Didn't one of them get abandoned after the track was 'watered' with slurry? I think the bowser had been filled from a nearby river which, unbeknown to them, had been contaminated!
Would those stadiums accept disruption to their surfaces? Cardiff is palleted and easy to remove/replace. Are they?
What evidence is there that Wembley would get 'a seriously decent crowd' ?
Why should those criticising be expected to do any better? They are unlikely to be professional commentators are they?
One can be a critic without having any expertise in that field e.g Barry Norman didn't have to make films to be a film critic.
I noted this result among my programmes and wondered if there has ever been a higher winning margin of 70 pts in a single match?
13-Apr-1948: Southampton 89 Wombwell 19
This was in an 18 Heat match. I guess higher is possible in a 20 Heat match but am not aware of it. Any takers?
I agree with you but it's not always that simple.
