dorset delight 209 Posted June 4, 2014 What a shambles. There was a 0% chance of this meeting being completed. The Poole management only had to look at the BBC Weather Forecast. The forecast was for heavy rain during the day,we didn't get any heavy rain.The forecast is not always right 3 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

SCB 15 Posted June 4, 2014 Its not just the rules killing speedway its people like you watching on Bet365 instead of going to watch your team. Call meetings off and people will watch it online in stead. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
cityrebel 2,960 Posted June 4, 2014 Its not just the rules killing speedway its people like you watching on Bet365 instead of going to watch your team. more fool the promoters for letting bet365 stream their meetings. There is already enough reasons for fans to stop going to speedway, without giving them another one. 6 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
foreverblue 6,120 Posted June 4, 2014 Call meetings off and people will watch it online in stead.The problem is getting people in when it is obvious the meeting will not be concluded because of the forecast, in my opinion ridiculous decision to start a meeting when the forecast is so bad 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
clambo71 136 Posted June 4, 2014 more fool the promoters for letting bet365 stream their meetings. There is already enough reasons for fans to stop going to speedway, without giving them another one. That's another argument.My post was about a fan quoting about what is killing speedway and didn't understand the irony about him/her not attending his own teams meeting.

packerman 160 Posted June 4, 2014 (edited) I decided at 6 that I wasn't going tonight even tho at the time it was brilliant sunshine. The forecast was awful weather all day but only had a few showers, yesterday was saying the best of the weather was going to be tonight!

Hang on a minute mate I checked out the weather forecast , which any one who is able to read can do, the meeting should never have started , so I suggest you wind your neck in and get your facts right 2 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Wolfsbane 12,944 Posted June 4, 2014 Not at all. We're applying the Swindon rain formula, we're losing so it should be called off If you were doing that it would have been called off a week last Tuesday Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Shale Searcher 1,264 Posted June 4, 2014 The Rainfall Radar is quite difficult to understand accurately, and is quite often misread, the dark blue used on most rainfall radar applications and programmes signifies the lowest/least amount of rain, but actually it's not actually measuring rainfall, it's moisture content, it's a bit more complicated than that, but quite frequently it mistakes low cloud/mist and really light rain/drizzle that evaporates before it gets to ground level, so if you've got dark blue on rainfall radar above you, it's not always raining!! 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
