Halifaxtiger Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 (edited) len silver wont like that idea! Joking and absent riders aside, I am not sure that there is much difference between the call off at Belle Vue and the call off at Rye House on Saturday. I certainly know Plymouth fans who had booked accommodation so they could travel on to Newcastle the next day. EDIT: Beat me to it, Dave.

BROCK Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 I am sat in the hotel opposite the stadium,with my friends. we are totally peed off. £75 in fuel £90 for hotel between us plus food and drink. went over to track at 6-15 tofind it all locked up and not a soul to be seen, the weather was dry. The ptomoters were sat in the hotel with members of the council. They said it was the water main. I wish I had known about the riders missing at the time. Another waste of money, at least the riders will be reimburst unlike us supporters. Rant over. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Next time, Save up your money and come to Peterborough and watch a fantastic meeting on a fantastic race track which will result in a meeting almost certainly being on unless there is heavy showers.

Halifaxtiger Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 i agree, the BSPA should have sent a local referee to rye on saturday to check the state of the track. I think the difference is Poole have gone nuts (utterly justifiably) and they were actually at the track, where as Plymouth haven't and weren't. Its still a match that was called off completely unnecessarily, though, without any thought for the paying spectator. I had planned to go to Rye House in late May; I will be going to Eastbourne (whose weather forecast on Saturday was exactly the same) instead.

Bruiser McHuge Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 Or not. New and better photo out now. This happened at Hyde Rd many years back and made that area like a pudding. Thank god we're moving. i remember that at Hyude Road...the track looked ok but when i stood on it it was moving under your feet like a bouncy castle...horrendous Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
dump that clutch Posted April 29, 2013 Report Share Posted April 29, 2013 I personally hope the book gets launched in their faces right between the eyes. Totally out of order from The BV management.... and they really think they could get away with it. shocking....truly shocking. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can't stand promotions that don't try and run the meeting at all cost, Fans have planned their day, Spent travel costs and sometimes the meeting is off due to a dodgy weather forecast but luckily the Panthers management don't seem to do that.
