Overall , SIX matches against Scunthorpe ( nothing against Scunthorpe), will be sick to death of seeing them. this sport really is on death row, even for a die hard like me yet again, we have the fixtures before we have all seven riders. Ridiculous . At least we csn look forward to winning the wooden spoon again. I would think other clubs could have a similar situation with regionalized competitions & KOC draw not taking in to account end of season play offs.

Thank goodness we have 9 weeks empty to fit in a potential Semi final and Final of KOC Final of the BSN Trophy and that’s if they were all to be done in May June July. still got August and September to get some paint on the walls get my speedway friends round and watch that stuff dry for a Fridays night entertainment.

I certainly hope KOC & BSN fixtures are raced while there are plenty of spare dates. No excuse for all the finals to be in October again (that wouldn't surprise me lol) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Really need the weather to play ball then. Fingers crossed. I did notice that, certainly hope the weather plays ball & we don't have to run on till the end of October again.

Similar three week gap in May between May 12 and June 2 looks like reserved dates for BSN and KO Cup semis. Just hope we progress in both competitions otherwise it's going to be a pretty sparse time. Most clubs have a back loaded fixture list being busy in August. Really need the weather to play ball then. Fingers crossed. April 21 will almost certainly be a Glasgow-Redcar KO Cup meeting but will it be at Glasgow or Redcar, both being Friday tracks. The second leg can't be run on April 28 as Redcar are racing Scunthorpe in the BSN competition. A Sunday meeting perhaps as the May gap looks to be for Semi finals. Will be a lot simpler if Berwick win through! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveLyric2 Posted January 16, 2023 Report Share Posted January 16, 2023 As Flagrag suggested previously the suggested date for the Leicester v Poole meeting is Easter Saturday 8th April. Potentially the return at Poole would be Wednesday 12th April. Both dates are unconfirmed at the present time whilst rider availability is sought and confirmed. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cast1rn Posted January 17, 2023 Author Report Share Posted January 17, 2023 Why have meetings been scheduled for the week of the World Cup when we have multiple weeks of zero speedway to look forward to. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the compilers forgot. The two PL meetings on the Thursday will have riders missing and limited guests available. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
