lbw 869 Posted May 18, 2022 Each club should have a field next to it and av cows grazing in it. When cows sense rain they lie down to keep a patch of grass dry Who needs Michael Fish! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Trouble is if you rain off early, you should have waited and if you wait and the forecast is right then why did you not rain it off earlier. according to the fixture list, Poole has no meetings on 15th or 29th June 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Just look at the play offs last year. People dont go to watch in those crappy october evenings but speedway never learns The November ones are better than the October ones! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
lbw 869 Posted May 18, 2022 (edited) Pools Panel Result: Pirates vs Bandits Home WIN 56-34 If you had a system like this then no need for a rearranged meeting. Yes more in depth calculations wud be needed. Cricket as a solution for rain effected matches with duckworth/lewis. Only rearrange play off & KO Cup meetings. Riders not like it tho coz they not get paid. Bugga Edited May 18, 2022 by Turnip Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Hindsight is a wonderful thing. I am sure the management are gutted that it looks a hasty decision. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
