Phil The Ace 2,860 Posted April 27, 2016 Monday 9th May. Coventry at Home to Wolverhampton Leicester at home to Poole Both 7:30 starts If both teams agree to run at same time then it can be done. But there is Deffo a 30 mile radius rule, all though can anyone confirm this Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

BWitcher 12,453 Posted April 27, 2016 If both teams agree to run at same time then it can be done. But there is Deffo a 30 mile radius rule, all though can anyone confirm this This is correct, another one of the stupid rules the sport has in place, as they desperately scramble for the 8-10 fans who might go to both. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Gemini 4,894 Posted April 27, 2016 Actually in this case I think it might well affect the Bees attendance as the match is on Sky. Quite a lot of fans attend both tracks but the attraction of recording the Coventry v Wolves match and watching Lions v Poole live might be the plan for some people who live in the Leicester area. Not me though, even though I've renewed my interest in Beaumont Park, I will definitely be at Brandon. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted April 27, 2016 According to Google maps it is 35 miles from Belle Vue to Stoke speedway. I can't imagine many, if any, fans who will attend Belle Vue would have gone to Stoke or vice versa. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
ouch 1,191 Posted April 27, 2016 I looked at that but I think it might be as the crow flys and I bet it's just within 30 miles. Still silly though. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Aces51 2,778 Posted April 27, 2016 I must admit I did see one of two crows about at the opening meeting, couldn't tell if they were from Stoke though, didn't get close enough. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

RobMcCaffery 2,752 Posted April 28, 2016 See Friday's weather forecast. Any views? http://www.bbc.co.uk...r/2643123?day=1 So, it might be rained-off. There's still two days. If it is rained-off then the next meeting will be the first - and so on. It's not that complex. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I heard him crowing about it. Said he had to fly, going to buy one of those wulfsport jackets with the money. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
