I know I'm biased, but would love to have seen the Halifax Dukes colours being worn in this meeting. I fondly remember the Aces v Dukes matches from the 70's. Beside it could have pulled in some extra fans, to see the White Elephant on the blue and red background ride again.

It would have been great if Stoney had been down to wear the Exeter Falcons racejacket !!!

 

Maybe the organisers could have a rethink, and swap Stoney and JW around ??!!

 

I'm being serious here, folks, not sarcastic. We always liked Stoney despite all he said about the dear old County Ground strip !! :D :D

Why is Scott Nicholls not wearing the Coventry race jacket after all he is a Coventry asset and will be back there next year anyway.

Now that Patrick Hougaard is now an Ace,i wonder if he will be the one to replace the injured J Lyons.

Has to be beforehand as main meeting is 20 heats plus other things happening.

 

Not seen the start time advertised much would expect this to be advertsied a lot in the next two weeks.

Just really hope the weather is kind.
