Cheers Jordan Another update around 5pm would be most appreciated. Sadly I can't join you for food tonight due to work commitments Let Wayne have my share Yep, hopefully going to get up there Chris, but we do come up to the "land of whippets, Tetleys Bitter and Frightened Sheep" on a very regular basis as our daughter is at Uni in Leeds and we all love Yorkshire. Might see you later Thanks to everyone giving the weather updates. Hopefully leaving Newmarket about 4'ish. Spoken to the Scunthorpe Management this morning and they have assured us that they will do everything in their power to run this meeting.

spin king junior Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Well we did have a good 5 minutes of heavy rain. But it's stopped and cleared up a bit now. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
tigerblues Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Hopefully the weather can make its mind up one way or another, if it's on and off in Sheffield it'll be difficult to decide whether to run the meeting, personally I think they won't call it off unless absolutely necessary.

Just spoken to the powers that be and the track is good,the rain is almost dried up as fast as it lands and at at the moment there is no problems and its DEFO on, These riders will also give it 100% im sure being a Pay-off semi Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
squall Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Just spoken to the powers that be and the track is good,the rain is almost dried up as fast as it lands and at at the moment there is no problems and its DEFO on, Would that be the same powers that be that told my mate it wasn't raining, then were left speechless when he said "Is that why I've just drove past the stadium with my wipers on?"

Cue Ball Posted October 6, 2011 Report Share Posted October 6, 2011 Without wanting to sound pessimistic... its been lashing down on and off all afternoon, will be surprised if its on and if it is on, fear for the quality of the racing Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
