griffo Posted July 21, 2018 Report Share Posted July 21, 2018 If this meeting had been at Stoke with all the Falls the forums would have been on Fire slagging one thing or another off as it seems only Stoke gets the Flack. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stoke get the flak because the club and track has been in a downward spiral for years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Halifaxtiger Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Its true that tracks have had deliveries of poor quality shale but as far as I am aware that has been resolved now. Word I have from Plymouth is that the dust is terrible. My pals down there are some of the most reliable that the club has but it has got to the point where they are now picking and choosing meetings, leaving early or not going at all.

Harry Kane is playing for Tottenham tonight, but playing for Bolton tomorrow absolutely ridiculous.. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
cityrebel Posted July 22, 2018 Report Share Posted July 22, 2018 Poor track preparation and doubling up are just two of many reasons why fans don't go anymore. The annual razzamataz at Cardiff still appeals to a lot of people as a one off event. I don't know if it would be as popular if it was staged on a regular basis.

Only complained the track was wet and did not want any more water to make it slippery. Have a look on Plymouth’s Facebook page , there is a video on there for your appraisal....dusty Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say I was not there, and only spoke to the lads after a few beers on Saturday in Cardiff.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
