JanAndersen 822 Posted April 1 So the champions elect start their campaign with a tough opening fixture against last year’s fortunate league winners. Looking forward to speedway getting going again at the home of Scottish Speedway although unfortunately I’ll need to take this one in via stream. Let’s hope for some sun. Edinburgh Monarchs: Pickering, Fredriksen, Thomson, Castanga, Sedgmen, Coles, James Possilpark Tigers: Harris, Pearson, Flint, Starke, Worrall, Complin, Pijper 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Beirao 202 Posted April 3 9 minutes ago, Nickinho said: Rearranged fixture when? May 31 is the first time both teams have a blank Friday on the same night. Glasgow currently show that as reserved for KO CUP semi while May 17 is shown as reserved for BSN semi. Anyone know the opposite of a rain dance?! 1 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Would agree the forecasts suggest the weather is to get worse and if todays weather is anything to go by no chance for Friday. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

snapper 193 Posted April 4 So the reigning Champions from the 2023 season are set to take on the Champions from 9 seasons ago, the last time they won a team trophy, and it looks like they are bottling it already playing the "track is too wet card" 2 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
