Shadders 4,135 Posted May 29, 2017 No it isn't Picky.... 60-80% of rain between 2-3 according to Met Office. Perhaps the forecast you've seen says different? Weather forecasting is very hit and miss. You can check three different sources and they'll give you three different forecasts. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Elmo 274 Posted May 29, 2017 The going looks a bit heavy at the moment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Glennylion 89 Posted May 29, 2017 (edited) Looks heavy and riders still on centre green in civvies. Looking at a 2.15-2.20 start. First announcement made at 1.50. No chance of a pre 2.30 start. Track work still ongoing and plenty to do. Edited May 29, 2017 by Glennylion Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Happy Hunter 370 Posted May 29, 2017 Looking at the forecast heavy showers from 3 pm I don't think there is a snowballs chance of this match starting.There is at least another half hours work to do despite an announcement of a 2.30 start. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Robbobee 144 Posted May 29, 2017 Just got back from this afternoons match v Rye House Rockets. Firstly - great effort from the track staff to put the meeting on at all ... Secondly - can't help feeling this is one that got away for the Lions despite a reasonably strong effort from the Rockets ! 8 points up after 6 heats should be enough to see the home team to victory in most cases .... Two race no scores from Jason Garrity and another non show by the track specialist Lasse Bjerre cost the lions big time .... Oh Well - the only way is up when you're firmly at the bottom !!

poolebolton 464 Posted May 29, 2017 Sorry Lions fans but you need to make more changes you are just not good enough. I am going to run through your team. 1.Nilsson= Is awesome and a better number 1 than most in this league. Has been 3rd best number 1 behind Doyle and Lingren. 9/10 2. Riss= average but is perhaps one of the worst in the league= 5/10 3. Bjerre= Is just really bad and struggling and not good enough in a heat leader role= 5/10 4. King= Not very consistent in the Prem, will get 10 points today but away will only get 4.= 6/10 5. Garrity= Been rubbish so far= feel like he is out of his depth, is a real weak spot on his average= 4/10 6. Bates= Been solid but has not kicked on as much as expected overall= 6/10 7. Ayres= Pretty decent number 7= 7/10 I feel like you could get rid of Riss and Bjerre for now. And because Riss misses most meetings and gets some better riders in.
