Good stuff

Fantastic news. Tea time kick off maybe? There is a big race meeting on the 24th and would fit a TV double header after the Aus v NZ game.

I'd have guessed the keepmoat game will be the 25th then if there is a race meet on the 24th

Can't see Sky agreeing to that one. I shall be there regardless though

Hi Wilf where you been hiding, nice to see you back.
