Very poor from BSI, there are bound to be people who either cant or dont want to go to the re-arranged date. BSI need to understand that people bought their tickets in good faith about seeing a meeting. Had the meeting been called off due to the weather I suppose they have an argument but not under these circumstances, as I say very poor IMO. Maybe if their contact wasn't coming to an end they would care a bit more. 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Add to that, the BLRC used to be held in October at Hyde Road stadium, and that is only a few hundred yeards down the road - same weather patterns.. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I ve twice been at wet meetings there, one where the rain was torrential pre meeting, and had a couple of heavy downpours during the meeting. The racing was as good (if not better then some mega hot days) as any of my other visits. I dont have tickets but wouldn't think twice about travelling even if the forecast was ropey, if I did have.

racers and royals 8,717 Posted April 19, 2020 Poland really pi$$ed off at the FIm/BsI for the scheduled Daugavpils semi`s on September 25/26th weekend as it`s play-offs. Belle Vue date isn`t such a problem as season should be over by then. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
