When you have someone interested in the sport (Jeff Brown on BBC) it will help enormously. Tyne Tees have, in recent years, shown a lack of interest in our sport, so, as I say, be thankful they showed it at all. 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

There is a back-up plan, if next Sunday was to be a washout too, with Monday 28th as a precaution. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Can’t do next Sunday either (although Monday is a possibility). Might this mean we can weaken the team and get Ellis to guest? Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Boothers 223 Posted October 20, 2019 We won't need to weaken our team as MPT will be fit for the 2nd leg in March 2020. 1 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foamfence 2,917 Posted October 20, 2019 This is a farce, Newcastle should have to forfeit the leg or it should be declared a draw. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

How can you draw the KO Cup only one team can win that cup? I would say on this matter Newcastle speedway are NOT to blame as it was only a few weeks ago when yourselves and Eastbourne got around to completing your Legs. However in my opinion our 90th Anniversary meeting being attempted so late in the season because of the earlier cancelation is ridiculous! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
