Grachan Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 8 hours ago, 4BM said: Hopefully Morris and co get hold of this early doors and set a standard, ridiculous call off, Sheffield should be awarded the away win, home season ticket holders given free meeting I.e KO Cup, the penalty for Buster being one less meetings income might make him not try cheat the system again I agree. Should be awarded 0-75 everytime there is a call off like this where the meeting could unquestionsbly gone ahead. Promoters doing this kills people's enthusiasm. Someone should have gone there yesterday to investigate it. We might have a situation where Jason Doyle misses a match through no fault of his own and gets a fine or a ban yet promoters can do this. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpeedwayFan91 Posted April 23 Author Report Share Posted April 23 Lynn usually show us a picture or video of the track around the usual race time to show us how bad it is… we didn’t get that last night for some reason… haha 4 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps you needed the Leicester track staff to travel over and show you how to do it properly... we do owe you one Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TINYS Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Rohan Tungate gets a fine for trying to get to a meeting from Poland same could happen to Doyle yet Buster calls off a meeting because he said the forecast was rain, well the forecast wasn't for rain and it was perfect weather for speedway. Will be interesting to see if anything becomes of his shenanigans. (again) 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I have evidence that shows there's absolutely no way supporters could even get their cars on the car park. Nothing to be investigated here https://x.com/SpeedwayShamble/status/1782712538981073079 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FishersGate Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 So did it rain or not? If not then why would buster not put a meeting on? I don't get the logic? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Flappy Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Nice one Buster. Nice dry track at the showground that could've been used (well if the shale hadn't have been dug up) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

JoeW436 Posted April 23 Report Share Posted April 23 Looks like we’re at a point where meetings can be postponed cos a team don’t fancy it, what a shambles. 1 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I can well recall standing in Sheffield car park on 18 August 2022 at 7.30pm on race night in blazing sunshine (shorts weather) with no rain having fallen in the past two days but no speedway because the match had been called off on Tuesday because apparently Sheffield couldn't get the track ready. I have little time for Chapman but it irks me that a promoti9n that is equally guilty is whinging like a 12 year old. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WembleyLion Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 (edited) So Tarasenko quit on Tuesday! I wonder if he was planning to turn up on Monday before it was called off? Edited April 24 by WembleyLion 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
szkocjasid Posted April 24 Report Share Posted April 24 This confuses me more, if Tarasenko quit, then he'd get a 28 day ban & Lynn would be allowed a facility. So Lawson & Brennan are decent guests, r/r for Tarasenko means everyone gets an extra ride, that doesn't weaken them at all, so why call it off? *It doesn't occur to me that it may have been due to one particular weather forecast.

tellboy Posted May 1 Report Share Posted May 1 New date for the re-staging is the 16th of May.Bit peed off really as i bought a season ticket for this year and i booked all my holidays around the Lynn matches.Now i miss this one due to being on holiday.This one shouldn't have been called off in the first place and now it is costing me.Not very happy to say the least,won't be getting a season ticket next season as it stands. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
