And just for good measure, the bloody sun is now shining in Wallsend. We might have risked this meeting if up against local opposition methinks.

DIAMONDS Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 What nonsense, I want a refund from the newcastle promotion. Nonsense? So you want the riders to race in unsafe conditions just because you already paid, shame on you Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Tsunami Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) Not long been back from the track after dropping the fence down. We had a lot of rain yesterday, but very little late and through the night. Forecast said rain this morning with showers during the day, but before NOON, it was a glorious day , warm breezy and dry. Got to the track and there was still water on the track, but it was felt we could get the meeting on, especially as at that time the Boro team and travel fans would have been on their way. A heavy shower came over, and all the track was very wet, and about 10 minutes later a longer shower which the track could just not take. A brave attempt to try to get it on, not even a likelihood yesterday afternoon with all that rain, but all to no avail. Schramm not down to ride due to back pains, where he apparently he already has a plate. No doubt he will be grateful the postponement will give him a longer period to heal. Best decision to cancel from a lot of angles, no doubt the team changes will occupy the minds to see what should happen next with the team.

screm Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 What nonsense, I want a refund from the newcastle promotion. Only if you organise a refund for the Edinburgh fans who were out of pocket from the recent meeting at EOES. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
ruffdiamond Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Only if you organise a refund for the Edinburgh fans who were out of pocket from the recent meeting at EOES. and don't forget about the collection for 'Rays' Skoda tyres,,, that's if he still needs them, might of scrapped it by now :-( 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NJC71 Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 (edited) Wasted trip to Brough. Never even crossed my mind that this would be off. Been a fine day other than a heavy ish shower for 20 minutes this afternoon. Certainly seen meetings take place when the weather during the day has been a hell of a lot worse. Never mind.

Arson fire Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 Wasted trip to Brough. Never even crossed my mind that this would be off. Been a fine day other than a heavy ish shower for 20 minutes this afternoon. Certainly seen meetings take place when the weather during the day has been a hell of a lot worse. Never mind. unless the track was desperate then it's def the wrong call.... Given when it was called off and given the rain since then ( hardly any if any at all) then surely there was time to get it raceable.... ?? Yes we all understand the panthers and travelling but it's part and parcel..... On warm sunny evening aswell Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
HadrianDog Posted May 11, 2014 Report Share Posted May 11, 2014 So with this rain-off I guess we have dodged the bullet as it seems Schrambo was unfit. It gives the lad another week to recover before Plymouth on Friday. Shame that Danny King makes his team debut away though. I bet Redcar are so looking forward to next Sunday too.

The forecast was pretty dire and, had they still ran, you can guarantee it would have poured down and everyone would say "well the forecast said...." In some resects it's a gamble either way, although if you read Tsunami's post, it sounds like it was a 'no-goer' anyway. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
