Cerro 190 Posted August 8, 2023 Feel sorry for the Plymouth fans. They deserve much better than the constant sh*tshow Mr Phillips is serving up. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

4BM 119 Posted August 8, 2023 Imagine there’s a few Plymouth riders who’ll be wanting this season done so they can find a new base for 2024, shambolic to only prep 1hr before, if the promoter does the track and everything else then some delegation needed as a one man show will never work 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
allthegearbutnaeidea 1,743 Posted August 9, 2023 I know of several Bandits fans that made the trip, spare a thought for them, not a nice journey for a promotion to do that, and they were apparently refused a refund on the night. 5 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Travelling from north of the border I've already had 2 rainoffs at Plymouth (Glasgow & Edinburgh), just wondering if it will be 3rd time lucky on the 29th, when Edinburgh are due to visit, or if I should give it a miss.

lbw 881 Posted August 9, 2023 I know a promoter that once told me in writing that you should expect it being a speedway supporter........hence I never went back to that track again while he remained there! Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Fromafar 10,427 Posted August 9, 2023 Think the majority of the fans at the track and tuning in on BSN knew there was no chance of the meeting going ahead when saw the truck wasting fuel driving round.It should have been called off by the ref long before the meeting started.Will Plymouth complete their fixture before Christmas.Think they would close the doors tomorrow but they would lose their deposit. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

marko 956 Posted August 9, 2023 If that’s the best effort they can make no wonder they haven’t raced for two months. Once again they will be holding up the entire league because they have failed to get meetings on when maybe a little thought and effort could have saved them. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
