Tonight's meeting is finely balanced. Hopefully we win by enough to clinch the bonus point.. but if not, the season's over. Not a good way to end. In the past there were some form of speeches and rider presentations etc. Will there be any tonight? Does the programme include a list of "thank yous" ? Hopefully we make the final and Friday becomes a bit of a gala night. Fingers crossed.

The play-off system certainly spoils end-of-season farewells. When Belle Vue lost to Ipswich last week, I noted the Aces in the back of a truck, preparing their goodbye speeches. Unfortunately, 90 per cent of the Manchester crowd had disappeared, no doubt gutted by the result and/or keen to get the kids home. Going out with a whimper, right enough.
Oh for the days of rider capers with flour and water and the Monarchs setting fire to Ian Hoskins’ hat. Y’know, simpler times of assault and arson.
Can’t make it to Ashfield tonight, but my schedule’s clear for a trip on Friday, when I hope we give the Pirates a jolly rogering. Go get them Cheetahs, lads.

We used to have a Presentation Dance but the management, who laterly ran it, dropped it for various reasons, surely the Supporters Group could've taken back running one.
