Or did exactly 2000 turn up ???? And how much could streaming the meeting have generated for those unable to get in or those KL fans unable to make the trip, and neutrals around the world? Another opportunity goes begging. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(but i get the point) maybe it will be on the comedy channel Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Falcon1983 Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 Streaming isnt a zero cost thing, there are set up costs, if streaming was to be done correctly it should be by the BSPA not individual clubs. Shame a few witches fans stayed behind to watch the kings Lynn victory lap (on foot) only to boo Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fantastic performance buy our guest, and when will King and Heeps watch were other people are riding. I was keen this season with Crump.& Klindt. Still okay with Allen and Crump. Not very keen when we lost Crump. Had it after over 50 years of supporting with Guest and RR probably lasting for week's. Pennies going else were from now on. 2000 attending? What is the limit under current guidelines? I doubt it’s anywhere near that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chun Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 Anyone know why they didn’t water the track at all during the meeting last night? Was that the case for other home meetings? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
John Scrutton Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 (edited) Think the non watering could have been the riders who can dictate this at anytime even the away team but i would have thought that Lynn riders would like it well watered.

The Kings Lynn team walked around the stadium on the stock car track. Can't remember seeing it at Foxhall before. The phantom stone thrower would have had easy target's.

marko Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 Some have mentioned it was inside line or nothing, sounds like Lakeside back in the Ronnie Russel days, water that type of track it does not produce grip, just makes it like an ice rink.

Baldyman Posted June 4, 2021 Report Share Posted June 4, 2021 You could tell there was no outside line working well,,, cos some of the Witches riders couldn't keep off it. Makes me wonder if they have any brain cells when they keep getting passed on the inside. That's 2 weeks on the trott the away team have done nearly all of the passing.

There was no dust whatsoever and on a day like Thursday that’s down to the expertise of Bob Ellis and the track staff. unlike Birmingham the previous day. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

But if the outside had a few sprinkles of water during the evening,,, wouldn't it have made an outside line to pass on,,, as well as inside, so in theory better racing.
