    I see that the reason given is because England are playing football on those nights which, alongside the Covid restrictions, will mean a low attendance.

    That makes no sense. If they can't even meet the restricted figure because the football is on then Covid restrictions can't have anything to do with it.

    I think there is more to this than just the football,covid!

    Like....the weather coming up,tannoy problems (continued problem for a while now),getting injured rider back and get another signing in...IMHO? :D:t::rolleyes:

    p . s.....also these fixtures are now re-arranged hopefully when more can go!

    Not a bad meeting. The crowd was down on last week, but that was to be expected with so many rain off tickets being used for the Glasgow match. Next week they go up against England on the box. It will be interesting to see how many people choose football over speedway. Central park for me!

    Sure the Crump factor had something to do with it (was for me)....good point about next week....never a good thing to do go against TV football! :blink:

    Congratulations to the Kings on their first CL victory. Likewise i didnt attend as i didn't rate the opposition much but as it happened it turned into a well balanced affair. Two heat leaders and two decent scoring reserves pushed Kent hard and there will be bigger tests to come. Both sides benefitted with good guests and carried riders throughout. Sadly Jake choked his lines but still feel like he is going to replace Hurry sooner rather than later. 

    Agree much bigger tests to come...this is why Kent need to be much stronger IMHO.

    Well done Kings for first win....did not look good for most of the meeting.

    I did not go as I did not find the fixture so attractive without Crump and the Kent team is in need of a bit more strength.

    Scotty is top class and as worrall showed last night we need another heat leader.Yet to see Heeps but still think we need another one.

    Starke battles well for his points and I really like Ben (as a rider and really nice bloke).

    Dan did well as sure he was still feeling the effects of his crash last week!

    But I really cannot understand Hurry in the team...watched him against Glasgow last week and makes me very nervous watching him.He struggled again last night and that was at Home....away will be even harder?

    Wonder how many points Kent would have to play with for replacing Bacon and Hurry?Believe we was well below points limit at the begining?

    Have to say after really looking forward this....came away really disappointed.

    Nothing to do with the result...Glasgow by far the better team and deserved the four points.But the track was really tricky at the beginning (for whatever reason/reasons) and that led to losing another two riders injured!!!!

    Another meeting that was long and drawn out,riders breaking tapes and it takes so long to get the race on again.Did not help having R/R and replacing the injured riders.Just seemed to be so much hanging around...I left before the end and surprised they beat the curfew?

    Have to say Scotty is pure class and his ride to get Hurry 2 points in Heat 6 was a real team player and leader.

    Watching Hurry is very nervous thing to do after all his injuries etc....Starke and Bacon showed glimpses of what they are capable of and Ben battled for his 7 points.But not having Heeps and losing Dan early was curtains.

    Really need another Heat leader to take pressure off Scott...otherwise can only see bottom place for Kings.

    I am not going today,but will give my prediction.

    Think Royals overall strength will see a victory.Knight will score well,but Kent with Kingsley,Gilkes and Rob will be decisive.

    I went to Frittenden grasstrack yesterday and young Mulford looks so stylish and promising.

    So I will go for 48-42 to the Royals...then again I could be miles out!:D
