Thanks for the reply.If it was never on Scunny's fixtures I apologise I probably got the relevant fixture from the Sheffield website. Would have checked that before Scunny's as Sheffield is my home town. Did not think to double check for inconsistencies. Two fixtures I thought seemed unusual at the time, Sheffield's potential away fixture 25 July v Scunny, and the fact that we still have a provisional fixture on Sunday 15th May (seems even more unusual now Glasgow are staging British semi on that date. Is there a provisional date for this match, or are Scunny awaiting to see if they beat Newcastle first?

No intention of going to a Cradley fixture

I thought it was on both Scunny and Sheffield's website(I know I wrote this provisional fixture in my diary when fixtures first published). I note Sheffield have a provisional date for Newcastle away, should Newcastle win, and I am sure a provisional date for the fixture at Scunny was listed as I intended to call at Scunny on my was back from a weekend at the east coast, should Scunny get to the second round. I will have got the info from the earliest publication of the fixtures. I have re-checked my diary with Scunny's latest list, and the only other changes I can see is the Glasgow start time, the addition of the British Semi, both of which happened after the original list, and the removal of May 15th as reserved date, presumably as Glasgow have British Semi on that date. Is there any provisional date to host Sheffield, in the event of them beating Newcastle, or will this be decided after the first round.

Then why was the date provisionally in the fixtures?

Could not make it up. Went to Scunny last Sunday, meeting delayed, no paramedic, Buxton this week, no ref. Wonder what it will be next. Thanks for weather updates. Thanks to the ref who stood in at last minute

Just noticed, that the provisional home date of 25 July, for the second round of the KO cup has been removed from the fixtures? Anyone know why this is? Are Scunny so confident of defeat in the first round?

If any locals could give weather update Sunday would be useful. Thanks

According to the announcer Paramedic was at track 1 hour before start, but decided to go home and come back. Why not just stay there. Also, wasn't there some youngster doing a few laps before the match. Should a paramedic not have been in attendance for this?.

Hints of team changes for May given on Sunday. Would the following team meet all regulations. 1 Auty 2 Davies 3 Compton 4 Proctor 5 Douglas 6 Wilkinson 7 Bailey

Poor show by the home team. Did not appreciate the delays on such a cold windy night. For a club that says "it gets on with it" race 2 starting 30 minutes after the scheduled start time, and two hours to finish the match on a cold night, will think again before going to more evening matches. Few years ago they said they were going to have afternoon matches early season because it gets too cold, so why not??. Would afternoon starts not be better for away fans. Next match Plymouth. Their fans would be unlikely to get back prior to 1 AM.

No rained in Sheffield so far today, and no rain forecast

Been Sunny so far.

I believe a guest facility is available as he is on EL duty, but would not be if he was injured

I guess Garrity will be racing for Coventry. Any Thoughts on a guest? Can you use one from the same group?

Is Richard Hall OK after his crash?

Tomorrow's practice is off. Now Thursday http://www.sheffieldspeedway.co/news.php?extend.2008

Compton's average too high to replace Klindt, now, but will probably be OK when Holub's new average in effect.

Could get at least 32 for two semis, but, realistically, there are not 16 real strong challengers for the title (possibly not even 2 if Woofy at his best).

Has there been any announcements yet about British Semi finals this year?, or have they been disposed of and 16 riders seeded directly to the final? (apologies if it is me who has missed anything)

Both dates seem likely. Seems a pity that if the promoters know, they don't tell us.

So when are we going to get dates for ELRC PLRC, British Final and semis, British under 21 and Premier Pairs. Would have assumed that promoters have left dates available for these dates, and tried to make sure riders are available.

Yes but heat four is supposed to be a protected race where the number 7 can not normally be replaced by the number 6. So does this mean this rule is waved under this situation, or does the team have to race with one rider only.

Won't be PLRC then.

Re 15 May, clearly shown on website as a home reserved date. Still think there is potentially something for that date. Could the PLRC be early this year?. Any speculation anyone?

Sunday is a regular racing day for Scunny. Years since Sheffield staged a match on Sunday.
