However there are plenty of blank fixtures throughout the season to slot these fixtures in though I bet some clubs will still end up running double headers towards the end of the season!

Everybody else , especially Glasgow , have an ulterior motive for calling a meeting off lol . agree with you totally on number 2 . only then will it become a PART TIME SPORT for riders and the people actually promoting it will reap the rewards for footing the bill for so long . make it a summer SPORT again and lose all these money grabbing riders .

Hasty decision imo, an they wonder why crowds are down. Ian Thomas would never of called a meeting this early with only light showers forecast. Bet your eating your words now Midget , it’s absolutely pee’d it down all day here in Workington and I’m 10mins from the track so the right decision was made , still coming down , damned if you damned if you don’t . Plenty would have been on here whinging had they called it off this afternoon after looking at the forecast Edited April 7, 2018 by Taylorj 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Comets had call off on Twitter over 3 hrs ago, weather forecast changed. Disappointed there was no mention on Border news last night after good coverage last week. It is raining now and has been for a while. Will Chris Harris always drive to Glasgow or is it feasible to have bikes there and fly from Exeter sometimes? 5 hours ago, Paulco said: Danny Bird used to fly up , so maybe he will .
