Trouble with Leicester I’m told is the track is the lowest part of that area so when it rains all the rain rolls down to the track so not easy to fix  when had lots of rain

If the track is the lowest part of the area, why do I walk uphill from the car park to the track?

There is the very large grass area alongside the stadium which must be 3 or 4 metres above the track level.

Speedway fans are a pretty hardy bunch, they must be given the stuff they put up with, so, whilst some will be disappointed, most will attend the next time..

And those who plan to attend, booking hotels, or travelling from 100's of miles away, will, by now I am sure, have realised that such an undertaking is fraught with potential disappointment...

I always used to plan my cycle speedway trips with visits to speedway tracks on the way there / home, rarely do that now due to the more frequent call offs. Speedway has become a home crowd & streaming event, mostly.
