I managed to get a chat with my local postman yesterday as he delivered a parcel and he readily confirmed what a lot suspected that the sorting offices are holding mail back and then releasing it for big deliveries on certain days, they call it streaming where they save mail up for delivery to save them doing the rounds for just the odd letter in a street, I am not sure how that fits with first class postage rates or promises but he readily accepts it’s happening and causing them long days sometimes when it’s heavy as it is this time of year., interestingly I still haven’t received my star this week which is somewhat unusual but it does happen occasionally.

Nothing official, yet

Nothing has been said or hinted at by anyone involved.

Royal Mail do make it difficult to make a complaint but freepost via customer services gets a pretty quick reply, but it’s clear that the problem is sorting offices who are clearly holding post back and just sending it out on certain days. My local postman is very helpful and says if it comes out for delivery to them it all gets done that day, which just supports the view that some of it just gets held back, we get very little post Mondays, Tuesdays and Wednesdays, Thursdays we get loads and then it’s back to very little if anything Fridays and Saturdays. My star generally arrives on Thursdays but occasionally it’s later and I have even had it Mondays, which again from where it’s printed and posted (20 miles away) isn’t terribly brilliant on a first class postage. Like a lot of others I have considered the internet version but I do prefer a hard copy and the difference in price isn’t much help, editorial tell me it’s expensive for the internet version as well.

Or much more importantly can Belle Vue afford to just stage one

It’s 27

A bit like a Finnish rider riding for team Sweden against his own country, it’s complete and utter pants and the idiots in charge sanction it. It’s difficult to understand why supporters don’t go and watch this spectacle isn’t it.

And it happens pretty much every year

Nothing been released so far

Does anyone have a readable copy of the draw please

Any weather updates from Sheffield?

Why aren’t BSN showing Leicester v Ipswich, it would have easily doubled their viewing, rather than this crock of shyte

Strength in depth is fine if all of them or at least four hit good scores, the only time Lynn have done well is when at least two of the top five have hit double figures and a reserve has got around 15, unfortunately it’s not happened to often, the tracks utter shyte as well that doesn’t help.

All Lynn meetings take an age to finish, sun, refreshments and tractor racing all come into play

I hope Ritchie shook Robs hand tonight, I did get told he declined on Monday but I bet he has a face like a smacked arse after that shyte show.

To be fair they have, shocking result for the Witches, not sure what the Lynn fans are moaning about Rob Lyon has got Lynn into the Final.

If the racing was generally better than 90% of the usual gate and go, and teams actually got on with it and finished the matches in 1.5 hours I’m pretty sure the crowd levels would go up. That’s probably why Buster gets less than 500 most of the time.

Correct

Reading his statement it sounds like Cook has binned Lynn.

So what’s new, they have been doing it consistently for decades

Lynn have redeclared for Monday, Scott replaces Harrison

It certainly isn’t so far

You should read her reply to being asked about in today’s star, she waffles on about it but in no way explains why she excluded Thomsen, just that’s it’s all about opinions and not everyone is going to agree. Bloody right they aren’t that decision alone should ensure she doesn’t get to referee another one but I would put money on it she does. A truly dreadful decision

Your in utter dreamland if you think Buster is going to spend money to try and get Lynn into the play offs.

I really don’t see any of the championship clubs coming up so it looks at first glance like a top league of 6 teams, whether that’s enough for TNT to keep the TV money in the sport remains to be seen, their surely isn’t enough riders for one big league.
