glenantony Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Glasgow last weekend showed how to get on with a meeting despite inclement weather. Keep the racing going, forego grading breaks and just plough through. Their presentation was excellent in the circumstances 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CTD26 Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Wish people would stop usuing the bbc weather christ. Saturday looks a tad better than tomorrow with less rainfall. Both meetings will be on and the track will cook up some excellent racing like always. Skins waterproof so if people are that bothered about getting wet, take a change of clothes.

The only watch out will be the track being too grippy... I am sure though with the quality of the track team involved they will deliver.... 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Odds On Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 Some gullible people on here, starting to believe weather forecasts are in anyway accurate is downward spiral in life, it is not healthy and not a good idea if you wish to keep your sanity...if you do believe in weather fore casts you must be Labour voters who believe in Ed Miliband! 1 3 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Where's the headlines praising the Government for the massive reduction in immigration and small boats which has been achieved since 2024/5?? How about the progress with the NHS and reduced waiting lists?? No, all we get is Peter Mandleson stood in his pants - as if that had any real impact on people in the UK 🙄 3 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know a minority want to screw the system but many really do want to work. Perhaps this is the generation that the sport should be reaching out to and using the various social media outlets to get them to suggest where the authorities could take the sport. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilTheAce Posted June 4 Report Share Posted June 4 We have been watering the track this afternoon and evening. Track needed it. Tomorrow wont be as wet as people think. Saturday is only patchy rain and again it wouldn't surprise me if we water it before the start time 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

marko Posted June 5 Report Share Posted June 5 Serious question, in an age when meetings are called off at a whim, Why hasn’t this been called off when there is rain forecasted all day and night in Manchester. 1 2 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
