To be honest any of us who go when the weather is iffy should expect to only see 10 heats, Sweden can call it after 8 heats!

Heat 1 proved different.

No deliberate engine failures or averaging lowering just a team in freefall. Still, I'd rather a team be crap than cheat. The expected result that proved Monday was a one off.

Think we all get, you are still stuck in the 60's and 70's. However back in the real world the play offs will have the crowds flocking to big time speedway. Hurrah for the play offs! The fact is the best team won on the day.

It's never a disaster to leave an away track with points.

Like Wolves will threaten it.

Good win for the Aces puts them back in the top 4, a place they deserve this year.

Thems the breaks. Perhaps you coasted in the 2nd half believing the job was done. Let's face it most did. Wolves had to show some fight eventually so it's hardly anything to groan about. You got exactly what you deserved out of the meeting in the end. At least Leicester fall to the basement so there has to be something to be grateful for.

It's not a poor performance when you take something out of an away meeting.

Totally unexpected.

I'm in shock.

Very few to call it a celebration I'd imagine. Is it 2016 yet?

It isn't on Iplayer, thinks it's on online only.

Losing is the only thing we have been doing very well at.

Don't hold out much hope then.

Sadly we are 'sticking with it' that's why we couldn't win a goldfish in an empty bowl.

2 predictions I think will be correct. 1. Wolves will continue the losing streak. 2. The terraces will be barren. Season is over for me that's the only certainty.

I'd say it was more of a rarity than the norm to have a meeting rained off tho. Hence why the crowds knew where they stood most of the times.

You never got call offs back in the 70s, hence the difference. You knew that speedway would be on. Apparently riding bikes with no breaks back then wasn't dangerous , it only is today.

Absolutely. It's one of the reasons why the sport is dying. Any threat of rain and riders automatically go into won't ride mode. Likewise fans don't bother to go either because it's unlikely a match will start or will they get value for money. The riders and promotions are turning the sport into a good weather sport only. The track looked OK, not perfect and nor should it have it expected to be. It was also expected to be only 10 heats and those few who attended probably expected it. It's the hypocrisy of the coventry promotion tho that brought about this issue, yet don't moan when they have won a meeting over 10 heats, No wonder it was thrown out.

What was wrong with the track from heat 1?? Was it perfect? No. Was it raceable? Evidently. Thank god this ridiculous attempt to get a re staging has been put to bed . The only nonsense was trying to get the meeting overturned in the first place. It seems only Coventry didn't think it should go 10 heats, but are quite happy to get a match to heat 10 when it suits. Will it be put to bed? Nah I doubt it either. Correct decision.

better to be crap than cheat with iffy engine failures , we scored 7 points more than usual so nearly a result. Roll on 2016. In fairness PK IS a heat leader in this league and so he should be. Surely he must be asking the question how much longer? He was a heat leader masquerading as a second string and nothing has really changed from last season now. 37 points is an improvement but just goes to show there is no fight left, we have already given up.

And probably can still make the play offs!

Surely not as many as 35??? :

I was being sarcastic. Our only battle is to avoid finishing bottom. Our season is already over.
