Sings4Speedway 3,247 Posted August 9, 2022 Thought I heard a number of key staff are taking August holidays (yes really) which is why Kent NDL fixture couldn't be arranged until September 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

I understand the thinking was that as we progressed in other competitions these open dates would be filled, but at present its being delayed as other clubs complete their fixtures. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Lenny Lion 138 Posted August 9, 2022 NDL meetings are arranged on 3rd & 10th September because that is the Polish middle & bottom tier play off finals over 2 legs. So Leicester would be without Nick Morris if his club make it. But if you look there are only NDL fixtures on those dates throughout the country. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Should be able to race the NL KOC final in August. Means they won't have to put it off until Leicester's play-off campaigns are over! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Odd that, we Pirates are waiting for other club's to finally complete a fixture that was abandoned on May 27th. Wonder which 2 club's they are? Yes ponder ponder On ur profile....... 75mm can vary as to how far it is depending on the circumstances & consequences. Also varies on the size of the moving creature, the speed the creature travels & whether the creature is travelling vertically or horizontally.

I'm talking about Leicester putting on the NLKOCF or Jubilee League final being raced in August, so there's not a large gap without racing. NLRC doesn't enter into the equation, apart from being a date the Lion Cubs can't race on. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
