He was pretty adamant about it too. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

No fault of either club just a series of poor decisions and organising has made this meaningless, this situation should never be allowed to happen again. No fault of either club I'd say the exact opposite. They decided they didn't want a one off final at Sheffield last year. Then dilly-dallied around arranging fixtures, so didn't get it done last year. You would have thought it would have been easy enough to arrange a home and away challenge as a warm up for the new season but no we've got a one off meeting at Poole at the very end of this season. Wouldn't be surprised if it was rained off. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Looking forward to another meeting! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Silly idea then. 20 Fans from each club and a tiny scattering of Sheffield fans. No wonder the idea was chucked. Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
Essex 67 Posted October 23, 2023 Many different opinions but at the end of the day it's another meeting fans can attend may or may not be a proper trophy at stake but a final chance to see speedway this season enjoy it while you can. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
