I've already objected, but am quite happy to add further comments.

It needs challenging, because too many people take it as fact, and believe that planning permission has been granted.

Very poor

Oxford vs King’s Lynn - Thurs April 25th

Klindt not available on Thursday so r/r or guest -
I might well agree with some of that, but if the head leaseholder doesn't want speedway that is a problem. However, I believe SCB / BSPL should have a plan in place to protect tracks before the problem occurs
-
To be fair to SCB that did object to the original Rye House application to remove the track, and they objected to the Peterborough applications. What I believe they should be doing is actively working with Councils to influence the local plans

Kings Lynn vs Sheffield - Monday 22nd April
Sir Sidney replied to SpeedwayFan91's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
Locals say it wasn't wet yesterday so cars shouldn't have done much damage). Of course, Kings Lynn could just end all the speculation by showing the track and the forecast they are relying on. -

It's not the amateur weather forecasters you need to worry about Look at what the professionals say! https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/u12k15uws#?date=2024-04-22 -

Met Office https://www.metoffice.gov.uk/weather/forecast/u12k15uws#?date=2024-04-22 -
Interesting. I'm just over two miles away from track at services and it is, at worst so far, very light drizzle. Depends on direction I guess. Fingers crossed
-
Poland and Sweden not started yet so more options maybe?
-
Yes, but only light rain until 1pm. With a dry day yesterday I'm sure the track can take s substantial amount of rain I can't see it being cancelled because of the forecast - a different matter if the rain on site is heavier than forecast
-
As ever, depends which forecast you look at. Met Office one isn't too bad currently. I guess we just have to wait and see

Birmingham v Oxford Mon 1st April PL
Sir Sidney replied to Brummies_Ste's topic in SGB Premiership Speedway League
It's used as a qualifying round for the Grand Prix rather than just an open meeting I think, so reasonable justification for him to ride in it -
Plymouth Gladiators 2024
Sir Sidney replied to jbell1995's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Is it only me that feels a tad sympathetic towards Plymouth? They sign a 7 MSN team and through no fault of their own the number 1 is injured pre season. As a result of moving to Saturday race night there are few, if any, suitable replacements. I wonder if it would have been easier to get a replacement for Tuesdays? They do a load of work on the track, and are met with a very wet winter, meaning, perhaps unsurprisingly, it hasn't dried out in time. Who'd be a promoter in a sport that is not a great money earner if not a loss maker?
