Winditon Posted June 16, 2019 Report Share Posted June 16, 2019 Pretty depleted looking Scunthorpe side. Don't think it will be much of a meeting but hopefully we can only beat what's in front of us. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

diamond@heart Posted June 16, 2019 Report Share Posted June 16, 2019 Hoping we get some news on 90th Anni meeting today, very quiet from promotion in terms of this meeting. Should be a showcase meeting as not many teams get to 90 years. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

T'is nice in Newcastle atm, been ok this weekend apart from a bit rain last night,,, but we have had a LOT of rain this week. Some could have predicted a 'call off' earlier in the week,,, Killy lake was flooded !!! Edited June 16, 2019 by ruffdiamond 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All you have to do is look at Facebook with George English explaining they had taken off 13 tankersfull, and the water at about 1.00pm with three quarters of the track still under water. We have had tremendous floods this week and we are denied access to the track by the stadium owners, we could only start the track preparation easy this morning. Jonny can make decent tracks after heavy rain during the week, but the monsoon weather is just too much to get a safe racing strip even though it is warm outside ATTM. Add in more rain forecast for 5.00pm and the situation doesn't need any justification. With your probs, today was a meeting waiting to be won by the Diamonds. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Geoff is a pair of Workington fans, who often go fishing on threads, nowt to do with Scorpions Today, rather than fishing on threads, they should have gone fishing in that puddle behind George Hope this miserable weather stops soon - some riders must be really struggling for income at the moment. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
