A ORLOV

They are worth following as the info and speedway TV schedule is more up to date than their web page .

This is all a cunning plan to end up with 5 heat leaders in the 1 - 5 from May 1st.

Only if they had paid up front

You are not surprised that this is another ambiguous rule then ? Who thinks up these rules and then is responsible for putting them in the rule book.

The winners of this meeting is difficult to predict, normally Roscos Roobins would win this but as some of the Swindon riders have not ridden as many meetings as Leicester and not ridden for a couple of weeks some of them may be a bit rusty. Leicester have made an improvement bringing in A Summers, a rider I would not have minded having back in the Swindon team this year.

A good rider that has strengthened Leicester, will be interesting to see how he goes and if he can beat any of the Roobins heat leaders.

Oh dear there is a threat of rain at Leicester between 4 and 8pm on wed on the BBC forecast.

I would not pre buy any tickets from this bunch and no doubt many others would not either.

Correct, any rules have to be published and be available at the time and place the ticket is booked or purchased. Also it would be impossible to have an offenders photo at all other tracks if the offender refused to have their photo taken.

That was my question, and what happens if you refuse to let them take a picture of you.

Would be interested to know how they would enforce a ban at all tracks.

Not if the person putting a couple of races out on it with the agreement of the management, ie given a licence to do it. If they start showing too much then they are stopped SS did the management give you the ok to use periscope for a couple of races. ?

Thanks Gem, corrected, I go to the pub to watch it but mon night till wed in the pub is too long.

Hope not as Swindon are due there on wed which should be on sky.

Would rather have an early call off rather than wait all day, get to the track and the meeting is cancelled. Also some of the riders travel a long way, anything up to 3 hrs to be at the track by about 6, longer if any Wolves rider lives abroad. With the call off I can now do a shift of pole dancing tonight.

Looking at the planning app and documents no change from March 3rd, so presumably still held up re parking issues.

Meeting OFF To be restaged next thurs 14th. Next year they should start the season in May.

Cold, cloudy and light drizzle at the moment. Rain forecast this afternoon, will update later.

Jackanory time

Apparently some brilliant races at Poole tonight but because of an announcement that anyone periscoping will be banned the club has lost a brilliant advertising opportunity, one or two races shown would not do any damage but the powers that be still have their heads stuck in the sand.

Swindon have Wolves at home on the thursday.

Wolves visit the Abbey this thursday with one change in the team, Steve Worrall in place of Kyle Howarth. Swindon have their normal team. http://www.swindonrobins.co/news.php?extend.2652 The Robins should win this meeting but I can see Wolves possibly getting one point.

Hope not or I will not have an excuse to go to the pub to watch it.

Still sponging off the state at 22, shocking, should have had a job by then and paying tax into the system to pay OAPs pensions .
