Bash 496 Posted May 31, 2018 The lack of fixtures at the moment is going to come back and bite us IMO. Only 3 fixtures in June is a joke, how is this team going to get some momentum or consistency. With other teams changing their teams for the better I can see us struggling to make the playoffs. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Baldyman 6,243 Posted May 31, 2018 (edited) You can't put nico and Cam together, that's just a useless disaster waiting to happen. Let's just hope the meeting goes ahead, otherwise it's then another couple of weeks till the next home one. Edited May 31, 2018 by Baldyman Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's totally baffling why the authorities have cut the fixtures back like they have with so many gaps of 2/3 weeks at a time is got to be wrong . Worst possible scenario is to take away continuity which will only cause people to get out of the habit and not bother , it may not affect the hardcore fans too much but those casual fans will soon forget and those are the people we need to encourage so much that they want to come back week after week. If it was felt that the fixtures were too congested in 2017 then why didn't they just cut back so each team plays each other once and then say 5 B fixtures each .

dontforgetthefueltapsbruv 10,706 Posted May 31, 2018 From the end of June through September there should be weekly home speedway which should be prime time to attract the casual supporter The fixture list even this year is set up for that so not all bad Just need to get the team fully in gear and could still salvage something from 2018!

Icicle 896 Posted May 31, 2018 Oh Look! It's Thursday, speedway night at Ippo--NOT. Again NO meeting. Why not? Is there a track?? Is there a season?? This is past being silly. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Baldyman 6,243 Posted May 31, 2018 You would think that may be the case, but it's not something I've given much thought to. Recent Thursdays have been taken up with other ventures Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Arch Stanton 2,255 Posted June 3, 2018 Good to see Covatti get a couple of guest bookings though with our lack of fixtures and him only just returning from an injury lay off. Couple of decent confidence boosting scores as well so bodes well for us. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
