Evening ScampiSpeedway, I don't normally comment on here but thought it was worth clearing this one up. The meeting will definitely go ahead, all the necessary clearances and checks were carried out long before the match was announced. Seven former Diamonds with a combined average just under this years points limit, hopefully this will give the Bears a strong challenge leading into the season and be an exciting team for the Geordie fans to cheer on.
There's two reasons for us not giving this much hype yet, first is we don't want to in anyway overshadow Robbo's meeting the week before. Second is it is far too early, any hype created now wouldn't be sustained.
As for financing the meeting, we have six outstanding sponsors from Newcastle making this happen and we can't thank them enough.
Hope that clears it up and hope to see you there
