He might be right but I can remember him on a wet Peterborough track not being at all interested and just riding around at the back in all of his races clearly making no effort.

There might be an excuse in Coventry's case as they are dependent on the Leicester track being available? I don't think we'll have to worry about that next season though.

Yes I understand that but as there is still the final to be arranged they should make every attempt to run the semi as soon as possible. Unfortunately 'dead rubber' matches have often taken place after the top league positions have been decided.

Do these outstanding fixtures make any difference to the top 4 places? If not then surely the Eastbourne v Coventry semi final matches should take priority.

I am sure you know by now Mimmo that the match is off. Been chucking it down with rain for ages.

Was he?

Thanks for interpreting my post without me getting banned.

There won't be any post and I certainly won't be congratulating Poole. Of course you will hang on. Pirates will probably also win at Kings Lynn ~ similar to what Coventry did in 2010 in the 2nd leg at Poole. Remember when they won both legs of the play-off final and the management acted like spoilt brats? Some of us never forget so don't expect any congratulations from me because you won't be getting them.

Wouldn't be at all surprised.

Shame Matt Ford and Middleditch didn't think that in 2010 instead of acting like they did. Boots on the other foot now so of course their reactions will be completely different.

This does sound a dodgy idea if they dont finish till 4pm as Bees match is supposed to start at 3pm. Should make it very interesting.

But can we? Someone has said there is an Amateur Meeting on Sunday that has been arranged for ages. Hopefully he is mistaken.

Difference of opinion doesn't give you the right to call him a 'sick man'. He didn't even mention Darcy Ward. I don't like or agree with a lot of posts but you are interpreting his words differently to how they were meant and to respond like you have done is way over the top.

Still a way over the top reaction and an attack on the poster.

Wow! That comment is really uncalled for.

I'd give up if I were you because it's impossible.

You'll be lucky. Pretty much sums up how Speedway is now. Woz took the day off work so he could attend, I had to arrange for family members to visit yesterday and not today even though it was inconvenient for them. All for nothing. I'm not bothering again as I just don't believe the track couldn't have been prepared in time for a 4pm start.

Yes what happened? No rain since yesterday afternoon and with a 4pm start I was expecting the track to be sorted out okay, especially as it is a lovely sunny day. So disappointing.

I don't think that will be happening, although I wish it would so we get to see a bigger variety of teams and more fixtures. Hopefully Big Al is correct. I suppose we will find out soon.

Unfortunately just because they want to drop down doesn't mean they will be accepted into the Championship so I wouldn't bet on that yet.

Shame your management didn't think that way instead of acting like spoilt brats when Poole lost both matches.

Glad I didn't bother going as I've never been interested in individual meetings and it's quite an effort for me to get there these days. Just hope the track is better next Sunday for the Bees v Eagles match.

I didn't go so I can't give an opinion as to the racing but it just goes to show how differently fans react with regard to their enjoyment of a meeting. Reading the posts on here I get the impression it was boring, the usual processional stuff and riders having problems with the track yet elsewhere the comments were 1] 'What a great meeting that was. Not all from the gate and some good racing.' 2] 'Great meeting. Really enjoyed it.' 3] 'Enjoyed this meeting today. Plenty of determination and grit.' 4] 'I enjoyed that. Good entertaining Speedway.' So presumably some fans are easily pleased?

Mayonnaise for me. I'm quite surprised at flagrag's comments actually because the food van always sells loads of Burgers, Chips etc. and it must be Leicester fans going back for more each week as there aren't that many opposition supporters on Monday's.

Can't comment on the Burgers as I don't eat meat but I've always thought the chips are nice and for £2 not bad value as you get a lot. I have been known to have them on Sunday afternoon (Coventry) and Monday evening (Leicester).
