Terrace Grumbler Posted October 20, 2019 Report Share Posted October 20, 2019 26 minutes ago, mike7164 said: However in my opinion our 90th Anniversary meeting being attempted so late in the season because of the earlier cancelation is ridiculous! I have a feeling that the anniversary meeting was never going to happen anyway. It's half term next week so I won't have the opportunity to pay to use my season ticket for the cup final, and our season is therefore over unless we go to the Silver Helmet meeting (which might be a good idea). It just feels shabby, somehow, but I do hope the cup match is run next week. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's only a few weeks ago that Redcar apparently wouldn't come to Brough aa it meant 3 meetings in 3 days. Southern Tours used to be longer than that. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why can't the meeting be held on another race day? We already have people suggesting it might be next year! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree that Newcastle are NOT to blame. Bad weather is not Newcastle's fault. If however you wish to apportion blame to Redcar for the farcical situation we find ourselves in due to the delay in running the SF against Eastbourne then I would just like to say that it takes 2 to Tango, and 2 teams to run 2 semi finals. Perhaps Redcar were NOT entirely to blame either! 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Our alternative day is Monday, and the stadium owners have advised that the stadium is being used, so therefore next Monday has been reserved with the teams , the BSPA and the Stadium.

I am not saying that, however given your account on this mater I would suggest Redcar are more to blame that Newcastle for running the final as late in the season! But I did also name Eastbourne in my post so its between you both. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

You also had a bye into the QF hence 2 less matches to arrange - I appreciate it hasn't been an ideal situation but there are valid reasons why we are where we are, not least the typical British weather at this time of the year.
