What absolute shambles of a meeting.

Official start time 19:30 Actual tapes up 20:05

4 Heats tractor racing and interval.

Then the rain came down and created havoc for all riding.

Oh and do not say all the track prep prior was necessary to get it on and then proceed to delay and wait for the rain.

It amazes not only me, but many ardent Belle Vue stalwarts.

How a GP will go down with this type of meeting management is beyond anyone's comprehension.

I was happy with the 9 o’clock finish which seems inline with other tracks out there, maybe slightly better. 


Havoc? I was there and missed it. Please elaborate. 


I would imagine it will go down similar to all the World Cup, SON, British Finals, Play Off finals etc have gone down. 
 

Don’t forget to order a new axe for next season.

Writing nonsense again?

The tapes up at 20:05 will have been about heat 5. 

The whole meeting was completed by 21:05

There was one faller in the entire meeting. (Matt Marson slid off when he was being passed and tried to turn the bike harder to defend his position).

The only thing that spoilt anything was the rain.  You don't get the best racing in the rain (although there were still more passes than the Premiership play-off final second leg).

Don't worry mate.   The meeting didn't start at 8.05pm.  (The poster you are replying to is a known troll with a history of making up lies). 

However the meeting did finish at 9.05pm.   95 minutes from start to finish is very acceptable.  Rain certainly affected the spectacle, (as it did for the SoN), but even so, only 1 rider fell all night.  Chad Wirtzfeld was worth the admission alone, coming from 15 minute handicap to win.

All that is needed for the GP is for the FIM and let the usual BV track staff get on with it in their usual impressive way.  Can't wait for a G.P. at the best track in the world,

The only nonsense on here is YOUR TROLLING.

It is factual that the meeting started at 20:05, I was their with several Belle Vue season ticket holders.

Up to heat 9 the weather, although raining from heat 6 had not affected the racing with scores equal at 27-27.

From heat 10 onwards races directly affected by the rain with 5-1 to Belle Vue in 3 consecutive heats.

In the Premiership play off the races were affected by the weather and delays in having heat 4 interval to wait for the rain.

All in all a lot needs changing with the way the meetings are run and a more professional approach.

Particularly the weather and timing of breaks, frequency of tractor racing and much more.

The crazy part of all this is the rose tinted glasses everyone appears to look at speedway at the moment in this country.

It is on its knees and all and sundry think all is well, look at Birmingham and round the boards.

Time to change with avengeance and put all behind that needs leaving behind including doddering trolls

Please let us know how you would do it?

You mentioned we need to change the weather but hand on heart we’re going to struggle with that.
