Why does every muppet and his donkey have to add politics or some slur into every serious conversation about the corona virus?? ] because they are muppets and donkeys. this used to be a speedway website. sadly degenerated...

This topic is one of those where politics, opinions and speedway are intertwined
If we could focus on the speedway aspect (as much as possible) moving forward it would be appreciated

It’s just a bit of a risk and tonight they are still advertising tickets so is it not sold out?

Have just deleted a post from someone who asked if the promoter would "man up" and give ticket holders a refund
I have little doubt an announcement regarding refunds will come in due course. Having a go at a promoter 30 minutes after a major traffic light announcement which potentially scuttles the biggest event of the season is not acceptable.

Looks like this event will be canned thanks to old Cindy, bugger. Guess was a good season while it lasted

Thanks for deleting my post Percy. As you as well as everyone else can now see what are people to do regards accommadation, flights to list just 2. Just cancel it full stop, Postponing it is not the answer. I stand by my deleted post

I stand by my deleted post Or perhaps we can wait a day or two to allow the promoter to let this decision sink in so he can make a informed decision. The promoter will be just as devastated as the rest of us about going to red and I'm willing to wager he stands to lose a lot more money than any of us.

Currently deciding what to do for the weekend or just take the loss as flights were only paid for with air points. Not much else to do at the moment.

When's ardens wedding. Gut feeling is this weekend. So come Monday red we go. Could be wrong. But know it's this month. 100% it wont happen until after the wedding. Hoping wedding is Waitangi weekend. Her stocks will fall through the floor if she gets her wedding out of the way and then turns the light red. Hopefully she goes off shore for honeymoon and can't get a spot in MIQ! YEAH RITE, TUI ADD that one. 100% you said. Can't wait for your next prediction.

Breaking news, the wedding is postponed.
However, on Sunday, when announcing New Zealand's first confirmed community spread of the infectious COVID-19 variant, she confirmed the nuptials were off.
"My wedding will not be going ahead ... such is life," she said.
"I am no different to - dare I say it - thousands of other New Zealanders who have had much more devastating impacts felt by the pandemic.

SHe just used to break out the baby pictures when there was something unsavoury for the public to swallow - so this is just par of the course.

With Rhythm & vines set down for easter, cancelled yesterday, I doubt if this event will go ahead, Bruce should make the call now, rather than let people cling to hope.  .
