Work has continued all week to ensure that Armadale is ready for the opening meeting against Glasgow tonight.

Electricians, mechanics and volunteer helpers have chipped in with Doc Bridgett, Ronnie Anderson and their team, battling against bad weather at times. There is still work to be done on Friday, and volunteer help would still be welcome, but the work will be completed.

As usual the weather is the biggest enemy to the meeting - all we can do about that is cross fingers.

The cost of repairing the vandals' damage is becoming clearer and seems sure to be in excess of ?5,000. The promotion will consider ways of possibly recouping some of this but for the time being, would simply ask that our fans support the various fundraisers we have, wherever you can.
