Steve Shovlar 10,439 Posted October 14, 2013 Why it is postponed till tomorrow i cant understand, particularly going up against the England game. Still guess that's down to both promotions to shoulder the responsibility. Sky and their equipment being in place. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
mac1 0 Posted October 14, 2013 Shame its postponed. Thought the pirates might have wanted to get it all done and dusted. I was sure they would have persuaded?asked?told? the Brummies to carry on regardless as a little drop of rain never stopped them from riding at Belle Vue for 10 heats to get here..oh well.

stevebrum 6,824 Posted October 14, 2013 Sky and their equipment being in place. Makes no difference. Didn't happen last year at Poole. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Pirate Nick 1,801 Posted October 14, 2013 Makes no difference. Didn't happen last year at Poole. Poole Stadium has greyhound racing on Tuesday nights, nice try though Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
stevebrum 6,824 Posted October 14, 2013 Poole Stadium has greyhound racing on Tuesday nights, nice try though Nice try at what exactly? If its as easy as suggested why didn't SKY stay in Swindon last year in the 1st semi instead of going back a week later? 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
david2905 230 Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) The "CLOWNS" that you would be reffering to on this occasion would be birmingham and poole !!! they are the ones who have to arrange the re-staging. (oh and sky) the bspa have nothing to do with the restaging date........ .#easierjusttoblamethem #getthefacts Who cares ? doesn't make it any less unacceptable. It was mentioned a few posts ups that Poole has geryhounds on a Tuesday, I thoguht Perry Barr was likewise ?. Edited October 14, 2013 by david2905 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Well you tried to say why didn't they race on the tuesday at poole and you made it sound like another dig at poole, pirate nick explained why that didn't happen. Sky arn't going to leave all their equipment at a stadium for a week when it is probably needed elsewhere. Edited October 14, 2013 by foreverblue 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
arthur cross 492 Posted October 14, 2013 (edited) Makes no difference. Didn't happen last year at Poole. Has already made quite a difference ... the costs Sky incurred in what became 4 separate attempts to stage one of last year's Grand Final legs haven't helped the attitude of their top bosses towards any future coverage of speedway, hence their desire to catch up tonight's postponement as soon as possible given tomorrow's far better weather forecast.

BROCK 76 Posted October 14, 2013 My god, and still the whingers carry on, on this forum. Nothing is ever right. Perhaps Matt ordered the rain over the weekend because was having his hair done today and could not make it to Birmingham but can tomorrow. Just a thought, as its bound to be his fault. 4 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It was just a question for Shovlar because he seems to suggest that preparing a track would have been fine because of no rain this evening. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sherborne Green 320 Posted October 14, 2013 Brock. Don't you know by now. The rain and the fact that the meeting is off is The fault of Poole and it's management. Come on learn the lesson. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It is easy to be paranoid when 99 per cent of your posts attack Poole and i am sure Steve knows if it rains all day the track won't be raceable. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
