Heavy shower now.

My confidence has gone.

Back in Crookes now and heavy rain like you o fear this will be called off again 

5 mins later bloody suns out!! I think they will leave this as late as possible to see if they can get it on!

Maybe they can now arrange it without Emil AND Doyley 🤔

You'd have thought that, with the air fence having a shelf life, a certain ex world champion could re-purpose old air fences as track covers and sell them back to clubs... just a thought.

This postponement means tomorrow’s meeting at Ipswich is a waste it time, other than to work on the averages as deadline for league meeting points (and bonus point) will have been and gone by time this gets rearranged 

You’re right it is, unless Sheffield manage to run this at the weekend. Let’s hope Sheffield don’t turn us over at Foxhall tomorrow (providing that goes ahead as well) because if they do, we could have the farcical situation again of the wrong teams facing each other in the semi finals when the Sheffield fixture gets run after the play offs and the final table ends up different to what it currently is..

At least I don't have to travel the three miles to the track.

I have a ticket from last week's fiasco, can I still get a refund? 

I am so fed up up with speedway at the moment, I doubt if I will go again. 

Hope your disappointment soon wears off. You could always go watch United or Wednesday instead. They’re both doing well aren’t they ?

Not really as if Ipswich win then there 100% top.  Yes it wont change anything as the cut off date will be before the Sheffield restating, but its still better for top to be determined on the track.

Sheffield will do anything to avoid the Aces in the playoffs 🤣.  Joking aside, why are the playoffs starting so early.  There should have been 1 weeks grace between the last week of the league season and the start of the playoffs.

Mustn’t need the time to commercially promote the play off’s  this season 😜

That definitely needs to be looked at. Yes it’s unfortunate to have rain offs right at the death, but it is now September and there’s always the chance the weather takes a turn for the worst. They need to leave a two week gap in future, between the final set of fixtures, and the start of the playoffs offs to allow clubs time to rearrange postponed fixtures.
