing to me.
