Not sure who is at home! Considering it is a Mon I am assuming it is Wolves vs Sheffield? Yeah, I'd put Wolves vs Sheffield on Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

So could even get none at all. I don't think they want to ride While I don't disagree that it's an early call off the Met Office app suggests general rain rather than just light showers. I think you are probably right though, they are petrified of a small crowd which tv and rain would almost guarantee. Although it's another school holiday date wasted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fifteen quid sounds reasonable.... And just like last night's tractor laps coverage, no commentary needed..... 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FromBendThree Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 Good call. Riders don’t want to know when AFA is wet. Been proved in past. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Haza Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 Nothing to do with tv cameras being there and small crowd turning up ? chances are tv cameras won’t return again this season to KL so job done bigger crowd when it’s rearranged financially it’s common sense .

SPEEDY69 Posted August 21, 2022 Report Share Posted August 21, 2022 (edited) https://www.xcweather.co.uk/forecast/King's_lynn I'm not fussed they've called it off but because of the weather? Just be honest. Peterborough rearranged one under a flimsy excuse, why can't they just say we couldn't field a side or it jeopardises our business, we'd understand.

tellboy Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Good call imo,weather is looking dodgy and I suppose calling off in plenty of time at least gives the fans at home another match to watch tonight.If they had called off today I'm sure Eurosport wouldn't have put the Wolves v Sheffield fixture on tonight.Having said that the weather for Monmore isn't appealing neither for today.

Bunce Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 The weather for Wolverhampton this afternoon looks pretty dire according to the rain radar, so I'm surprised Eurosport have taken the risk of televising it. Lets hope the risk pays off and the meeting goes ahead? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect they could have whethered either the fact it's on telly OR a dodgy forecast, but both together would have meant one man and his dog I'd imagine. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
PhilTheAce Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 Joke call off. There wasn’t enough rain about to get it called off and todays dry nice warm day prove that. we all have to race on TV in front of poor crowds. Speedway shoots itself in the foot. It really does 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It’s going to be dry till about 10pm. Maybe later. Yesterdays forecast wasn’t even enough to call it off really. Not with how well buster is at sorting tracks out. business sense might be wise yes. I agree. if Jorgensen wasn’t injured they would have ridden is my guess 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

PhilTheAce Posted August 22, 2022 Report Share Posted August 22, 2022 If kings lynn don’t manage to have a home match on TV let’s hope they get less of the TV money. They shouldn’t get the same as others. if I’m right kings lynn not been at home on TV yet???? Can someone confirm Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
