I looked last Friday at the fixtures and didn't see a KOC or Shield match in the fixtures on the SGB website. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Lord Lucan Posted August 14, 2018 Report Share Posted August 14, 2018 Just another finger pointing thread? We all know that both parties have to take responsibility for the way this season has panned out, Workington for not making better use of the "barren spells" during the first 3mths or so and now the SCB!! After initially saying we couldn't race on Friday because too many teams were racing on that night, they agree to half a season's worth of fixtures instead, then, having seen how dangerous we've become, they pull the rug out and make us rearrange meetings with teams whom have a vested interest in not putting themselves out of contention by fielding a weak side at DP outside of their best laid plans? No one will help anyone in speedway thesedays because teams are full of riders wanting to maximise the benefits to themselves rather than their clubs so it's no surprise that no one will switch race nights if their top men are elsewhere and facilities allowed to cover are less than perfect like for like swaps, until that is looked into and proper arrangements made to cover absences then this situation will just carry on dragging British speedway down? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
