Scunthorpe V Somerset (play-off Final, 2nd Leg), ***now Re-staged Monday, October 29th (7.30pm)***


Recommended Posts

Begged work to let me start at midnight...or even 11pm (take 1 pissing hour unpaid) so I could attend this. The useless tossers refused...but let someone go home 2 hours early this morning (and left us in the deep stuff).

What makes it even more of a joke is tonight is the annual audit, and we'll be sat around waiting an hour before we can work anything!

 

Hope it's a fantastic meeting for everyone...as long as Scunny win!

Is there anyone going to this meeting who would be able to text updates to the updates site? If so, could you please either leave a message here or send me an email or pm.

 

Thanks

BBC Look North, the local news programme on after the main news, had a short piece last night and showed the track. It was more like a swimming pool on bend 3/4. Also interviewed 2 understandably upset Rebel supporters on the coach, it was a pity they did not interview Rob Godfrey or Richard Hollingsworth to hear their side of things.

Are any of you guys able to make it back up today?

 

Maybe a massive outbreak of sickness in the Somerset area resulting in 200 people all needing a half day off work sick and nice recouperation in the fresh air of Scunthorpe :P

 

All the best

That's a shame. There were a good smattering of Scunny fans on Friday, but the weather has conspired against there being a following Somerset following tonight. The bloody rain has a lot to answer for this year.

 

All the best

I'm gonna play the devils advocate selfish card here. After attending every meeting at EWR this season and also making several trips away, when I found out the Mrs had booked a weekend away in Barcelona 26th-28th Oct without asking me, to say I was gutted was an understatement. When landing back and arriving home i found out the meeting was off, I guess I was the only Scorps fan who jumped for joy coz I'll certainly be there tonight :) Only worry is, im North Bank and it's just started to rain heavily near Humber Bridge about 12 miles from the track............not again??

I've been here since about 3.45 and had you asked me then I have said that it was unlikely tonight will go ahead. However substantial track work has continued since then, and I am sure will continue up to start time, but providing there's no rain I would be confident that it'll be ok. The track looks a whole let better than it did some 90 minutes ago.
