Not quite true. 2nd leg abandoned after 9 heats - 3 races short of the 'result stands'. Whilst I have simpathy for Workington, if they couldn't (for whatever reason) re-arrange for a second attempt at completing the fixture, Ipswich were ahead at the time of the stoppage and rightly go through to the final.

If it's under new ownership, why not?

Some Scunthorpe fans behind me (3rd and 4th bend, too! Looking straight down the home straight), thought the same thing. As did I, I might add. -

Do you know the meaning of the word 'provisional'? Nothing wrong with clubs saying what will happen IF they get through. Well done Cookie on the win. Deserved it on the day. Pity the gate wins were a bit lop-sided (always favoured the inside gates), a couple of decent overtakes, but, again, not the greatest of meetings, which seem to drag on, even if you take the hold ups after Auty's crash out of the equation. Couldn't see the point of a 20-odd minute interval, especially when the start was delayed by 20 minutes, when you consider 3 riders in the meeting and numerous officials and fans had to head to Newcastle for a 7.30pm start. -
Workington V Ipswich Lc S/f 13/10
StevePark replied to dontforgetthefueltapsbruv's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
With Ippo 2 up on aggregate. I'm guessing Ippo will go through to the final as Worky won't want to stage another Double Header next week (my guess. I don't actually know, of course!). -

Sheffield V Ipswich 11th October 2012
StevePark replied to RS50's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
It's not 'over two legs' though, is it? It's two seperate matches. -
Newcastle V Workington Sunday 14th
StevePark replied to scaramanga's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
It depends on the agreement with the Rugby club as far as stadium rent is concerned. It could be that the agreement is for each meeting and a double header might cost more for rental (I obviously don't know, which is why I say "could"). There will be two lots of points money, two lots of away travel money, four sets of tyres and perhaps extra medical cover expenses too. The tyre cost alone will be in the region of £1200. As a recent guide, Somerset recently charged £23 for the double header with Newcastle, whilst the return double header at Brough was £25. -
Pct And Averages

Can't argue with that. Now we have rolling averages, perhaps all matches should be included. -
Pct And Averages
StevePark replied to dontforgetthefueltapsbruv's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
You're original argument didn't include the KOC. You stated "Thats what I was saying to a mate last week who was convinced they did. However there is no more reason for them not to count than the north/south split League Cup fixtures from the start of the season that do so my mates view is not completely stupid albeit wrong!" The KOC isn't included because teams ride an un-equal number of matches, this 'back in the day' when the Premier Trophy had an equal balance of teams in each group, so all teams (use to) ride the same number of matches in the PT. -
Pct And Averages
StevePark replied to dontforgetthefueltapsbruv's topic in SGB Championship League Speedway
Yes there is. All teams were involved in that tournament, whereas Plymouth are not in the play-offs/PCT, so not all teams are involved. -

He doesn't (as far as I know) and his PL average is higher than Steve W's anyway!
