Will all the Speedway fixtures be completed by September 9th to meet the Play off criteria.

The decision could have gone either way......hmmm baffling As many others have said a great nights racing , I thought the crowd level was ok especially for a late start and running on an off night and with no continuity of the fixtures. Regarding the fixtures....it was always going to happen if we are to fit all the home matches in but running two home meetings on the same weekend in late August is not good for the fans or the promotion, well done the BSPA. Hopefully the weather will be kind or it could see us missing out in the play offs.

After many spare weekends of no racing at Derwent Park, the news tonight is we may have to run meetings on Saturday and Sunday of the same weekend to complete the home fixtures.

Sad news, RIP.

Guest who knows , NL rider who knows, averages it’s all numbers and magic.....ouch I sound like Jenga

Workington try again to kick start their season......will not mention the W word !! Ok , the Comets are up against a fairly strong Scunthorpe side which will probably see r/r or a guest for Rene Bach recently injured in Poland , not sure yet if Ty Proctor is fully fit after a crash at Poole on Wednesday.

it would be 500 for many clubs

Yes saw that on updates , at first it said he was up, after the crash then withdrawn from the meeting. Hope Ty is ok

Very brave, best wishes Rene.

Yes probably August the 9th.

Rene Bach injured , not sure of the extent yet, best wishes Rene.

I agree, as with Brexit no one thought it would happen

Qualified on merit as per rules.

Exactly..... here’s a poor fixture list at the start of the season....oh well change it....er no well change it again.

At least it wasn’t a League meeting.

Final decision at 18:00hrs...….

Last update at 17:00 says its still on, but many people reporting still raining.

Update from the official Comets Facebook page at 15:20 it’s still on

For quite a few years now.

Just a guess I would say Workington , Redcar and Newcastle .

Yes I think it’s early September about the 9th.

So the new season kicks off in earnest with Workington up against the Newcastle Diamonds, the Comets will need to defend a 10 pt lead after the great away win at Newcastle . Rain is forecast all day Saturday but hopefully not to heavy and prolonged.

Ok.

Well done for getting the upgrade, not so good for people who paid full price, still its similar to getting a room upgrade in a hotel or a flight up grade. Filled in a survey last night from the official SGP site, usual questions, did you attend the fan zone and for how long, likes and dislikes about the stadium experience, how much you spent during the day per head.

Weather warning for heavy rain Friday into Saturday morning then light rain all day Saturday, does not look good but might change yet?
