Shale Searcher Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 What was the point of this message given that the meeting has been called off by 12.00 noon today ? I know we are in the hands of the weather but why issue an optimistic / positive message just before it is called off ...... Anyways .... A fair question... Perhaps Neil Watson can respond and let us know what has changed since he posted the optimistic message saying the track had been prepped for rain and would go ahead this evening? Not having a go, or criticising, just interested in the timeline to being called off..... Thanks in advance Neil.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Bank holiday Monday would be a good date to rearrange it with neither team having a fixture then and the kids still off school Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Robbobee Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 3 1/2 hours is hardly 'just before', but as you say, our good intentions have been beaten by the weather. Hi Neil - sorry it sounds like I am having a go at you here - that is genuinely not the case and probably just my disappointment that the match has been called off ! It's just that your original message seemed so positive only then to be completely reversed .... At least we can hopefully re-schedule when we have KK back in the team ..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stevebrum Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Unlucky for the Hammers, they would have been looking for 4 points against a KK less side. Pressure now on Lakeside to get an away win after the Robins took 4 big ones last night. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SCB Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Unlucky for the Hammers, they would have been looking for 4 points against a KK less side. Pressure now on Lakeside to get an away win after the Robins took 4 big ones last night. They wouldn't have got 4 points anyway. Wet track = not suited to Lakeside so would have been a Bees win.

Bees_Man Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 That was kept quiet by the management. Would we have been told if meeting was on tonight or was it going to be one those unpleasant surprises when you're in stadium?!!! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bees_Man Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 (edited) AJ, bomber or Kk? Edited August 19, 2016 by Bees_Man Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Woz01 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 (edited) AJ, bomber or Kk?Bomber has said he will be travelling to the GP. Suppose all the arrangements are already booked. KK is the wild card. Only have about 3 weeks to fit it all in and doesn't help that the stadium is unavailable for a week for the Stock Car world final weekend.

Only have about 3 weeks to fit it all in and doesn't help that the stadium is unavailable for a week for the Stock Car world final weekend. If Chris Harris isn`t there then it`s 3 who won`t be- because AJ and KK definitely won`t be. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mdmc82 Posted August 19, 2016 Report Share Posted August 19, 2016 Going to be hard with our top 2 in Harris & Kaspazak missing. Then there could be no AJ either and no Lawson for Lakeside Surprised they did it for then and not the bank holiday Monday Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
