Its good that it is being fitted into April Saturday also provides opportunities to build a larger crowd as easier for visiting fans and probably more popular with newbie/irregular families Still seems crazy to have half a dozen specified reserve dates and have to use an off night (despite some advantages) after just 1 rain off

Go for it - speedway needs more of this Build the atmosphere get more of the crowd involved, create a buzz that others what to be part of.

We could make it a party just as if its someones birthday......

This is exactly right and is the point many have been missing when commenting on the early call offs all around the country. The weather on the day is almost irrelevant to decision with so much damage done in last few weeks

A horseshoe, rabbits foot and four leaf clover may be better.....

I said I would reserve it for you for when you need it - give me a while to save up for the shovel though

Dont think so Its just non team meetings such as testimonials

Looking forward to meeting you

Not sure even I could!! The original photo was a beautiful panoramic that could win awards The crop was somewhat less inspiring but 0.247mb doesnt get you a lot!! At least that still looked in focus which is more than the previous post of the track pic

Because the team would still be under the total limit as per original planned 1-7

Seems pointless having reserved dates set when it cant be insisted on that clubs take those dates

Can redclare whenever you like and as often as you like so long as the incoming rider is under the average of the departing rider or the team total remains under the limit

Want me to put a reserved marker on that spot for ya?

Is there stocks on 28th? If so the 21st not an option as stadium use is limited to 2 meetings in any 8 day period

We have another reserved date on May 31st..... Oh hang on Swindon ride Belle Vue So we have half a dozen reserved Thursdays before August and Swindon ride on them all so Lakeside are unavailable

Has also disappeared from the BSPA site monthly listings where it was showing yesterday September it is then

The cup now being on June 14th also sees Swindon host Rye so if that date not changing then guests will be in order for either Robins or (more likely) Lakeside anyway

Seems you were just ahead of the game Badge - for the home leg at least https://m.facebook.com/story.php?story_fbid=1976470832394694&id=172498052791990

A few puddles on the driveway and odd patches wet but mostly very dry in car park

Just passing by so popped in and car park and track look in decent shape I will post a couple of pics if crop works to get with forum file size limits!

Looks like even the base has washed away - note the inside kerb floating The rain only got heavier in the last 2 days so in that picture the track is probably significantly better than it is now!! No way of getting that into shape for Thursday even if we had 2 days of sunshine and a 30° heatwave IMO

This Redcar from a couple of days ago

There are times when the adverts are more welcome than the posts......

No need to apologise Badge Its just a shame a new date isnt as easily and speedily knitted into the list And not impossible that those dates do revert to the Shield rather than the cup - after all its tradition for the first round of one side of the cup draw to not be completed until September
