Shaleshifter Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 1 hour ago, Tsunami said: According to Met Office now, the expected rain will be arriving now and stay with us for another hour. It will then clear up with just a sprinkle at about 2.00pm, with no more rain forecast after that. A nice 18 degrees should be warm enough to dry it up somewhat. So according to the Weather Channel and Weather Live sites they also agree with the Met Office forecasts. So it looks very positive that we will have a meeting with a damp track, just like it should be. Hi Tsunami, thanks for the weather updates. I will be there at Brough Park this afternoon.

Panthers99 Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Can the Newcastle promotion really complain that fans are staying away. I can't imagine routs like that produce great racing, so you can't even use the excuse of.... I don't mind who wins. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Maybe another DH against more closer opponents can also be arranged? Especially if the opponents are going for the play offs.. Could maybe charge a bit more? Say £25..?

ruckerroo Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 These matches just show chasm between good and bad sides in the league, this year the gulf is enormous. Good news the diamonds can see year out at least. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I personally thought Cook did ok, he's riding as third heatleader because of the way the team was built and shouldn't really be there. For his first time seeing the track he was always in the thick of the action. Shame to see Crump getting well beaten off riders he shouldn't, but personally I think he's been away from the sport for too long. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mike0310 Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Maybe I’m being a bit harsh on cook but seeing him at home every week that’s why I’m saying it .As for Jason I’m starting to think sometimes it’s best to remember a rider the way he once was as I would hate to see him get seriously hurt it’s not worth it it’s with a very heavy heart I say that but I still think pedersen could carry on .

geoff100 Posted August 8, 2021 Report Share Posted August 8, 2021 Sad to see crump looking bad on the first corners time he took time out to think about his racing future, first match against poole was dreadfull to watch from a diamonds point , still nice to see some old faces from derwent park well worth the trip 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
