Anyone who has missed one or more meeting will be able to use their pass. Those that have full attendance - and it's a couple of handfuls (as it were) will get admission and programme for Edinburgh included, pay £15 for the Glasgow portion (I suppose they could go home after the first meeting ... but why would you?) concessions £12.50. Ticket use has been recorded over the season - anyone in any doubt can check with me on Saturday night. Holders of rain-off tickets will get the face value of those tickets taken off the £30 cost of admission - ie £10 for an Edinburgh ticket, £17 or £13 concessions for a Glasgow ticket; £34 for a Glasgow family ticket (concessions and family tickets were not issued for the Edinburgh meeting). Bumper programme being produced but will still cost £3. Think that's it all covered - any questions please ask ... I'll answer between stacking the baked and suncream Edited August 25, 2019 by George Dodds 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
gmuncie Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 Are there options to only attend one of the double header? Might put some fans off who were at the original stagings in essence for Tigers fans having to pay £15 to watch the Monarchs match and the Monarchs fans £20 to watch the Tigers match.

Rye House had a system in place for double headers. Anyone wanting to watch the second half were able to enter the stadium at the single meeting admission price just before the end of the first half. Anyone entering before the first meeting paid the double header price. Bit hard on the fans of the team racing first, but I can’t see any other way of doing it apart from clearing the stadium after the first half, which would be a logistical nightmare. I can’t see how they’ll get 30 heats in before the 9.30pm curfew anyway. Edited August 25, 2019 by Shadders Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are ... everyone will pay £30 to get in for the first meeting. They will be able to leave after the first meeting and get part of the £30 refunded - sorry to be vague but I've forgotten exactly how much the refund is (as you can imagine there are a lot more variables than normal with rain-off tickets of different face value etc. Will check and post the exact figure as I wouldn't want to get it wrong and cause confusion on the night. The turnstiles will also reopen in the compulsory 20 minutes between meetings and anyone just wanting to watch the Glasgow meeting can for £17/£13 concessions.

Why would anyone want to leave after the first meeting, you are entering the stadium to watch two meetings. To that end IMO I dont think anyone should get a refund should they choose to go home after the first meeting. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Dodds Posted August 25, 2019 Report Share Posted August 25, 2019 (edited) This is kind of a repeat of an earlier post but I've now clarified one or two bits. Effectively each individual meeting of the double header is valued at £17 adult entry, £13 concessions ... but it costs £30/£25 concessions to get in because that is what the promotion believes is a reasonable amount to ask for 30 heats of Championship speedway. Anyone holding a rain-off ticket can use it against that entry fee - ie an Edinburgh one is worth £10 off admission, a Glasgow one £17 or £13 concessions, a family and friends ticket £34 off the combined price of two entries (ie £60). There were no concessions or family and friend tickets issued at the Edinburgh meeting. Anyone wishing to leave after the first meeting will receive a £13 refund on adult admission or the equivalent of what they paid. For example an adult who used an Edinburgh rain-off ticket and paid £20 to get in would be entitled to a £3 refund. Let's assume (even if it makes an ass out of u and me) that no Glasgow fan would use their rain-off ticket and then leave after the Edinburgh meeting! They will only be able to claim that refund in the interval between the two meetings. A ticket protocol will be in place to ensure that anyone wanting to leave gets the appropriate refund. The turnstiles will also reopen in the compulsory 20 minutes between meetings and anyone just wanting to watch the Glasgow meeting can for £17/£13 concessions. Sorry this is long-winded but there isn't a simple answer because of the many differing forms of potential entry on the night. Oh ... and children accompanied by a paying adult will be admitted free.
