IainB Posted Sunday at 05:43 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 05:43 PM There seems to be something very wrong with the drainage at King's Lynn these days... Lynn idioted up the whole leagues fixtures last year and are being allowed to do exactly the same thing again this year! When is the sport ever going to learn 1 point each and move on to the next meeting. 1 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The whole of British Speedway has to suffer? They'll have to apply for a refund or have the meeting rolled over. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you don't want to run your matches just take a gift point and move on, it really is that simple Edited Sunday at 06:53 PM by IainB Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your idea has so many negatives I've failed to convince King's Lynn fans... that's because they'd hardly see any Speedway due to the continual stunts that are pulled by Buster. And that is part of the reason the sport is in the state it is, cricket doesn't rearrange or put on double headers and that's doing quite nicely thank you very much. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Seems an understandable and sensible call to me. As a season ticket holder I'd be pretty miffed if points were awarded and meetings not run.

As a season ticket holder it is not beyond the wit of man to roll your unfulfilled meeting on to next season. What you guys in deepest darkest Norfolk don't seem to realise is there's a whole league system going on elsewhere in the country with play off qualification/positions to be decided and a TV schedule to be adhered to. KL idioted it up last season and they're idioting it up again this season. Edited Sunday at 08:13 PM by IainB 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF the track is genuinely waterlogged and won't be raceable in the next 24 hours you may very well have a good point there 👍🏻 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilTheAce Posted Sunday at 09:10 PM Report Share Posted Sunday at 09:10 PM (edited) I watched the fishing on sky sports on Saturday. And that was in Norfolk if I remember and that had some heavy rain all day. So not surprised really.
