Why not just accept the situation and if your really unhappy don't go again. 

What a stupid thing to say, we need more fans at tracks not less!

What kind of a club holds a interval when rain is imminent? 

Again, both your posts are stupid as you are just clearly guessing for the sake of writing something. How very sad.

Well Flagrag basically said who it was, and plenty of fans have said they could see the rain coming in the Poole took an interval are you calling all these fans liars?

That not really the answer is it most Poole supporters just want a little more openess on the situation not much to ask is it ?

FFS what kind of openness do people expect? The Poole riders gave their opinion at the press conference as to track conditions after the rain yet apparently they are not to be believed?! Not sure how many 'fans' went to the press conference and booed then!!?

What are 'fans' going to do? Boo every time Poole riders come out for a race? Oh no of course not - they won't be attending any more will they?!

Incidentally has anybody considered that having an interval of x minutes might be written into the rental agreement that the club has with the stadium owners?! If there hadn't been an interval there would have been the usual bleating from those that needed refreshment or needed to use the facilities - the latter being highly likely due to the average age of speedway fans.:P

Or maybe they thought it was only going to be a short light shower which wouldn't affect things!

In the past when rain has been properly forecast they tend to push the races through. 

Given this is how it looked at 7pm last night did any of us really expect heavy rain less than 2 hours later? Hindsight is a wonderful thing.

When you leave the track from turns 3-4 you go six feet down steps to the car park,  then the car park runs about one foot to the railway side ditch.

The water level in said ditch is approximately two feet below car park at high tide.

Making a total of Nine feet above sea level to the track.

So i am struggling to see how the tide affects the track.
