We'll Try Again

The rain was the winner at Armadale on Friday night but we have every intention of restaging the match later in the season.

Although we were always up against a poor weather forecast on Friday we thought there was a chance that the match could go ahead as no rain had fallen at the track into the early afternoon and the rain clouds were actually being pushed back west for a time in the afternoon. However, when the rain began to fall just before 3 it soon became obvious that our opener would be delayed.

The match had created a lot of interest and it is the intention to bring the Aces back later in the season. With the Aces also being a Friday night racetrack then finding the date may not be easy.

We had a record breaking number of advance ticket sales for the match and supporters are reminded that these tickets will be valid for next Friday's match against Berwick or any match after that until they are used.

Last night's new look match magazine which would have been on sale for £2.80, will now be offered as a package with next next Friday's programme for £4. For those not wishing the Belle Vue programme it will be possible to purchase the Berwick programme for the new regular price of £2.80.

Max Clegg and Sam Masters did manage some action last night helping Wolverhampton to a big away win over Coventry. Sam scored 5 and a bonus and it was 2 and a bonus for Max.
