StevePark Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Anyone have any idea on the Edinburgh line up today with Craig Cook and the reserves missing? According to The Journal, Rider Replacement for Cookie. Adam McKinna has Tweeted he needs a Mechanic for tonight, so I presume he guests at reserve for the Monarchs. Marcel Helfer (again according to the Journal) is fit to ride. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh well his normal Edinburgh form of 0,F,R from him then.... cursed injuries, Tabaka is probably out for the season after his op so the search is on for another reserve. Better get ready to rain dance. Edited August 27, 2012 by Dekker Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Al Stewart Posted August 27, 2012 Report Share Posted August 27, 2012 Ah well, better a little bit late than never Well done to whomever put the Newsflash on You shouldn't be too harsh, the point is to let everyone know asap, but most importantly stop visiting riders and fans travelling. George let Edinburgh know early enough, which is very much appreciated. I was on a bus into town, Matthew Wethers had driven up his driveway but no further, etc. Of course once we've been told it spreads like wildfire.

Shame this - two weeks with no Speedway - how will I cope? :sad: Thank you for Posting the fact that the Meeting is 'Off' early folks.

It's always one of the contentious things with calloffs Ian. Leave it late and there is criticism about wasted time and money. Call off early and there is criticism that the meeting could and should of gone ahead, and you risk the fans imagination as to why they weren't able to see speedway that night. Len Silver at Rye House is renowned for very early calloffs, especially with teams that have some travelling to do. Many a time we have received a call at 9.00am on a Saturday morning, and we have been staying overnight at a hotel in Swindon, following a meeting on the night previous at Somerset. Having breakfast knowing you are travelling home, instead of a wasted trip to Hoddeston then home, is a great consideration. Len gets lots of criticism but he is rarely wrong.
