I think it's all because of the flights/foreign leagues etc....it seems a call off based on the forecast, is far more prominent in the Premiership, as opposed to the other 2 British Leagues?

You're right there have been a good few ,but to be fair, on the flip side there have been numerous times when Buster has bust a gut to re lay the track only for riders to refuse to go out, so in one respect I can sort of get it Still not raining though Update at 18.55. 8 miles away and we've got some light drizzle. That'll do it then Edited April 22 by castrolargh Update 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

And KL ain’t making many friends at the moment Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Pretty easy really, let the meeting referee call it, and take it out of the hands of staging promotions. Its been done before. 1 Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
