We will to hope the weather plays ball then!

CVS normally makes an early decision when the weather looks dodgy to save away supporters a needless journey.  Well looking at the forecast now,it's actually got worse.Heavy rain from 3 o,clock onwards.With Tuesday and Wednesday looking unlikely ,could be Swindon now stages first leg.

Cradley might be forced to cancel, in the best interests of the sport!

Both Play Off matches so might be interesting to see if they allowed both to carry on if it came to it!

It’s the same every year tho isn’t? Weather in September/October has often seen matches cancelled and run completely at short notice with little chance to advertise.

Poland and Sweden have it right by finishing their seasons before end of September.

I couldn't agree more with this point, every year the same people come on here bemoaning a lack of fixtures and continuity issues and the simple answer is to condense the season, start the 1st of April  and get league fixtures done by the 31st of August, Play Offs, Cup Finals and any extras to be all done in September, this alleviates the fixture situation and saves the oldies avoiding the cold months of March and October,  it's a summer sport after all.

Glad this has been arranged as I'm golfing (or sailing!) at Celtic Manor for a couple of days tomorrow and Tuesday and was wondering whether they would bother putting the speedway on when there is a big footy match on. 

Looking at the forecast of gales and a hurricane hitting the UK in the next few days do not forget to take a wet suit with you, have fun
