If only there was something such as a Premiership CEO to make sure all tracks started at their advertised start time, whether that be rider parade or tapes up 🤔

I would imagine this is actually the refs call not the CEO of the premiership. The referee on arrival is (i believe) responsible for the control and running of the meeting are they not?

Yes, let's start at Caravan Command in North Lincolnshire... he's probably tied up in a wardrobe next to Harry Redknapp 😂

That may very well be the case, even if it is it shouldn't be, as in most professional sports the meeting "Start Time" should be the advertised start time. The "start time" is mentioned a few times in the rules in reference to procedure, reporting and appeals etc. yet it doesn't state what the start time is, parade or tapes up and it doesn't say who is responsible.

It's so simple it shouldn't be an issue, clubs should start, i.e tapes up, at their advertised time, if they want to hold a parade lasting 5, 10 or 15 minutes prior to that, it's entirely up to them and they should adjust their advertised start time accordingly... oh and have enough turnstiles open to allow easy entry.

I arrived at the (half mile, or thereabouts) traffic queue at 6:45. They opened up the overflow car park just as I actually entered the stadium gates.

I was directed to the overflow, and was the third car in there. Rather fortunately this allowed me fast exit after the meeting.

I stayed behind talking to some N'hampton fans (main topic - how quickly can we get rid of Klindt) and given it all decants onto one 'B' Road I was pleasantly surprised at how quickly the car park cleared.
