kelvinht 348 Posted June 25, 2019 Thought it was a decent meeting. BV perhaps deserved a bit more, but were never going to win. Wish all meetings were run with that speed. Flowed much better! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Phil The Ace 2,853 Posted June 25, 2019 Fair play buster. The meeting done for 9pm. Fantastic stuff It was a decent meeting racing wise I thought. Result was as expected. We never looked like being in it. Fricke bjerre and bewley only ones that put up a fight. Worrall I will let off. But wells berge and lidsey were pants at best. 2 changes at least needed or we can wave bye bye to play offs Personally thought the crowd was ok last night for a Monday 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
semion 2,192 Posted June 25, 2019 The interval taken after heat 12 tells you Buster was concerned about the weather. Maybe that’s the reason he pushed it through so quickly. Either that or he was on a promise Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Trees 2,814 Posted June 25, 2019 Come on Buster if you really try you can have it all over and done with in an hour for the fans, whoopee .... NOT, some night out! I absolutely hate it being rushed, I understand last night but ....... 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gavan 5,049 Posted June 25, 2019 I still think Belle Vue will make the top 4 Kings Lynn need to find some points on the road but they are in a bit of a false position as they havent rode many matches at home Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I absolutely hate it being rushed, I understand last night but ....... you obviously have nothing better to do than hang around watching tractors going round - -15 heats is 15 heats if it’s done and dusted in 90 mins or 120 mins or longer on a Monday night I’d have thought most fans have better things to do than wait for heats to start - but each to there own 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

That was 1 hour 20 mins last night and 90 mins is ideal for me. The racing Is the entertainment after all. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Both Sunday at Peterborough and last night at King's Lynn were run at a pace that makes a meeting far more enjoyable, otherwise it's like football with waiting for the drawn out the VAR decision, it becomes boring. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Bagpuss 10,749 Posted June 25, 2019 90 minutes is spot on IMO. 4 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Rob B 1,245 Posted June 25, 2019 Racing wise it wasn't great, few single passes here and there but wasn't helped by the majority of the Belle Vue team being so poor riding round at the back. Was looking forward to heat 13 but that was gate and go too. Bewley rode lot better then his points suggest, looked fast behind and was attacking the track showing more confidence, just wasn't making starts and when finally got in front in heat 15 couldn't be touched. Although could tell they were getting on with the meeting, was pleasantly surprised to look at click driving out of car park to see it was only 9.10pm, and that was with meeting starting late too, put us out of our misery quickly.

Yes I agree, put the 2-minutes on straight after the result has been announced. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Parade was gone 19:30, I text the first heat result at 19:43. Soon as the race ended. I already wrote details out. So one would imagine that tapes up was about 19:40 10 mins late Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
