Brummie Kev Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 a meeting I never miss. Is it on the Sunday after the Cardiff GP. Thats final day in the World Cup. early start needed Yes I believe the Welsh Open is on the Sunday the same day as the World Cup final. I too hope its an early start possibly a 12 or 1pm Start so I can make it back for the final which starts at 6 I think. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Welsh Open is tradtionally a 1pm start Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 After last seasons 4.5 hours for a speedway meeting and 45 minutes to run a single heat, I think I'll give this a miss for the first ever time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
seanisnumber1 Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Can we have an 11am start please...dont want to be missing the world cup final!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dukes1966 Posted June 9, 2010 Report Share Posted June 9, 2010 Still wouldn't make it home for 7.30 if it started at 11am - might just be back for the presentation! Unless we scrap the every race falls! And don't forget the hosepipe and Ashworth withdrawing after 3 falls in 3 races. Sure I've forgotten something..oh the tractor............

Yes. Because the time lost to hold ups in a meeting one year will be the same the next year. It's the law! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Silver Bee Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 That's right Shawn, considering the incidents that took place, the Newport promotion actually did well to keep it within that time scale. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
BigFatDave Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Yes. Because the time lost to hold ups in a meeting one year will be the same the next year. It's the law! I don't remember any hold-ups: I was able to keep drinking the whole afternoon. Keeping up with Dietbowers and Dai Lager was interesting in the bar afterwards.

Ben91 Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 You'd think the promotion would run the meeting so it finishes just before the footy kick off, then everyone would have to watch in the bar (if there is room/tvs there etc.) Would make a good pay day for the Wasps with lots of drinks etc being sold on top of the meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bryn Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 Surely it's not worth anyone getting their knickers in a twist over whether, if they attend the Welsh Open, it might prevent them getting home to see the World Cup Final for England aren't going to be in the latter are they?

tanya Posted June 11, 2010 Report Share Posted June 11, 2010 There is a large screen available in the bar so I'm sure showing the football would not be a problem. Although choice between speedway or football...no contest speedway every time. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

tanya Posted June 26, 2010 Report Share Posted June 26, 2010 A few names have been released Ty Proctor, David Howe, Ryan Fisher, Craig Watson, Leigh Lanham, Kyle Legault are the ones I can remember more to be released soon I guess. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, 'in line racing', riders had to follow each other on the blue groove hoping for a mistake from the rider in front because to move off line ment you lost a place. All in all a very poor meeting last year. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
