ScunnyDan Posted June 11, 2019 Report Share Posted June 11, 2019 Have heard that Glasgow nor Newcastle didn't want this Friday too... plus, seeing the weather this week, the track I would say is damaged enough and with more rain due, theres no way God himself would be able to get a track suitable for a proper race meeting Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you would be happy if two teams full of guests plus r/r plus juniors raced against each other. Throw in the dodgy weather and that would really draw in the crowds. Do you really want scunthorpe to join the ranks of former speedway tracks. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No! You said they should have been told to race this Friday. Sadly riders are self employed and this Friday wasn't on there list of dates. It is safe to assume that both Glasgow and Newcastle wouldn't have been able to field there full team hence why they allegedly said they couldn't come. Scunthorpe have injury problems and as another poster said the track has taken a pasting from the weather hence why they appear not to be keen.

Last weeks decision to cancel was well justified.. the rain did come down, incidently at its heaviest about 7.30pm. Certainly wouldn't have got a meeting on. For Scunny, Stevie Worrall was a good choice of guest, as was Anders Rowe (given his performance at the EWR a few weeks back)...plus R/R which could've been taken by Worrall, Auty, Neilsen and Ayres.. Can't see why Scunny would've wanted it off, Glasgow neither as they too had lined up good guests. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Plenty of spare dates available with only having 14ish home meetings. Date now arranged for July 28th so, hopefully, will be warm enough. Come and join us with you missing speedway that much & air your grievances face to face with Godfrey rather than sticking the knives in on a forum.

I did speak to him last year after mr garrity told my 8 yr old grandson to "piss off " after rasmas caught him on the line and he was acting worse than my 8 yr old, and to his credit he listened and answered all points put to him.
