UK rainfall radar map - Met Office

Looks like the rain is around all weekend so probably all meetings in the North will be cancelled.

Hope an early decision is made, as Ben Cook would rather like to watch the GP!:party:

Poole could ride on any day of the week, now that there are no greyhounds - subject to getting stadium staff in!

Not quite true, Redcar and one or two others can , if they choose too but will be restricted to ONE meeting per week as per the lease.

They have a very good relationship with Redcar council since having renewed the lease in 2018 when a lot of constraints on the club were removed.

You need to get your facts right. As Fortythirtyeight said Redcar have an excellent relationship with the council. In fact in 2021 they ran 3 matches in a week. Redcar can run any day, any time, as long as it does not contravene the curfew.

I think you’ll find my facts are right, as I negotiated the lease .

So how come, Redcar raced against Poole on a Friday and had an amateur meeting on the Saturday, this season. Earlier in the season, we potentially had Stuart Robson's farewell on a Sunday and Redcar v Newcastle on a Friday in the same week. Loads of other instances, over recent years, It seems to me, that if its in the lease its not enforced.
