woodenspoon Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Just been on the Official site, no mention of a call off yet, as usual late with any announcement. Considering we have had over 60mm of rain in the last 48 hours, this meeting should have been called off first thing this morning. lets hope no Kings Lynn fan has left home already.

semion Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Reading this article below from the EDP, maybe NKI wont be unhappy tonight is off. Starting on Saturday (May 10) I’m riding in a pairs’ meeting in Germany, on Sunday I’m in Poland, on Monday I’m at Manchester (Belle Vue), on Tuesday I’m in Sweden, on Wednesday I’m in Lynn, on Thursday I’ve got the Danish championships, on Friday I’ve got the GP practice in Finland, on Saturday I’ve got the GP and on Sunday I’ll travel home. It’ll probably be the busiest week of my season. - Niels-Kristian Iversen was talking to Gavin Caney. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Rob B Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Rain very localised apparently, bright sunshine where I am in Manchester but pouring down couple of miles away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shale Searcher Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 That's schedule and a half! But it's his job.... Too many meetings getting called off now, fans lose interest, potential new fans never get to see Speedway, losing its credibility as a pro sport...... Some tracks worse than others and absolutely no consistency in rain offs. Cricket used to be the most rain effected sport, they've managed to improve the % of matches played.. why oh why can't Speedway? Thought dirt deflectors were added partly to aid rider vision?

Trees Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Let's see if the old saying 'absence makes the heart grow fonder' works for speedway, ought to if it's an attractive fixture which I'm sure fans must have thought this was!

stevebrum Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Just been on the Official site, no mention of a call off yet, as usual late with any announcement. Doesn't it have to be called off by a 3rd party?? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
A ORLOV Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Doesn't it have to be called off by a 3rd party?? In BVs case, a plummer. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

semion Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 The question should be will the track be any worse than it was last season when Poole visited ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shale Searcher Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Doesn't it have to be called off by a 3rd party?? I thought that, didn't a local ref or SCB official have to pootle along and make the call? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
woodenspoon Posted May 12, 2014 Report Share Posted May 12, 2014 Doesn't it have to be called off by a 3rd party?? Now on the Official site, " Following official confirmation, tonight's meeting has been postponed due to a waterlogged track" whether this means BV have to have a third party clearance is not clear. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I read it that `official confirmation` is 3rd party involved. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
