I can't remember word for word, But you got it right. He also said, hopefully we will have them for the next meeting and the engineers have assured him that it will only take them 2 days to fit them. There was a bank holiday stock car meeting on Monday afternoon, so it would tie in with 2 days to complete the installation time and be ready( Weds) in time for today if there were no hold ups and it all went smoothly. Which it hasn't unfortunately Edited May 5, 2022 by Bald Bloke Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s what many predicted and surprise surprise supposed work needs doing to the stadium. Promoters still think supporters are wet behind the ears I see. A very poor excuse of a week for the Stars.

Probably if they arrived on time.Apparently they were waiting for the new bulbs for months.They were scheduled to be done before the season started,sure Buster said that at one meeting.The old ones that are in there at the moment you can't get anymore is what i heard.So every time one goes it gets darker and darker.Hoping the new led ones will give us a lot better viewing with lighting the place up,should do.

If you'd read the thread properly you would know that this was scheduled to be done months ago. If it's a stitch up to cover for injured/ill riders then it was done with a crystal ball seeing as the floodlight issue was raised a fortnight ago.

Oh dear, if it was known to have been planned a fortnight ago surely cancel any meetings that it might affect if it’s a legit plan of course. Unless you are accusing the club as not having the foresight to postpone a meeting well before this was planned and happy to allow it to look suspicious? If it was planned it was planned very poorly. Either way it all looks very dodgy or unprofessional whichever way you wish to view it. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
