JJ Can you inform us why when it was persistent rain, the Track was soaking, gale force winds, but the Birmingham Manager and Riders wanted to race, oh yes that was in September and they need to race to get in the playoffs, If you were at both meetings please tell us which was the most dangerous conditions  

I was there for the first meeting (were you?) and watched Tom Woolley only manage two laps nearly falling: it was obvious from this that the track was not safe. The Birmingham rider who was due to try it out (Leon Flint; the others had more sense) was not allowed to try and it was the referee who called the meeting off. He could have insisted on it going ahead; referees have done so in the past.

In fairness both Coventry and Brum need to ride at Buxton still. So had both teams got the fixture in, in all likelihood it's fair to assume the same top 4 would apply anyway.
