Well yes I do, particularly if he's riding again on the continent and isn't going to ride for us. Would this mean we are stuck with an NDL guest? That wouldn't be good.

Amazing to hear that they staged a junior meeting in the afternoon!  Apparently the surface was tyre-packed afterwards.  Interview with Klindt on BSN, he said it's a known problem, but after doing a track walk he felt it was much worse, possibly because of all the rain this week. From the view on BSN, blading the shale seemed pointless, because they were just back to the shiny clay - it would have taken an age to try to relay the surface. As it is, the riders never got changed, so weren't remotely interested in riding. I'm told that turnstiles weren't closed until the formal announcement at about 19:25 ...

I went to many a track and thought, this looks bad but we had to get on with it and mostly it wasn't at bad as feared. The look of a track is different to how it may feel when it's ridden. 

Anyone care?

Shambles and not the first time at this track, easy to blame stock cars but Lynn has both, Coventry had both, others tracks have had elements of both where even with a tarmac track the cars still end up rutting up the speedway track. And let’s not forget it’s not stock cars sharing with speedway, it’s speedway sharing with stock cars, I turned in BSN close to half seven, was going to to give it a couple of races because at least with bomber involved you will have at least one rider who will prove whether the track has anything to it but all I saw was them blading off a ton of dirt leaving a shiny surface, no way were they ever going to race on that. 

Two of the three riders you mentioned had to retire due to injury
