Well i visit both, and if Kent are racing in a higher league next season, that's where I'll be going. You also have to add in the factor of Rye House running on saturdays as well. Not an ideal situation for fans in the south east.
You couldn't make it up really. Eastbourne try to run when every weather forecast is against it, yet today is off when its bone dry. Who would plan anything around speedway fixtures.
It was a strange one at Kent last night, a Mildenhall rider was treated for an electric shock from his bike. Luckily he was ok, and the fifteen heats were just about squeezed in.
Well I was there on saturday, and I don't like being short changed for something I have paid for. Speedway fans are taken for mugs on a regular basis by the promoters. If Rye House had received complaints from the neighbours, then a simple statement on their website would have helped explain the situation.
The second match was in the KOC, and lakeside were already eliminated after heat 13. There is no question from me regarding underhand tactics, just the validity of an unknown curfew.
Start earlier if you can't guarantee to run the meeting, or don't run double headers. I think that only a couple were ever staged at Arena Essex on an evening. From memory the last one ended close to midnight!
