ruckerroo 792 Posted October 7, 2019 Evenly poised affair. Very tempted to attend but 100 miles for a potential rain off is a turn off. Fc seems to get nasty into late pm and worsen by dark in that area (n) Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I'm certainly not keen about a late call off, but with no chance of an alternative race night, dates are running out. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I think this will be on but may only go to 10 heats if the predicted rain comes down. As you said we are running out of time/dates. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

As you said we are running out of time/dates. Track has had a lot of rain on it and won't take a lot more however a small deficit and rusty Belle Vue will mean Kent will definitely want this one going ahead. I certainly hope its a full and fair 15 heat affair with the best side coming out on top. Nobody likes these evnts decided by contentious decisions. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

crazysue 613 Posted October 7, 2019 Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the Updates site? If so, could you please send me a private message which includes your mobile phone number Thanks Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
HGould 2,213 Posted October 7, 2019 Fair play to Len and I hope they get the meeting on and over with 15 proper races and a fair result. The weather has really drawn in last 2 weeks and I think those sides who have already finished for the season are quietly happy that they have; and those still with Fixtures to run just praying they can find a dry few days for big matches and a big crowd too to cap off their seasons. Fine margins at this time of year with Fixtures / Crowds and Weather as sadly Workington and Lakeside found to their cost last season. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

With playoffs and extended seasons,it is crazy trying to get these fixtures on in October! As S4S said the league should be sorted by end August and any Cups done after. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
