mdmc82 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 It is now pouring down 😞 really feel for Harris and his family. Hopefully we will hear of a new date for it soon. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Sunday March 29, 2015 WE regret to inform supporters that Chris Harriss Testimonial at Brandon on Sunday has been POSTPONED. Â Â Referee Chris Durno arrived at the stadium early on Sunday to inspect the track, and unfortunately the surface is saturated. Â Given that there is the prospect for further showers during the day, the referee has taken the decision to postpone the meeting rather than attempt to run a sub-standard event in unsatisfactory conditions. Â The meeting WILL be re-staged this season, and a date in July is being considered. We will provide an update as soon as possible regarding that date. Â We apologise for the inconvenience, and look forward to a successful event later in the season in far better conditions. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dornier Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 The field might have to be revised a bit but it makes more sense to run it in July...He`ll probably get a better gate now... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Near to the Cardiff GP would be good depending on if there's any fixtures the day after. Lots of fans over for it. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gemini Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Sunday March 29, 2015 UPDATE 10am - MEETING ON  Rain has stopped, and has not been prolonged, and forecast for later is much-improved on yesterday.  The meeting is ON - website will be updated IF that situation does change.  Gates open from midday!   Meeting off  http://www.speedwaygb.co/homepage  Blimey! That changed quickly in a quarter of an hour. Shame I didn't do another check before setting off around 11.15am. When I arrived Chris was in his 'civvies' and leaving so that didn't bode well. Such a shame for him and family after all the hard work in arranging everything. Let's hope next time it's a lovely sunny day with a bumper crowd. Rather than go straight home I did what I'd planned to do anyway before the meeting started - take Lucy for a walk through the wood to Coombe Abbey Country Park and back to the stadium. I was able to christen my new Bees coat in the gale force wind and rain and find out it is lovely and warm so if anyone is looking for a new coat I can recommend this one. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gemini Posted March 29, 2015 Report Share Posted March 29, 2015 Ha Ha. Perhaps I should re-phrase that last sentence. Try the track shop as this one is going nowhere. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So you're not taking it to Brandon again this season? Â All the best Rob 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

lucifer sam Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 I thought duplicate names weren't allowed on this forum. We've already had a Two Minute Warning on this forum for several years. Having a second one is going to get jolly confusing  All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe I could change the word Two to a number 2 or try and think of another name (although I may need some advice on what I need to do to change it lol) Edited: I have changed it from Warning to notice. I Hope that's a bit better. Edited April 21, 2015 by Two minutes notice Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
lucifer sam Posted April 21, 2015 Report Share Posted April 21, 2015 Sorry Rob  No need to apologise to me. It's just going to get extremely confusing, especially if you ever end up on the same thread  All the best Rob Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

speedybee1972 Posted November 18, 2015 Report Share Posted November 18, 2015 It would be nice for bomber to bring back as many x bees riders from the past to get together one last time at Brandon before we loose the best stadium in the country 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
