Cue Ball

And the rain came down Its raining about a mile from the stadium and forecast doesn’t look too rosy for the rest of the day. Given the weather the past few weeks, not sure how much water the track will take

Just got home after a nip and tuck match - thought Sheffield had done enough to throw away what looked at various points to be a routine win, between engine failures and a fall when in points scoring positions, and Tai having a bad night I feared the worst… but hats off to the Holder brothers, they did the business when they had to. Not the most exciting meeting racing wise, but the scores being within a couple of points all night kept it interesting.

Wondering if the football clash has been spotted, can’t remember us trying to run against them previously. There won’t be any parking for a considerable distance around the stadium which will put a lot of people off, as well as people being conflicted with wanting to attend the footy

Think it is the lottery result putting me off. Not bothered about spending £50+ to watch follow my leader in the rain just for the sake of it - much as I want to get my first meeting of the season under my belt!

Is there no topic started for this one because the weather forecast is pants or due to lack of interest?? For those travelling from Sheffield, Snake Pass has been closed this afternoon for an accident, presume it will be open tomorrow but worth checking in the morning

3 former Sheffield riders and a Pole who will be used to a big track, plus Chris Harris. Doubt it will be a walkover if it’s on

Not going to lie, I can’t make it on Thursday so selfishly wouldn't mind a cancellation

Fingers crossed that the weather doesn’t play a part tomorrow and that he gets a deservedly large crowd

Tough choice between Tobi and Jack, personally would prefer to watch the former and don’t think there is much between them average wise

It was Tai

Twenty past 5 and still no rain (save for a few drops that you would struggle to call rain) a mile from the track

Just an observation/opinion

Trying to decide if Doyle is fast because he is great or is just fast because he has no regard for anybody (including himself)! Think I’m going with the latter, seems to be riding the absolute ragged edge. How Frick stayed on in heat 13 is beyond me

Hadn’t spotted that Lewi had gone to Leicester - can’t be too much bad feeling to go to another Bates owned team. Presume it was part of the plan

Did I hear Tai correctly in saying that one rider had declared that he was taking a week’s holiday (presumably Ellis) and another (presumably Kerr) walked out on Monday which forced the team changes? Some good racing tonight despite the scoreline
