Coventry Bees meeting tonight has been postponed.
The start was put back to 8pm but the meeting against Eastborne at Brandon was called off.
The Bees have offered the following information regarding refunds:
"COVENTRY Speedway can provide the following information to supporters who hold re-admission tickets from Friday’s postponed fixture against Eastbourne.
The club would like to first of all apologise to supporters of both teams for being unable to stage the meeting due to the localised, heavy rain which hit the stadium around an hour before start-time.
The promotion, referee and both sets of riders were keen for the match to take place if at all possible, and had intended to delay the start, but it then became clear that the circuit had taken on too much water and it was in nobody’s interest to stage a farcical event.
Supporters with re-admission tickets can now take one of two options:
1. Supporters can write into the stadium, enclosing their ticket, for a full refund of their admission fee. In addition to this, as a concession, Coventry Speedway will provide a £10 admission voucher for use at a future home meeting.
2. The re-admission ticket can be used as normal at a future home meeting, starting on Monday night against Swindon. Once again, as well as admission to the meeting, a £10 admission voucher for use at a further home meeting will be provided.
We hope these arrangements at least provide some consolation to supporters following a hugely frustrating evening, in which conditions were dry literally two miles away from the stadium."
