Joseq7 Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 Let's not call a spade a gardening implement. Home team A wants to run 15 heats to theoretically build up as much of a lead as possible. Away team B wants as few heats ran to theoretically limit their deficit. You can put any and all teams in the league for A and B. Each and every one of them. Fact. It's not cheating it's professionalism. It's naive to call it anything else. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stevehone Posted September 25, 2022 Report Share Posted September 25, 2022 I saw Poole use sawdust before a meeting a while ago to get it on and worked very well too after torrential rain, should all tracks have a stash of sawdust to use if necessary? I’ll admit it was the first time in about 20 years I’ve seen it used, but it done the job Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
