Feel sorry for Poole on this one not nice for them and obviously the people who may have this wicked virus but at least it will be re run.

But it’s summer holidays with lots of people in the area. These people swell the crowd and the club make a profit. Running the meeting mid Sept means a smaller crowd and lost opportunity to swell the coffers. It’s pretty disastrous to be honest.

Poole fans you best get use to this  as it’s a fact  Stadia uk don’t want speedway at the stadium and they will make a bigger profit margin  by the stadium been re developed to something else  ie housing  . It’s a modern scourge to get speedway out of prime locations for profit

They are lease holders. They don’t own the stadium. They cannot submit plans to build houses as they don’t own it!

They only rent the stadium from the council and sub let it to the speedway.  If they owned it then it would be flats by now

I feel bad for the Redcar fans. Also hope the council have a good relationship with Matt? As I'm guessing Stadia Uk/GI will try their hardest to convince the council to see things their way?

Poole should have to forfeit the fixture 

Why? Unfortunately the club don't have any control over this. GI don't want speedway there so they are hardly going to bend over backwards to try and get the meeting on imo. Let's see what happens on the 18th first.

A crass stupid pointless posting.

Speedway has enough problems as it is. Poole Pirates should not forfeit this fixture in any circumstances.:mad:

Presumably the Stadia UK Deputy Manager is the official Licensed Premises Supervisor - all large venues holding public events with alcohol must have one - so without him/her on site the stadium cannot operate.

Its unusual for a large venue to only have one LPS but as Stadia UK laid off all bar a couple of staff then I guess its to be expected.

So if Stadia UK decided the bars would be closed for the night, could the meeting have gone  ahead ? After all they still have the rent from the  Speedway !!
